Force Feedback System

The TX Racing Wheel utilizes a brushless industrial motor and a new optimized frictionless dual-belt mechanism to deliver ultra-smooth, super-responsive, and realistic Force Feedback effects without latency. This system provides detailed road feel, tire grip loss, braking, bumps, and impacts.

Úrræðaleit

No Force Feedback or Wheel Not Responding

• Ensure the power supply is securely connected to both the wheel base and the power outlet.
• Verify the USB cable is firmly connected to your Xbox or PC.
• On PC, ensure the latest drivers are installed and the wheel is recognized in the Thrustmaster Control Panel.
• For Xbox, ensure the controller pairing LED on the wheel base is visible to the Kinect camera (if applicable) for proper detection.

Wheel Calibration Issues

• When powering on, the wheel performs a self-calibration sequence (rotates fully left and right). Ensure there are no obstructions.
• If calibration fails, disconnect the power and USB, wait a few seconds, and reconnect.

Loose Power Connection

Some users have reported issues with the power cable connection to the wheel base becoming loose, leading to intermittent power loss. Ensure the power cable is fully inserted and consider securing it to prevent accidental disconnections during intense gameplay.
