Questions About the Logitech G Pro Wheel & Pedals
I appreciate all the comments and discussions about my review of the Logitech G Pro Wheel and Pedals. I want to take the time to clarify my perspective and address some of the most common points that have come up.
1. Others are competing for top times with this wheel, so it must be a ‘you’ problem.”
🔹 My response: The Logitech G Pro Wheel can perform at a high level, and I found the base to be good with TrueForce being great in terms of detail and immersion. However, my delta directly relates to the issue I explained. While the wheel itself is capable, I wasn’t happy with the consistency and overall feeling from 100% to 50% braking, as well as how the pedals feel in the first 10% of input.
🔹 Everyone has their own preferences, and I always aim to give my perspective based on my experience. If you love the wheel and it works for you, that’s great! But my goal is to provide insights that help others make an informed decision.
2. “Logitech’s recommended settings are best, and you should just use those.”
🔹 My response: Logitech’s recommended settings are exactly that—recommendations, not an absolute best setup for everyone. Force feedback settings are highly personal and should be adjusted based on your driving style, car type, and personal preference.
🔹 That said, FFB Sensitivity at 1 is a big no. Setting it this low is like buying a €1500 wheel and only using 10% of its potential. It severely dulls the finer details you need for proper control, making the experience feel lifeless and disconnected. Instead, I recommend adjusting sensitivity to a level that maintains both realism and responsiveness, rather than just accepting the default setting.
3. “If others can use the wheel successfully, why are you complaining?”
🔹 My response: Every driver has their own preferences. Some may find the G Pro Wheel perfectly fine, while others (including me) might feel it lacks certain feedback elements compared to other direct drive wheels. My goal isn’t to say “this wheel is bad,” but rather to highlight my experience so that others can make an informed decision based on their own needs.
🔹 If you already own the wheel and love it, great! If you’re considering buying one, I hope my review is here to help you weigh the pros and cons.
4. My Performance with the Logitech G Pro Wheel
🔹 My response: I placed +0.386 within the top 30 in the world at the end of my stream. This shows that the wheel is certainly capable of fast lap times, but my concerns were never about outright speed, it’s about consistency and feel over longer sessions.
5. How I Adjusted the Pedals for Better Control
🔹 My response: I adjusted the sensitivity of the pedals to 85, which helped me deal with the non-linear pedal response. This adjustment improved the feel, but it didn’t fully resolve the issues I had with the brake and throttle inputs.
6. Pedals: Travel, Stiffness, and Feel
🔹 My response: The Logitech G Pro Pedals don’t have built-in ways to adjust travel and stiffness. While the brakes have elastomers that serve as a partial solution, I found that:
🔹 The brake pedal is too soft in the first 10%, regardless of which elastomer combination or software settings I used.
🔹 The throttle pedal has a similar issue—it’s very easy to move in the first 10%.
🔹 This is likely due to the softer springs used in the pedals. I tried all the elastomer combinations and all the included springs, but the issue persisted—especially on the brake pedal.
🔹 You can add a deadzone to counteract this issue, but for me, that’s a huge no-go. A high-end pedal set should allow for precise control without having to artificially mask a hardware limitation.
🔹 While some drivers may not mind this, I found it difficult to get the level of consistency I expect from high-end pedals.
I appreciate the discussion and different viewpoints! If you have more questions, drop them in the comments, and I’ll be happy to discuss further.
) - why do we have double clutch on the wheel but then also have a clutch pedal? I assume that's 100% redundant/unnecessary. Am I crazy to think that? I imagine a car would only ever have 1 of the 2 setups.
