Thrustmaster TX help

I’m really struggling with the transition from the controller to the wheel.

For instance on the Ferrari 458 on long beach cycled production race. I cannot make the giant sweeper at the beginning of the lap with a complete loss of control.

My settings: 900 degrees, TCS on, cockpit view. I don’t think I’m using any other assists or the wheels sensitivity feature.

I have the same settings as you - I’m guessing you’re sliding out as it goes round to the right? Less gas - feathering the throttle should get you round. Make sure your deadzones are all 0-100 in the advanced controller settings. Also bear in mind cycled production means all the cars are stock, which often leaves them harder to control than tuned cars.

YMMV, WAC, $0.02, etc.

Thanks TeamRadicus. I appreciate the advice. That is the corner that I was talking about and the 458 is especially hard for me to handle in it’s stock form.

I’ll open my deadzones right up. I may also try using the telemetry to see what’s happening. I suspect that I’m losing grip in the rear and then struggling to regain control resulting in a wicked tankslapper and complete wipeout.

I’d turn down the dor to 540 that’s what I’m running using an A class Ferrari cs360 no assits cockpit view
I also agree about the stock cars are hard to drive

I figured it out! I had to fight the force feedback to keep my steering wheel perfectly smooth and lift on the throttle a little. The steering wheel moving was enough to upset the car.

I’ll try the DOR at 540 too but I find that I do better in general at 900 degrees.

Thanks guys.

I think I’m running my FFB at about 50% - at 100% the wheel was being torn out of my hands!

Glad you got it sorted,
Toni
