Logitech G RS50 System 3-Piece Sim Racing Steering Wheel Setup - RS50 Wheel base with 8 Nm Direct

Admittedly when I was younger, I was really into racing online. Be it full sim, or just casual racing with friends, it was enjoyable. However, life gets in the way sometimes, and I found myself without the time I once had, so racing went on the back burner. I do dabble in some racing here and there, such as iRacing, Forza, Gran Turismo, and BeamNG. I used mostly controllers for those games. Then I saw Assessto Corsa Rally drop on Steam as early access, and being a huge WRC fan, I decided to download it. I tried it with the controller and had fun, but it was lacking. I went digging through my old gear and found a Logitech G27 setup that hadn't seen the light of day in many, many years. I hooked it up and it made a huge difference, but felt dated, clunky, and lacking. So I started poking around on Reddit to see what the simracing group was recommending. Moza was often recommended, but I saw a few callouts about the RS50 from Logitech. It happened to be at Black Friday so there was a discount running on the RS50. After thinking it over, I pulled the trigger on the RS50 wheel, RS pedals, and RS shifter/e-brake. I also ordered the clutch pedal module directly from Logitech since it wasn't listed on Amazon. A couple days later everything showed up. The first thing I noticed was how heavy the boxes were. Gone are the days of these devices truly feeling like toys. I opened up each box and was pleased with what I saw. Heavy duty, feels quality, good heft, easy instructions printed right on the inside of the box, and easy assembly. I already had Logitech's G-Hub installed on my computer because of a Logitech mouse, but that would prove problematic a bit later on. I updated G-Hub, connected everything together and mounted it on my desk. Everything was detected without a problem. I did some digging online to find good starting settings for ACR, did some testing of the pedals to dial in force/sensitivity, and into the game I went. After a couple of test runs I tweaked the settings in G-Hub and in the game itself a bit more, and got a time in the top 250 in the world on the first stage I played fully through. That was a massive improvement over the G27 and the feeling is outstanding. Keep in mind that ACR is early access and the FFB is not optimized yet, but I broke a sweat by the end of that stage. Gone is that clunky/popping/vibrating FFB that I had experienced over the years, and it was replaced by this quiet, linear, and much more realistic feel. Does it feel spot on like a real car? No, but it is night and day difference better than anything I experienced back in the day. The wheel feels quality. I do wear light gloves when racing. The buttons are all fully functional. I like the dials for things like differential, ABS, or brake bias settings while racing. There are plenty of buttons to control a majority of what you'd need on anything but the most complex simulated cars. The matching RS pedals feel great, though for now I had to elevate the front of the pedal platform using some rubber slotted vehicle jack pads (ASIN: B08MT7V3ND) for added comfort when using in a desk environment. The shifter/e-brake (I'm using as the e-brake) feels excellent. Good linear feel, really good quality, and everything just works. The downside was G-Hub. In my case everything was working great, but then while racing, usually during a hairpin corner when using the e-brake and downshifting, I'd lose all controls. The throttle may stick on, even though I'm off the pedals. I rebooted and it would work, and then happen again in ACR. In the end I had to fully remove G-Hub, remove files in my profile, program files, and program data. Basically remove all signs of G-Hub. I then rebooted, reinstalled, and thus far (fingers crossed) it has worked well with no issues. I also saved my profile to the wheel itself, so I'm hoping that helps as well. To close this out, these devices are not cheap. However, if you enjoy driving and racing, it's far cheaper than paying for the real thing. I found that for a modest investment, I have had an absolute blast. It changed the experience so much for me that now I'm looking at buying an actual cockpit, perhaps from Next Level Racing. Logitech has delivered a pretty dang good product here, and I honestly couldn't be happier. Read more

This is almost as good as the G Pro, and way better than the G29. Direct drive is a dream and the amount of sensation in the wheel is fantastic. You get plenty of torque but not so much that you will break a wrist. Plug and play on PS5 is a breeze. If you want a fancy wheel, this is a great pick and it's everything you would expect from Logitech. Read more

Great quality. Easy to setup. This was the first system I bought for sim racing, and gives you high quality feedback for a reasonable price. I use the PlayStation 5 and PC version. Read more

I didn't think it would make that much difference but Logitech's new wheel is outstanding. Super easy to setup and use, great seamless integration for my PS5 slim. Easy to use and makes me drive much much better. I think you'll like this. Read more

So far lives up to the hype Easy setup well packaged Not sure the attachment system is what I would call the easiest to use. But the power and build quality is first rate Read more

I was just using the wheel playing Gran Turismo 7, it just shut down and it didn’t turn back on. Just used it 2 times. Read more

I just started playing GT7 and the RS50 is perfect. The trueforce feedback shakes the entire rim making an entire cheap Ares Wing rig feel like a roll cage inside a real car. When you ride over the left or right chicanes you actually feel it on the left or right side of the rig, underneath your left or right butt cheek. Its awesome. Your gf will use it while you're gone to get into pleasurable crashes. Read more
