Review on Thrustmaster T300 Servo Base: Ultimate Gaming Experience for PS4, PC, and PS5 by En Xiao ᠌

Although the T300 is relatively good, it is impossible not to pay attention to the following unpleasant moments: 1) The main disadvantage that I can't help but notice is the decrease in ForceFeedback's strength. Maybe I'm so "lucky" and I came across such a mowing base, but during long intensive taxiing, at least in F1 2022, steering feedback noticeably weakens by about 50-60% after already 1.5 minutes after the start of the race. There is a feeling that the steering wheel is literally "running out of steam", because if you stop driving intensively and, after pausing the game, give the device a minute to "restore breathing", then the feedback force returns to the desired level. This greatly reduces the positive feeling of the game. As soon as FF goes down, it is necessary to literally change the approach to driving a virtual car, which requires some short-term adaptation. In general, this is the most important and very significant drawback, for which I rightly do not put the 5th star. The disadvantages below are no longer as significant as this one. ; 2) As soon as I took a completely new steering wheel out of the box, I immediately realized with my nose that this would not disappear in a few days. The body of the steering wheel is made of plastic, and very odorous. During the game for 2 months, I opened the window to breathe less of this semi-toxic, nasty smell of Chinese plastic. Fortunately, it still gradually weathered during operation. ; 3) When calibrating the steering wheel for a fraction of a second, about 400 ° relative to the center, scrolls sticky. This does not really affect the operation of the steering wheel, but it is a little alarming. 4) The pedal block, in comparison with competitors, is rather meager in quality. It is advisable to purchase a more sophisticated version from the steering wheel manufacturer or something from a custom one. I already have resistance springs in the pedals that have lost about 5-10% in stiffness.
