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.

      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.

    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.

    • @BallisticTech
      @BallisticTech  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      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.

    @CommentsAllowed 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    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.

    • @BallisticTech
      @BallisticTech  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      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.

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
      @BallisticTech  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Is budget a concern? If you really want to go with Logitech and price isn't a problem I'd say get the G923. But if you can find the G920 for substantially cheaper and the features of the G923 don't appeal too much the G920 is still a good wheel.
      I put out a video on the G923 and some of the features. I've also been sent a G923 from Logitech and will have an unboxing and impressions for it soon.
      The main other competitor is the TMX Pro for Xbox/PC. And the T 150 Pro and 300 RS for PS4/PC
      If you have any specific questions.

    What does nonlinear brake mean? I want to get one of these wheels for Christmas

    • @BallisticTech
      @BallisticTech  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      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.

      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.

    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?

    • @BallisticTech
      @BallisticTech  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      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.

    • @the_toaster0
      @the_toaster0 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      i believe you are referring to the force feedback. the whole point of using a racing wheel is to get a better feel of the car you a drive, which you dont get on a controller. the game you decide to play is basically coded so when you go over a bump, or youre about to lose your rear end or you crash, it mimics those forces into the wheel. just overall gives you a better idea of when youre about to lose traction and its a more immersive experience

    hey nice vid
    my question is if you need to use the clutch when using the shift pedals ?

    • @BallisticTech
      @BallisticTech  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      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.
