For anyone wondering, yes you can swap the Clutch and Brake pedal placement for easier left foot braking. No modding required. You simply need to disassemble it and slide the pedals off and rearrange them. Just make note of the black spacers between the pedals. One is a slightly different length than the others (middle sized spacer) and if you put that one on the wrong rod it will not fit back together correctly. I never use a clutch, I mainly race GT3 in ACC and doing this made my left foot braking so much more comfortable. A lot less strain on the hips and legs.

Little tidbit of info for new owners: the three red screws on the footrest *should not be removed*, ever, by Fanatec's own guide. They are extremely soft, and prone to being ground to powder with very little torque applied. Should that happen, Fanatec will *not* cover the specific issue under warranty (i.e. the screws stay stuck.).
@Smokabis2 жыл бұрын
I don't think that this is quite accurate, I will explain. I have the inverted version and have removed mine for mounting multiple times when servicing and cleaning without an issue. In the V3 manual it does say that the red screws must not be loosened which are both on the footrest and the side of the unit holding the frame together. "NOTE: Red screws of the ClubSport Pedals V3 must not be loosened." (pasted from the Fanatec V3 manual) On the inverted version all of these screws are black so the manual is a bit more specific about which screws not to loosen. The only reference in the inverted manual to screws that should not be removed is to the screws on the either side of the unit that hold the frame together. "NOTE: Frame fixing screws of the ClubSport Pedals V3i must not be loos-ened." (pasted from the Fanatec V3 inverted manual) If the footplate was not intended to be removed then I think they would have mentioned this in the newer inverted version of the manual and wouldn't have changed the wording. What are your thoughts on this?

You really make high quality videos and these are extremely useful. Not only do you review the item in question in a traditional sense (ie. how the pedals work in-game), you also review the technical and mechanical side, give insight onto the mounting and things like that, that really make you wonder before you buy. Because, not everyone has professional grade mechanical engineering skills, let alone the tools for the job. I'd hate to buy something just to find out, that I'll need a hydraulic drill and a milling machine for the thing to mount. Your videos really help in fleshing out getting the thing you bought into actual operation (or in some cases, maybe realizing that this product would not be for me anyway).

Thanks for the review! I'll add my thoughts on the brake pedal. This was my first load cell pedal set and I was having a hell of a time getting a good feel for the brake. The stock elastomer set up preloads the pedal pretty hard against the mechanical stop, which makes a very unrealistic and troublesome dead zone at the top of the stroke. You must overcome the preload force before the pedal moves and that initial force registers on the load cell in a very non linear way. I replaced one of the original elastomers with an aluminum bushing and trimmed the remaining elastomer by about 5mm and then adjusted the preload so the pedal just barely touched the mechanical stop. Feels and works SO MUCH better now, with a realistic progressive stiffness and nice and linear force response! If you have a lathe or 3d printer, don't waste your money on the brake performance kit! If you're looking at buying this pedal set, plan on doing some DIY mods or paying for the brake performance kit. I'm very impressed by these pedals but the brake is pretty lousy as it comes from the factory IMO.

The problem with these pedals is that the CSL-Elite LC are 100-150 cheaper, and are just as good. The hall affect sensors are crap though. They are influenced by dust or random crap that sneaks into pedals, and tend to be filtered a lot, giving less resolution to what the raw counter says you have. They also tend to give spikes as they are getting older, or with interference from other electronics. These are the same sensors they already used on the V2 pedals, and already there they weren't that good. If you are in the USA it's better to save a few bucks extra for the ProtoSimTech pedals, as they are much sturdier, and better build. Everywhere else I'd go for the CSL-Elite LC and save a buck or save more cash and get a set of HE Sprint (if you can get them).

Brake pedal stiffness is all subjective. On all the F1 teams the mechanics can easily adjust the stiffness and how much travel the driver wants on his brake pedal. I like medium stiffness and about medium to long travel. Some drivers like little to no travel, some like a lot. And other racing series where the teams buy the cars the brake pedal travels more than how you have it. So to be honest I’d have no issue with setting these up to how I like it.

I have a budget Rig with a bar, which holds the wheelbase and Its exactly in the middle, so braking is really really uncomfortable. With thrustmaster Pedals it was easy just to swap the springs in the clutch and brake pedal and configure the clutch pedal as my brake pedal in Assetto Corsa Competizione. Can you judge from your hands-on experience with the pedalset, if that is a manageable task?

I have them for some 2500 hours grinding them at ca.40-80 Kg load at nearly every turn. The only tiny problem i noticed was the pin that attaches arm to the pedal. The sucker actually started twisting slowly due to stresses and went out of the mount hole on one side. When i pulled it out to see whats going i saw a mark in printed from grab screw that secures it. What i did was to file a notch in that pin where screw could recess. That was the only problem and i pushed them so far that the brake pedal plastic add on broke from stress recently. All 3 pedals share common axis that is a solid piece of steel but I think it is chromed just like the pedal arm rod i mentioned above. The pedals are mounted using brass or bronze slide bearings which should be the only thing that wears down. In my opinion I could go like that for another 2.500 hours before the play becomes too big and u would need new bearings. The whole package is made of solid quality materials so if anything happens in 5-10 years u can add some design alterations to make it run. EDIT1: THERE IS ANOTHER ISSUE WITH CSL ELITE WHEELBASE I WANT TO ADDRESS AS I THINK IT CAUSES PEOPLE PAIN IN THE ASS. MICRO FUSE INSIDE IS SO MICRO THAT IT CAN LOOSE CONNECTION ON THE SMALL TABS IN THE MOTHERBOARD (OXIDATION AND THE FACT HOW SMALL THE CONTACT SURFACES BECAUSE WHAT ELSE) WHERE IT SEATS. WHEN IT HAPPENS IT CAN SEND SOME VOLTAGE OR NONE AND IT IS INTERMITTENT. IT WILL TURN OFF OR WILL JUST TURN ,,ON'' LIGHT DURING POWERING ON PROCEDURE. I WAS LUCKY TO MEASURE IT WHEN THAT INTERMITTENT FAULT OCCURRED AND IT SHOWN ONLY FEW VOLTS. THE SOLUTION IS TO TAKE OUT FUSE, REMOVE SOCKET FROM MOTHERBOARD AND JUST SOLDER IN SOME AUTOMOTIVE FUSE. PROBLEM NEVER CAME AGAIN - IT IS A KNOWN OR MAYBE I AM WRONG AND IT IS UNKNOWN SUPER COMMON ISSUE THAT FANATEC WONT FIX. WHEN I SEND AN EMAIL TO FANATEC ABOUT IT THEY SEND BACK THUMBS UP SIGN AND THAT WAS IT.

An alternative method of getting to the brake piston is to just remove the 2, five mm allen bolts on the ends of the crossbar in the bottom that actually holds the pedals.

Hi Barry, have you ever tried to change the clutch spring to the stiffer one? I tried this yesterday with my 2-day old pedals and got quite desperate because one of the screws that are holding that block in the lever does not come out. One side worked fine, but only when i hold both screws simultanously with two screwdrivers. The opposite one turns without getting loose, because something in that block turns with the screw, as if the screw is in a socket that can turn inside the block. When I put the opposite screw in again and twist it, the other screw also twists (difficult to explain in english because I'm a german guy ;)). Can you check this?
@simracinggarage30265 жыл бұрын
Yes, this is an issue with the clutch block. The sleeve that the screws go into rotates freely. And it's hard to get both screws out, as if you loosen one, the other just spins sleeve instead of backing out. I would get 2 nuts that fit the screws. Remove one screw and thread both nuts on it. Re-thread the screw into the sleeve a bit. Then tighten both nuts in a locking configuration against the sleeve side. This will require 2 wrenches. Once done, hold this screw with a hex wrench as you loosen the other stuck screw with another hex wrench. Finally, loosen the 2 nuts and you should be able to remove the screw as it is almost all the way out anyway. Hope this makes sense.

That's one of the benifits of this pedal set. Lot's of tuning options. Allowing most to get these dialed in to their personal preference. Preliminary findings indicate the performance kit is must have for drivers that prefer a stiffer brake pedal for proper brake pedal modulation. The Damper...not sure yet.

@@simracinggarage3026 Yes, wasn't that happy with the stock feel of the brake, but with the performance kit I really like it! Would love to know if the damper kit will add anything to the feeling! :)

You have a delivery smoother than a slow flowing river of Lithium grease, Barry. 🙂 Do you have any remarks regarding the effectiveness of the vibrating weight system on the accelerator and brake after testing? And thank you for the attention to detail. I’m taking my first tentative steps towards building a rig from the ground up, and your reviews have been an invaluable resource thus far. Liked, subbed with regards from England.

You can barely feel the vibration at all - even when wearing socks. If I really focus on it, I can JUST barely feel it, but during a race you don't feel crap. It's just so weak.

Hi, thanks to your video I realized I'm an idiot and cancelled my order... I ordered a usb adapter and didnt need to bc it came with the handy dandy cable in the box. I just recently switched to PC from console, PC wasn't recognizing my pedal set. Saved myself some money, lol. THANKS!

New subscriber here. All I can say is WOW Barry! Nevermind the pedals, but your heel-n-toe technique is just phenomenal! Is it too late for a 63 year old “going back to sim racing since the 80’s” to learn this technique?

The brake performance kit and stiffer clutch/throttle springs are key with this pedal set. Even using the softest combination of elastomer springs available with the kit is a massive improvement over the factory foam in the brake.
@bobbychilds30805 жыл бұрын
P.S. I've had this pedal set around 3 years now. A little squeakiness has developed in the throttle and it took a long time to find my "sweet spot" with the performance kit, but I love these pedals

When moving the pedal plates, I found that the holes have too much space for the bolts... So it’s hard to mount it straight to the pedal arms... And the bolts can’t hold the plates straight so when you brake, the pedal plates eventually gets tilted... Also it’s hard to move the plates any ways due to the vibration motors. And another problem is that (again with the pedal arms/plates) there is about 3 millimeter dead zone at the start of the pedal movement... I think it was a mechanical problem since I weren’t able to fix it with the software... Also at the dead zone, the pedal springs seems to press much lighter so the pedal is very light during deadzone, and gets working properly when you get out from the dead zone. Can’t feel it too much during races but if you pay attention to it, it’s annoying...

Barry, excellent review as always! Was looking forward to YOUR review of the V3 for quite some time, BUT honestly I was a little bit shocked that you didn't test the Brake performance kit + damper kit (stiffer throttle!). Everybody keeps saying this offical mod is essential with this pedals! Also hoping for a review of the Heusingveld Sprint pedals soon. Looking for an upgrade from my T3PA Pro and need to know which of these sub 1000$ pedals have the better price/performance value!

Thanks man! I just got the CSL Elite V1.1 base and wheel (PC/XBox). Trying to decide what pedals to replace my G920 pedals with (currently having to have my g920 hooked up to run as a hub since the pedals don't have usb). Anyway, I'm trying to decide if I should go with the CSL Elite Pedals or these Clubsport v3 pedals. Watched your review on both and has helped me decide on the Clubsport V3 pedals. Sure, they're more money but I think in the long run I will like them better. Kudos Barry!
