@@NeXuS_TL_YOOS Thanks for watching. There are obviously better wheels out there. But for a first wheel at a budget price the G920 is a good option. Cheers!
Had this wheel for 5 years this Christmas, exactly the same one and still working perfectly! Got it at Christmas 2016 and it’s still going strong excellent equipment. I use the G29 version
I’m sure you are desensitised to the amount of love this video is getting but, it’s deserves ALL of it. IT IS SO GOOD!!!! You covered everything. You explained it. And the video/b-roll is INSANE. Keep it up
This is by far the best and most in depth review of the logitech gear. Great video man. I got mine with the shifter recently and its a lot of fun, sure beats the controller.
I’ve just got all my new Fanatec kit but I cannot highly recommend the G920 enough. For the money these are superb! Lasted 2 years us into nearly every night and didn’t show any wear and never a fault...ever! They are brilliant as a first set up.
Thanks for watching and commenting. Good to see someone with a positive experience posting about it. Sometimes it's only ppl with problems that post. Cheers
@@jaywolfyz can say it’s quite fun I just got mine for Amazon a couple days ago all I got is gran t for it I wanna get dirt for it tho cause the little bit of rally course on there is really fun on the wheel
Damn, i must admin, after watching so many unboxing videos on phones,gear,computer parts and many other this one is the best one i watched so far every little detail you point out and every aspect i really must admit, man this is the best unboxing video i ever watched! You really need to keep up doing these type of unboxing videos ! Keep up man, i really appreciate your work and every detail you are doing. Keep up the good work man have a good one!
@@BallisticTech alright man. Dirt 2, Project Cars 2. Played Snowrunner the other night with it in cockpit view and it was a really enjoyable chilled time. Nice to not have a stressful time driving.
@@gavancorrigan8813 Oh nice. I hadn't considered Snowrunner. I'm mainly seen ppl play that with controller. Glad you're enjoying it. For the price it seems like a great wheel.
Bought this off Amazon, and it showed up. The wheel worked fine, but the cable for my pedals was frayed and cut in half. Ordering a new one and hopefully that dosen't happen again. Definitely be careful to not put pressure of the pedal cable since it's not that thick.
I just got one of these wheel setups. Enjoying it a lot. Your video was helpful finding some new games to try out and things to consider. Thanks and keep it up!
Sorry that reply was meant for another comment. Yeah I think in terms of features for the price this gen wheel is great. At least now that the price has come down below $300. These launched back in 2015 and the industry has moved towards belt and direct drive wheels. Makes me wonder what Logitech will be going for next gen.
@@BallisticTech do you think it’s a good choice to pick it up this Black Friday for ~$200 (it’s at 250 right now) or wait for next gen wheels ? I primarily play Forza Horizon 4 on my gaming laptop (on the go) and Xbox One at home. I won’t be upgrading to Xbox series X as of now as Forza horizon 5 is coming to Xbox one anyway and The G920 is going to be compatible with series X. Keeping all these points in mind you think it’s good to buy this Black Friday ?
@@manav850 The logitech G923 is already out. I have a video on it on the channel. I also received one from logitech and will have an unboxing of it out soon. For $200 the G920 is a pretty good wheel. The G923 does add extra buttons. +/-, a 2 direction dial and return button (like the G29). Right now the G923 is $400 but the price might go down around black friday as well.
If you still have these wheels, Look at a product out of the UK that you can buy directly from them or Ebay. It has a pressure-sensitive mechanism and a linear potometer. The pressure-sensitive comes with four different parts that you put in place giving you different preload adjustments. talking to people in leagues I race they are a vast improvement on the stoke Logitech brake pedal and probably about 90% as good as an actual load cell brake pedal (which is what really matters as pedals go. It's called a trueBrake.
very qualitative video, a lot of details and informations and as french speaking person I didn't had issue to understand your explaination so well done.
Hey man I've been a sim racer for over a year and im glad your getting back into it. Loved the intro that was funny but thats how we all started. Wish you the best of luck on your sim racing journey. I subscribed and like the vid cant wait to see more :)
Thanks for watching. That seems like a good price after everything that went on during lockdown. That also seems like a great approach to getting into sim racing. Learn the sims, cars, and what you like and are good at. Then identify what and how upgrades might help you do what you want to do. Resale value on wheels seems to be fairly good atm.
I've found Sim Racing to be a great hobby to get into. But I've been into racing games for a long time. As I've gotten more into Motorsports I've found I want to experience more realistic driving experiences. If you can try it I definitely recommend doing so. Maybe find a store like Microcenter that has a Sim rig set up. Also if you have a friend with a while maybe you can borrow it or go to their place to try it out. Stay safe!
I'm new to Sim Racing. Basically just practice and single player with a controller to start. It's tough but, I'm still learning about car control and feel, setups etc. I'm going to buy a G 923 for PS4 as my first wheel. I've noticed nobody has done a recent update on this wheel as far as, is it still a good starter wheel in 2022. Also game compatibility and so on. Thanks.👍
Thanks for this indepth review. I feel as if I know everything about the wheel. I imagine everything you have said will apply to the G923 as well. Good stuff!
th-cam.com/video/_dXfYnR-Y7E/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching. I have just as in depth of a video about the G923. I think the TrueForce adds something to the experience but not sure everyone will feel it's enough to justify the additional cost. But in the end the MSRP of the G923/G29 has been reduced to match what it's been going for at retail stores pre-covid. And they'll be offering both "tiers" of the wheel together for a while. So you have the choice of picking the G923 or saving cash and getting the previous gen.
WOW, such an underrated TH-camr. you made the video like a TH-camr with 1-2 mill subs but I was surprised only 4000 views and 14k subs :( you need more hype thanks for the video helped a lot
Thanks for watching! And thanks so much for commenting! Knowing that people enjoy the content helps motivate me so much more to keep making videos! Cheers!
Noticed on the pedals you did both your left and your right foot when braking. Is that something to do with drifting? I was was taught to drive using my right foot for gas and for brake. The left foot was only ever used in a standard/manual transmission.
Left foot braking is used a lot in motorsport. Formula cars and many GT/LMP cars don't have or don't make use of a clutch paddle. Some have a clutch paddle on the wheel. In these cars and even sometimes in a car with a clutch pedal it's considered faster to brake with your left foot. It saves time versus moving over from the gas with your right foot. And you can do things like blending gas + brake to balance the car. Sometimes you'll even see onboard pedal cams where the driver taps the brake with his left foot as he's approaching a corner. This is to make sure there's no gap between the brake pads and disc. When driving manual cars like an older MX-5 I switch between left and right foot braking depending on the corner. If I have to down shift I right foot brake and heel toe downshift. If it's a faster corner with no downshift or I just need to balance the car I use my left foot
On PC yes you can use a G29 to play Forza Horizon or any game really. But on Xbox One, and Series S/X the G29 will not work as it's PlayStation and PC wheel. Only the G920 or G923 Xbox version will work on Series X. There are third party tools like a DriveHub and GIMX that can help use unsupported wheels on console but I have not used any.
I haven't noticed any severe input lag that I can attribute. Some titles have slightly more than others. ACC on console for example. And some ppl are way more sensitive to it than others. Some titles have programmed in visual lag for animations like turning the wheel and shifting. But they say the inputs aren't actually delayed and the car reacts immediately. I'm pretty sure this was true of GT Sport at least at launch. The animation of the wheel didn't sync with what the physics was doing. But most ppl doesn't drive in cockpit view for GT anyway.
I am going to be buying this soon, and I was wondering how much of an inconvenience it is to clamp, and unclamp it every time you want to play. I play on pc, and I need space for my mouse and keyboard for whenever I play games that I don't use the wheel on, and I am intending on just clamping the wheel onto my desk, so I was wondering about how long does it take to clamp it on each time, and how long does it take to unclamp it off. I am intending on probably about clamping it on and off about twice a day.
@@BallisticTech yes mate I got it on black Friday. It was $230 for just the wheel and pedals. I got the shifter for 60 bucks it wasn't on sale. In total plus shipping was about $320!
@@grahamkelly8662 yes man. Im playing forza on it and its great it feels really premium. But Im new to it and I can't manage to go on reverse. I have the shifter. Can you please tell me how? Maybe I need to tweak some settings
@@albertomartinez6867 I don’t own a gear shifter and for me, if I want to reverse, it’s automatically set to the brake pedal. Try putting shifter in neutral and hitting the brake pedal. If you are moving and want to reverse, use brake to stop then let go of brake and hit brake again and you should start to reverse. Hope that helps you out.👍
It generally depends on the title and car. Also different games have different assists. In most titles you can use paddles even on cars that have a manual gearbox and vice versa. There's probably a game setting you can change to enable/disable the clutch pedal. In some games using the clutch pedal even on cars that have sequential gearboxes can make you faster. So it's down to looking at the game settings, car gearbox, then finding a balance of realism, speed and comfort that works for you.
I know I'm a bit late to the party, but great video! By far the most detailed video that I have found. I'm thinking about getting a refurbished G29 for $180, and a new Thrustmaster TH8S Shifter to go with it (because it seems a lot nicer than the Logitech shifter,) the G29 and the TH8S should work fine together as long as I plug the shifter USB directly into my laptop, right?
Can confirm.the TH8S is nicer than the Logo shifter. It comes with an adapter to plug into a PC via USB. On PC you can mix and match as many individual peripherals as you like as long as they can act as a standalone USB device. Each will appear as a separate game controller and you'll be able to map them to whatever you wish in the game/Sim. Thanks for watching! Happy racing!
Going to pickup my wheel so I decided to watch this. Edit: Nice video, learned alot while setting up, I'm new to sim racing starting with Forza Horizon 4, I got this wheel so I don't beat my car lol. Will definitely get a shifter soon
Linear means that for every X millimeters of brake you push in you get Y % brake force increase. All the way through the pedal stroke. Because the G29/G920 has the rubber stopper it becomes harder to push in (trying to emulate a real brake). So after a while you push in X mm and you get 2*Y % brake force. Those aren't the real numbers but I hope it gets the point across.
Agreed! When I picked this up the bundles with the G920 shifter and Forza were almost $100 less than the G29 bundles. I actually found a "For Parts" G29 on eBay for $60. Intended to use it just for testing 3D printed mods but ended up fixing it so its primarily what I use at the moment
Thanks for watching. It will come with a power plug for your region if bought from a store/retailer there. I have a section that shows the setup. You plug the pedals into the wheel. Connect the power to the wheel. Organize the cables. Then plug into your PC/Console. Fairly straightforward!
@@BallisticTech if from amazon do you know what cable is included. Could always just buy a separate plug if needed i guess Ah my bad must have missed that bit then. Seems easy enough then. Thanks!
so is it normal for these wheels to have decent input delay? as im watching the video i see that its like a 0.5 second input delay and was wondering if there was a wheel that has no delay like ur driving irl?
I have this problem with my g920 where the wheel is super stiff. I managed to kinda fix it, but now my wheel auto steers the moment i steer into any direction (in forza). How do i fix this?
Just asking is the logitech g920 driving force racing wheel and the logitech steering wheel shifter great to use to learn and practice driving manual for beginner i have to learn manual driving will they be great to learn and practice
I play a lot of ATS. I need to map peddles to the wheel since I am not able to move my feet. I currently use a ps4 controller to play ATS. Of the two wheels, which would you recommend for that? (Holding the button down like you would the Trigger Buttons on a controller.) I also have limited space./funds I think you did an amazing in-depth review. Thank you.
What would recommend for a beginner that really wants to get into sim racing? I did my research on logitech and thrustmaster, but I feel like Sheldon Cooper trying to decide on what I want 😅 new to the channel

Hey I have a question, is the input lag of the wheel severe, because I’m getting this wheel soon and I don’t want the racing in games to be delayed.
I haven't noticed any severe input lag that I can attribute. Some titles have slightly more than others. ACC on console for example. And some ppl are way more sensitive to it than others.
Some titles have programmed in visual lag for animations like turning the wheel and shifting. But they say the inputs aren't actually delayed and the car reacts immediately. I'm pretty sure this was true of GT Sport at least at launch. The animation of the wheel didn't sync with what the physics was doing. But most ppl doesn't drive in cockpit view for GT anyway.

@@grahamkelly8662 yes man. Im playing forza on it and its great it feels really premium. But Im new to it and I can't manage to go on reverse. I have the shifter. Can you please tell me how? Maybe I need to tweak some settings
@@albertomartinez6867 I don’t own a gear shifter and for me, if I want to reverse, it’s automatically set to the brake pedal. Try putting shifter in neutral and hitting the brake pedal. If you are moving and want to reverse, use brake to stop then let go of brake and hit brake again and you should start to reverse. Hope that helps you out.👍
G29 and G920 have wrong pics at minute 2:50, otherwise good job. this vid really helped me decide
Yoooo with those shoes and the heel-toe you look like you’re delivering tofu
Maybe I'm part of the Fujiwara Clan!?!?
Maybe you just deliver tofu for your dad
hey nice vid
my question is if you need to use the clutch when using the shift pedals ?
It generally depends on the title and car. Also different games have different assists. In most titles you can use paddles even on cars that have a manual gearbox and vice versa.
There's probably a game setting you can change to enable/disable the clutch pedal.
In some games using the clutch pedal even on cars that have sequential gearboxes can make you faster.
So it's down to looking at the game settings, car gearbox, then finding a balance of realism, speed and comfort that works for you.
Th8s vid is what made me buy one it's coming monday
Mines coming Wednesday
Ayyyyyyyy
if that's the case you could probably put a rubber stopper in the clutch pedal to replicate the feel 12:10
I know I'm a bit late to the party, but great video! By far the most detailed video that I have found.
I'm thinking about getting a refurbished G29 for $180, and a new Thrustmaster TH8S Shifter to go with it (because it seems a lot nicer than the Logitech shifter,) the G29 and the TH8S should work fine together as long as I plug the shifter USB directly into my laptop, right?
Can confirm.the TH8S is nicer than the Logo shifter. It comes with an adapter to plug into a PC via USB.
On PC you can mix and match as many individual peripherals as you like as long as they can act as a standalone USB device.
Each will appear as a separate game controller and you'll be able to map them to whatever you wish in the game/Sim.
Thanks for watching! Happy racing!
@@BallisticTech Awesome, thanks! I was a little confused about how all the different peripherals would coexist, thanks for clearing that up!
Outstanding video! Look forward to more.
damn bro havent seen such an in depth review in a while. A definite sub from me waiting for some more content
Thank you Povilas! I put a lot of time into it so glad you liked it!
Povilas. I haven't seen that name before. Where are you from?
@@BallisticTech hey glad to cheer you up. I'm Lithuanian so there are a lot of strange names you don't see often
@@povilaskirna4108 Ah happy to learn something new! What is new to me is normal to you! Thanks again for watching from Lithuania!
Going to pickup my wheel so I decided to watch this.
Edit: Nice video, learned alot while setting up, I'm new to sim racing starting with Forza Horizon 4, I got this wheel so I don't beat my car lol. Will definitely get a shifter soon
Thanks for watching. Glad you found it informative. Keep racing. Youll learn more and more and keep getting better
im getting the Logitech g29 for Hanukah
i bought the shifter too
wow you wanted to see other comments ha
mazel tov! Happy driving!
@@BallisticTech you to!!!!!
You had me at the intro 😂😂😂
thank you for this video I really needed it
If you're more comfortable with ps4 controls then get the g29. If you're more comfortable with xbox controls then the g920.
Does it spin back, like will It feed through my hands while turning a corner quickly, (like a real car)(and will it be dependent on speed/angle too)
Have u figured out if it does ?
@@Luis-ic3bm nooe
@@piercepromotions6642 dang did u get it?
2:26 Logitech MX518... Best mouse ever made!!!!!!! Would buy them new if i could
They did a re-release with new sensors a while back. But yeah I loved that mouse.
@@BallisticTech They did?! let me grab my wallet
@@TheSupar Yeah I think it's actually only like $20 at Best Buy
I love this video's layout. Perfect guide.
When ever I move my G920 wheel. I can here a sound like the wheel is loose. Is this normal?
What does nonlinear brake mean? I want to get one of these wheels for Christmas
Linear means that for every X millimeters of brake you push in you get Y % brake force increase. All the way through the pedal stroke.
Because the G29/G920 has the rubber stopper it becomes harder to push in (trying to emulate a real brake). So after a while you push in X mm and you get 2*Y % brake force.
Those aren't the real numbers but I hope it gets the point across.
@@BallisticTech yes it did, thank you!
G29 is the best for PC IMO. It has more useful buttons/dials for PC than on the G920. Great wheel for the price.
Agreed! When I picked this up the bundles with the G920 shifter and Forza were almost $100 less than the G29 bundles. I actually found a "For Parts" G29 on eBay for $60. Intended to use it just for testing 3D printed mods but ended up fixing it so its primarily what I use at the moment
wow that was one perfect video. Thanks
So wait. Should I plug this into my pc and update the onboard firmware before plugging it into my ps5?
I think it'll probably work with the drivers on the wheel. But could be worth it just to check. You'll have to download either G-Hub or LGS
Is there a version of Logitech’s G29 wheel and pedals that will work with Apple’s MacBook Pro or Air? Thanks
no but not worth it anyway as there are barely any game that work with Mac's anyway just convert it to windows
Great review definitely want one. Im from uk will it come with a uk mains plug. Also what wires connect etc is it easy. Not great with my tech lol
Thanks for watching. It will come with a power plug for your region if bought from a store/retailer there.
I have a section that shows the setup. You plug the pedals into the wheel. Connect the power to the wheel. Organize the cables. Then plug into your PC/Console. Fairly straightforward!
@@BallisticTech if from amazon do you know what cable is included. Could always just buy a separate plug if needed i guess
Ah my bad must have missed that bit then. Seems easy enough then. Thanks!
I just bought G920. Do I need driving force shifter? Or I can adjust it from the steering wheel?
SUCH A GREAT REVIEW! Good job
14:35 SO THATS WHY IT WAS SLIDING SO MUCH ON MY CARPET. I didn’t know you put that down to make it not slide. ye if u couldn’t tell I’m a dumbass.
No you know and knowing is half the battle! Thanks for watching.
XD
so is it normal for these wheels to have decent input delay? as im watching the video i see that its like a 0.5 second input delay and was wondering if there was a wheel that has no delay like ur driving irl?
Its probably your ping idk though
I have this problem with my g920 where the wheel is super stiff. I managed to kinda fix it, but now my wheel auto steers the moment i steer into any direction (in forza). How do i fix this?
I've seen ppl report this when their frb is inverted somewhere in game or Logitech software
@@BallisticTechthank you! where can I invert that is the fh5 settings do you know that.
@@BallisticTech nvm I found it it works!
Just asking is the logitech g920 driving force racing wheel and the logitech steering wheel shifter great to use to learn and practice driving manual for beginner i have to learn manual driving will they be great to learn and practice
Is this still what you recommend near the end of 2021?
I haven't seen broken logitech product
I play a lot of ATS. I need to map peddles to the wheel since I am not able to move my feet. I currently use a ps4 controller to play ATS. Of the two wheels, which would you recommend for that? (Holding the button down like you would the Trigger Buttons on a controller.)
I also have limited space./funds
I think you did an amazing in-depth review. Thank you.
Hey. Great vid.
Do you recommend any decent wheels that work on Xbox 360?
What would recommend for a beginner that really wants to get into sim racing? I did my research on logitech and thrustmaster, but I feel like Sheldon Cooper trying to decide on what I want 😅 new to the channel
Could I just use the wheel? Without the gas pedals? Also, will that wheel tighten ok on a thin glass top desk
