Review: Logitech Pro racing wheel

The Logitech Pro racing wheel is the first direct drive unit produced by the biggest manufacturer out there. It does come with an expensive price tag. I had issues understanding why it was this expensive, until I actually tested it.

Your review are just the best, nothing is faked, no biais, straight to the point.

[@supercededman]

The TrueForce is amazing. I've turned mine down to 20%, though. Sends vibration feedback through the frame of my aluminium profile rig. Just wow.

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

Personal preference of course but yes, what a sensation it brings extra. I was planning to sell it again after the review and a versus video to fund some other purchase, but... I'm having second thoughts. :D

[@Dave062YT]

Had mine since launch and for me they made it faultless and the only wheel I'll ever need .

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

And FINALLY i understand why you bought it 😁

[@Dave062YT]

@@SimulatedDrivingResource Nice one mate !

[@storypunman]

We have had ours since Nov. 2023, use it almost everyday and love it. I have no problem with the price, worth it for us. I know women that paid $1500.00 for a pair of shoes, and even more for a handbag.

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

Those Chanel bags are a good investment btw 😁

[@storypunman]

@@SimulatedDrivingResource Funny, most women want to buy it new, not used. I will still take my sim gear. They are better off walking around with a plastic bag with a few thousand dollars, than an expensive handbag with loose change.

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

@@storypunman it's the same as with Lego to be fair. If there is a set they don't sell any more, but you really want it, you'll buy it second hand. Condition is everything of course 😎

[@BostonFaith]

Great review as always. Goed bezig en ga vooral zo door!

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

Bedankt voor de aanmoedigende woorden. Wordt zeer zeker geapprecieerd 💙

[@001sander2]

The FFB increases in GT7 as you get better tyres. I turn the FFB down on racing tyres

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

Hmmm... ok... didnt notice that but to be fair, it has been very long since I had long sessions on GT7. I will try it out. Thanks for sharing

[@Bert1986]

Good that it has a good QR system... very important for the many many wheels they have :D ;)

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

Absolutely. 🤣

[@wintertorrent]

The pedals on the used market in the future will be great value

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

Hmmmmm I dunno friend 😕

[@wintertorrent]

@@SimulatedDrivingResource Let's see! haha

[@wintertorrent]

Btw, I got the playseat trophy following your advice and comments from previous videos - thank you so much!! :) Soon to order the T-LCMs also thanks to your video

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

Ahhhh glad to have been of assistance 💙

[@rudiduchateau7854]

Weer een mooi eerlijk verslag. Ik heb er weer van genoten.

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

Mercikes Rudi 💙

[@deebocj]

That thing looks ver refined. That wheel is the perfect size.

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

Size... sure. Shape.... mèh 🙄

[@bratamic1]

*IMPORTANT WARNING*: Logitech ( DO NOT ) carry spares or have service centres. I had to throw my gpro wheel and pedals into the bin for the sake of a $2 part that they DONT sell. They DO NOT carry any form spares and even the smallest issue will result in the unit being bricked. Stick to an item with aftersale support and spares.

[@AKK5I]

Channel name change? Anyways, the Logitech still has a ways to go, it's been I think more than a year now and they haven't even produced a single add-on wheel rim... They literally sponsor McLaren F1

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

Yes sir. Just a bit more "pro" name. And its absolutely incomprehensive that they didnt bring out another wheel yet.

[@PJDobbs]

Great video, bud. I will stick with Moza. I should have went with Fanatec because I'm a wheel whore.

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

Bah, MOZA, Fanatec.... its very much alike. But that truckers wheel of MOZA is 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤

[@eriktosu2368]

E già un po' che lo voglio comprare ma la versione ps5 non è disponibile in questo periodo..

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

Non è possibile acquistare tramite rivenditore?

[@eriktosu2368]

@@SimulatedDrivingResource purtroppo no, solo sul sito.

[@eriktosu2368]

@@SimulatedDrivingResource no scusa c è anche su Amazon però anche lì non è disponibile la versione per ps5

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

@@eriktosu2368 Sì, ora lo vedo. Logitech Pro è sempre stato un po' esclusivo. Un'ultima cosa che mi sento di consigliarvi è di controllare il mercato dell'usato? È lì che ho comprato il mio.

[@reviewforthetube6485]

Just remember fanatec has fullforce coming 😉 when i turn off int on the dd+ its almost like this true force expereince. Many dont realixe fanatec ships these dd wheels at like 11 on the interpelation setting. When turning this off it alloes all of the vibrarions and sounds of the motor through. So alot of people getting thede dd wheels arent even tirning that off its made so when off you get the raw pure ffb effects. Its such a massive massive difference. I wish fanatec would go back to at least dropping it to 6 which used to be what they shipped with. So people that arent used to these wont realize they need to turn that off for that amszing experience. I feel it everywhere. So i cant imagine when fanatec gives the full force effect. Gonna be insane for sure.

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

I know. Am looking forward to it. The feature itself is good, but the implementation needs to be good too. T-dfb for example has only 1 franchise where it is compatible.

[@reviewforthetube6485]

@SimulatedDrivingResource just remember to turn off the interpelation on the dd+ turn it to 0 so you get the raw ffb and the noise/vibration from the motor to pull all of the detail out. It's a massive massive difference. They put it to like 6 to 11 out of the box.

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

@@reviewforthetube6485 oh but it will take some time before I buy that Fanatec. Remind me again in a few months when they are available on the second hand market 😎

[@reviewforthetube6485]

@@SimulatedDrivingResource ok will do! Well worth having best base ive ever owned. I own a somagic alpha also the dd+ just beats everything I've used.

[@RATTMAN]

My biggest issue is the wheel. Since it is the only wheel, it should be round. It is way too hard, even with gloves. Button layout is awkward. I also don't like how my hands fit in the 9/3 area. The wide spoke doesn't allow a firm grip of the wheel. The base FFB settings are overly simplified. Also, you are locked to Logitech ecosystem which is nothing but pedals at the moment.

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

Yeah I'm not over the Moon with shape either. And TM is implementing new control panel for their T818. Perhaps Logitech will follow soon

[@surfwidow]

I bought one used it for a day and was disappointment because it has no extended eco system which it doesnt. But because this is really a wheel for a console user not a PC rig user. If you have a PS5 Buy it! A parent looking for a gift thats easy to decide for Christmas for their kid who is currently using a Lower end Logitech wheel for their Forza Buy it! If you are a serious sim rig user Iracing AC or even ETS2 ATS :) Get something like a Moza R9 or if you have the money a simucube. Its almost the same price! However Simucube wont work on PS5.The reason Logitech is so expensive is because they made basically a £600 wheel but then had to PAY sony and Microsoft for the licences! If you are a PC user not a problem... Also its a big lump and hides up a lot of screen real estate compared to the more compact Moza. It does look like a kids toy. The styling of a bloated G27 was not the way to go... And their peddle have a plastic base rather than metal. I think it is all just a complex mess tbh.

[@barzucci]

Absolutely disagree.

[@robertcarr4172]

You must be the first person to actually like the design of this thing. Haha. Unfortunately until they come out with an actual ecosystem this thing is not to be recommended in my opinion.

[@SimulatedDrivingResource]

Really? Damn I didnt know my taste was so questionnable 😕😕

Correction, 2nd person. 😊

Thank you!!!! I am relieved 😅
