I have been using this wheel for about a week and have played every day trying to improve, yet I am still so much slower than I was and I can't seem to not spin or crash at all, I just don't feel comfortable. Is there anything in the settings that can help with this?

I can't keep the car under control at all, even the slower cars like the tatuus f4
So any help would be appreciated, this is my first time using a wheel so I'm struggling to get my head around all the stuff

it's hard without force feedback

any specific part where you lose it? like udner braking, corner exit etc?

well, im not bad enough to seek help with mouse so its possible 😛
@eager galleon feel free to record some driving with inputs on the screen

I'll record some stuff

i see the wheel has some low angle of rotation, maybe you hit lock pretty fast?
weak bear
try to record with the input widget visible

He will need to play with steering angle as well as car settings
But I’m not expert lol 😂
weak bear
maybe gtr2 would be the better sim to get acclimated, since it was made for that wheel rotation 😄
subtle rock
He can add more rotation as well but it might help a lil in main setup
How degrees of rotation does the wheel have 🤔
*many
weak bear
270

See if you can upgrade for the wheel itself, after update you might have 900 degrees of rotation
It was a update a few days ago

i think that wheel is already an upgrade
subtle rock
I meant update the system lol Mybad

although used t258/150 would be more recommended

the only other pointer i have is to try to not mix brake and steering input until you have developed a bit of feeling on the brakes and you can judge how much steering angle you can give

@eager galleon how much did u pay for the wheel? 😛

i assume it was new? why didnt u grab some outlet/second hand ffb wheel?
subtle rock
You can try local facebook or anything like that for used wheels , I got mines for $40 usd
weak bear
i know it's not helpful to say to try to get a refund for something you just bought, but it's really just 10 quid more

where sound 👀
imo it would be better with some solo runs, i dont know if you lose the car or ai bumps you from behind
inputs seem exaggerated
does the car have abs?

I lose the car by myself, I can feel the rear end slide out
When I brake
I'm fairly sure the car does have abs
It's the corvette from the GTR2 class

@eager galleon send pic from first car setup screen (entire screen)

okay first off you apply way too much steering angle in relation to how much brake you're applying sometimes
cars without TC are super sensitive to that
and another here before a spin
you can absolutely do this, but you need to be smoother with the steering as well maybe reducing the brake pressure where you attempt a turn in to like 60%, but it depends a lot on the car
it's possibly easier to brake in a straight line and turn in after you're done braking, you can work on trail braking when you feel more comfy with your set
eager galleon
Yeah I realised what I had done wrong on that occasion
It's unlearning previous bad habits

With so little steering angle, I'd advise you to lower your car's steering lock as much as you can. For most tracks, 8-9 degrees is enough. Only a few tracks would need more than that.
eager galleon
Given the settings a bit of a change, seems a lot better
Thank you all for the advice

I generally struggle with understeer so I've increased it for Brands
eager galleon
Would changing the brake bias help?
