Logitech G920

The Logitech G920 is a popular racing wheel and pedal set designed for use with gaming consoles and PC. Here's some information about the Logitech G920:

Compatibility

The Logitech G920 is primarily designed for use with Xbox consoles, including the Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S. However, it can also be used with a PC running compatible racing games.

Racing Wheel

Like the G29, the G920 features a high-quality racing wheel with force feedback. The force feedback system provides realistic and responsive feedback to the driver, simulating the feel of the road and vehicle dynamics.

Pedal Set

The G920 comes with a separate pedal set, including an accelerator, brake, and clutch pedal. The pedals are designed to be realistic and provide a similar feel to what you'd experience in a real car.

Materials and Build Quality

The racing wheel is made of high-quality materials, and the wheel itself is wrapped in hand-stitched leather, giving it a premium look and feel.

Buttons and Controls

The G920 wheel features various buttons and controls, including D-pad buttons, a rotary dial, and paddle shifters, allowing you to navigate menus and control in-game functions without needing to reach for a keyboard or controller.

Compatibility with Games

The Logitech G920 is compatible with a wide range of racing simulation games on both Xbox consoles and PC. Many popular racing titles, such as "Forza Motorsport" and "Assetto Corsa," support this racing wheel.

Mounting and Stability

The G920 is designed to be mounted securely to a racing wheel stand or cockpit, ensuring stability during gameplay. It typically includes mounting hardware for this purpose.

Software and Customization

Logitech provides the software Logitech G HUB that allows you to customize the racing wheel's settings, including adjusting the force feedback strength, button mapping, and sensitivity.

Haptic Feedback

Some versions of the G920 may feature haptic feedback on the brake pedal, simulating the feel of ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) and enhancing the driving experience.

Price

Similar to the G29, the Logitech G920 is often considered a mid-range racing wheel option, offering a good balance between price and performance compared to higher-end racing wheel setups.

Premise: Logitech has placed two similar products on the market as successors to the G27.

Compatibility:

G29   PS4, PS3  PC

G920  Xbox One  PC

G29 and G920 that differ for small details such as the shift lights, the color and position of some LEDs, the color of the steering wheel strip. From a substantial point of view there is no improvement or worsening in the operation. They are both excellent steering wheels that fall within a medium/high price range, with very accurate finishing, little plastic, considerable weight, ease of use and complete software. 

Software download: easily downloadable from the site (https://support.logi.com/hc/it/articles/360024694994--Download-G920-Driving-Force-Racing-Wheel).

Software: Last update 2020-04-02 Latest version 2020.2.35921

The steering wheel is equipped with an integrated fixing system for mounting on a table.

Very well cared for the steering wheel covered in leather, solid.

The steering wheel uses two motors with helical gears that provide quite realistic and not exaggerated feedback. Inside there is a safety circuit against overheating that acts as protection against high temperatures. In rare cases, the feedback functionality may be interrupted during use even if the controls continue to work. In this case, the solution is to let the steering wheel cool down and turn it off by disconnecting it. 

The steering wheel levers are in stainless steel, very accurate and the progression is uniform. I didn't notice any sharpness in driving, acceleration and abrupt steering. It's all very smooth.

The pedal unit has 3 carefully constructed stainless steel pedals. They don't have the plastic effect of many other cheaper steering wheels.

Clutch pedal, non-linear brake pedal, throttle pedal. There is also a patented carpet grip system at the bottom that works really well. Of course, if you exaggerate the pressure, the pedal will move, but under normal conditions it is stationary. There are also 6 fixing points for M6X1 bolts.

Conclusion.

Both G29 and G920 are worth the price because they simulate in a more realistic way the driving of a real car and, even if there are no major differences between the two models, my preference goes to G29.

Thrustmaster T150 PRO Force Feedback

The Thrustmaster T150 PRO Force Feedback is an entry-level racing wheel known for offering a good driving experience at an affordable price.

Force Feedback Servomotor. 

The T150 PRO features a force feedback servomotor, providing a realistic simulation of driving force and road conditions. While it's entry-level, it still offers a reasonably satisfying feedback.

1080-Degree Rotation. 

The wheel provides a maximum rotation of 1080 degrees, allowing for precise and detailed driving. This is particularly useful for racing games that require precise input.

Progressive Pedals. 

The T150 PRO includes a set of progressive pedals with an accelerator pedal, brake pedal, and clutch pedal. The pedal progression simulates the response of a real car, enhancing the driving experience.

Construction Materials. 

The wheel and pedals are constructed with decent-quality materials, ensuring good durability over time.

Multi-Platform Compatibility. 

The T150 PRO is compatible with a variety of platforms, including PlayStation systems and PC. You can use it with the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC.

Buttons and Dial. 

The wheel features programmable buttons and a rotary dial that make navigating in-game menus and controlling the game easier.

Mounting Support. 

You can mount the wheel on dedicated gaming stands or a custom racing cockpit for a stable driving experience.

Sound Feedback. 

In addition to force feedback, the T150 PRO offers sound feedback that allows you to hear the noise of the road and driving conditions, enhancing immersion.

Affordable Price. 

The Thrustmaster T150 PRO is known for being one of the most affordable force feedback racing wheels on the market, making it an ideal choice for beginners and driving enthusiasts looking for a budget-friendly solution.

Price: 230€ mid-range for steering wheels with feedback

Compatibility: Xbox One E PC. PS3 PS4

Content: Steering wheel and pedals.

The Firmware version appears at the top right of the Control Panel. Firmware: 11 is the latest version.

This model costs something more than the T150 Force feedback model, but basically has the same characteristics in the steering wheel. The pedalboard is different in that it is much better and has 3 pedals.

Premise:

On PC, the USB sliding switch on the T150 racing wheel’s base must always be set to the PS3 position!

Attaching the pedal set to a cockpit :

• Attach the pedal set using the small threaded holes located beneath it.
• Drive two M6 screws (not included) through the cockpit shelf, then feed them into the two small threaded holes located beneath the pedal set.
• Important : The length of the M6 screws should not exceed the thickness of the shelf +10 mm; longer screws could cause damage to internal components located in the pedal set.

The construction of the whole set is rather plastic, both the steering wheel and the pedalboard, despite the not exactly cheap price, and the interior of the steering wheel is hollow so you feel you are handling not a real steering wheel, but the steering wheel of a game. The driving is not always very fluid, but you feel some roughness, partly compensated by feedback.

Unlike the pedalboard, there aren't many holes to attach to a desk or cockpit. There is a plastic clamp with only one hole, but it does the job.

The feedback system works very well, giving a sense of solidity that compensates for the feeling of driving with a light steering wheel. This is a feature of all Thrustmaster feedback steering wheels.

The steering wheel is equipped with levers and buttons in abundance to allow any manoeuvre in racing.

Interesting utility: there is a connector, at the base of the steering wheel, to insert a different gearbox.

Another important detail: the inclination of the pedals is adjustable.

My impression is that the most interesting part is the pedalboard with 3 pedals all with a more realistic tension than the two similar versions Thrustmaster T150 Ferrari Wheel Force Feedback and Thrustmaster T150 Force Feedback.

Conclusion

If you're thinking of spending a few hours on gaming, this T150 is recommended, but if you decide to spend more time on gaming, it's best to head for the Logitech G29 or Thrustmaster T300RS.
