About this deal

I've always been a fan of racing games in the arcade, and bringing the experience home is a childhood dream come true. I only recently made enough space for a desk big enough to attach racing wheels and have been searching for the perfect set. Usually, the quality of the wheel doesn't affect my enjoyment of the simulation experience. Still, the TX leather edition felt different when unboxed, giving the impression that this would be somewhat more intense and serious. The racing wheel servo base is designed for smooth steering without any jolting. We’ve only noticed these issues when the racing wheel servo base isn’t stable enough to support the game mechanics. If you were wondering whether all the jargon about the servo means holds any weight, I could tell you that after one race, I was a total convert to the dual-belt system. It's the smoothest racing wheel I've used, with zero notches felt in subtle turns, as with some gear-driven models. It's the most substantial resistance I've felt, too.

Les volants ne sont pas compatibles avec les jeux en mode CLOUD GAMING ou STREAMING (notamment ceux du GAME PASS, Xbox Remote Play, PlayStation®Plus, GeForce NOW, Luna, …). En mode CLOUD GAMING ou STREAMING, seules les manettes de jeu standard sont compatibles. A constant force will keep the same level in time. When a game decides to apply a force of x% of what the wheel can do, the "Constant" will keep that force at the same level. Compatible with Xbox series X, Xbox One, and PC, this racing wheel servo base is quite a representative example of its kind. Getting comfy is important, though. The TS-XW can be either mounted to a table with the included clamp, or screwed directly to the mounting points on a racing chair. I'm still waiting for my new chair so I used the clamp. It's not an ideal setup, though, but the clamp does at least hold the wheel nice and firmly to the table. Note: On Xbox Series X|S, your racing wheel also works with all Xbox One™ compatible games listed in the LIST OF XBOX ONE™ GAMES section.The base is entirely plastic on the outside, though trimmed in a tasteful red brushed metal effect finish. It's also very heavy, but then this is where all the magic happens. Inside you find a brushless motor with its own special cooling system which Thrustmaster says is there to support "many hours" of e-racing. It gets a little warm, but nothing you'd ever say is hot, so it's doing its job. Example: A driving simulator game will usually use the constant force to simulate the G-Force. It will create a constant force at 0% but, depending on the speed and the wheel angle, the force will be increased accordingly.

And even though it's a serious performer, it doesn't get particularly noisy, even with a sizeable looking vent on the rear. You hear some air whoosing but that's about it apart from the sound of the motor when you turn. A periodic force will vary in time according to the type of periodic effect, amplitude and frequency. Because a periodic force includes an offset that has the same behavior as a constant force, some games will create a periodic force and merge an effect they would render for a constant force (like the G-Force) and a periodic effect (bumping road).Usually, when something’s off or your wheel feels clunky, it’s often a problem with the racing wheel base as the foundation of your setup. But Thrustmaster isn’t one of those wheels that’ll make you feel robbed of a luxurious experience. Remarque : Sur Xbox Series X|S, votre volant fonctionne également avec tous les jeux Xbox One™ compatibles. Liste disponible dans la catégorie LISTE DES JEUX XBOX ONE™. How to wake your TX racing wheel if it is no longer recognized on Xbox One™ or PC (i.e. in the event of firmware loss) PC XboxOne™ Understandably, some of these terms might scare some of you – but don’t worry. Even though this wheel is a piece of the finest technology in its branch, it’ll take you just a few seconds to set it up. Another thing worth mentioning here is the upgradeable firmware. By installing Thrustmaster drivers, you’ll also get access to the latest firmware version. When it comes to gaming on a PC, the upgradeable firmware ensures the best possible experience.

The TX Servo Base Racing Wheel, a standalone version of the official wheel base for Xbox One of its acclaimed TX Racing Wheel. Hinweis: Auf Xbox Series X|S funktioniert Ihr Rennlenkrad auch mit allen Xbox One™-Spielen, die kompatibel sind. Die Liste finden Sie in der Kategorie LISTE DER XBOX ONE™-SPIELE. The TX (clamp) never shifted once during my testing, even on my cheap desk with its waxy wood finish. In this game, to ensure correct bindings to suit your current Wheel Rim, please navigate to the Controls menu, highlight your Wheel Base from the list of detected devices, Edit Device and Load Device Preset. It looks great and feels great, and it just so happens to be great to use too. I've driven a few racing cars over the years and none of them had a wheel this good. It's very comfortable to use for extended periods. Alcantara is better than leather in this situation and the TS-XW benefits from that Sparco license in spades. The wheel is perfectly proportioned so you're never stretching your fingers to shift up or down.Range of rotation is another important factor to consider. Most wheel bases will provide a good 900° of rotation. This is usually enough for most racing sims to feel realistic, and all of the options on our list provide at least that. Build quality is just as important as any other factor when choosing a wheel base. A metal construction would be preferable, but you will rarely find wheel bases made entirely of metal (outside of direct drive options). More often than not, it will be of a sturdy plastic design on the outside, but it should be strong and well put together. Compatibility TX racing wheel servo system is made to interact with the racing wheel to allow for much smoother and more precise movements. This ultra-responsive technology might seem hard to control at first – but you’ll get used to it. Innovation By Thrustmaster

What’s generally the first thing you notice when you get a chance to have a hands-on experience with racing wheels? Now, you know that certain gaming steering wheels are made for specific platforms and consoles. Xbox has its dedicated version – and so do the PS4 and PS5. However, this racing wheel base, in particular, stands out as ecosystem-ready, compatible with the Xbox One, PC, and Xbox Series X. So, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and PC platforms are all viable for the utilization of the Thrustmaster TX. The pedals are also adjustable. The accelerator pedal can be adjust up and down and the brake pedal has customizable pressure through tweaking the travel distance. Shorter travel equals higher pressure, longer travel means lesser pressure. I just left everything as it came out of the box and was very happy with it.There are some things you must do to make your Thrustmaster TX work and achieve its PC compatibility. ECOSYSTEM-READY: The TX Servo Base Racing Wheel is fully ecosystem-ready: players can select add-ons to obtain the ultimate racing wheel. While the industrial-class brushless servomotor alone delivers hard-to-beat precision, the TX racing wheel servo, as a whole, boasts impressive performance.
