Thrustmaster T300 Ferrari Alcantara Edition: a very pleasant steering wheel (feel and responsiven...
Hello,
I find this steering wheel particularly pleasant to use.
And that applies both to the feel (Alcantara is a particularly tactile material) and to the way it reacts in games.
I hadn't made up my mind about either the brand (Thrustmaster or Logitech) or the model.
But thanks to Laurent's advice, I was able to decide on this model and I'm very happy with it.
I'd had a Logitech steering wheel a long time ago, but in my memory, if it worked properly in my eyes, this Thrustmaster easily surpasses it.
So a very big thank you to Laurent for taking the time to give me in-depth explanations (including the possibility of buying driving gloves), and for guiding me in my choice, which I'm particularly happy with.

Best value for money
It's always hard to get into SimRacing and choose the right steering wheel, it's a hell of a budget to get a proper steering wheel, and for a mid-range steering wheel it really does the job, for me it's the best choice if you want a steering wheel, the three pedals, a proper and not jerky force feedback (like on the Logitechs :/) while not spending thousands of euros in Fanatec and co gear

Very, very good steering wheel
After 2 months of testing, I'm here to give my opinion.
Coming from a DFGT logitech, the difference is obvious: the feeling is completely different.
In DiRT Rally, my times have improved to the point of sometimes finishing first in the penultimate championship ... unthinkable with another wheel.
You feel everything: the return of force, in tight corners or hairpins, you let go of the wheel and it comes back to the centre.
In the bumps of Finland or Denmark, you take off and the feeling during the flight and on landing is really impressive.
In Pcars 2 it's downright monstrous, you master the car and the countersteering, a real pleasure.
In Assetto Corsa, you can feel when the car is going to stall, and as a result the times are greatly improved. Not to mention the pleasure of playing with a slight stall of the rear axle on the Ferraris... you'd think you were there.
Criticisms :
---------------
The mounting system lets the steering wheel move a bit on a too smooth desk, the anti-slip pads do their job badly.
The same pedal: you have to block it otherwise it moves.
Self-calibration of the steering wheel is too violent when it reaches its limit.
Advantages :
-----------
Extremely faithful response to the feel of the road surface, bumps, drift and jolts of the car, centrifugal force, kerbs etc...
Alcantara steering wheel with magical feel
Quality T3PA pedals, really sufficient with a *very* strong brake pedal.
Wide metal paddles (for gears).
Alcantara wear (the question is often asked): I play without gloves and sweat a bit sometimes ... :) No wear in two months.
From time to time I clean with a wet paper towel, and then I dry with a dry one, as indicated in the alcantara maintenance recommendations. It is like new.
Very quiet steering wheel for the force it delivers.
Summary: Very good steering wheel, which according to G27 or G29 owners has a better feel.

Zero Reliability
I was able to play for an hour the night I received the product (yesterday). I loved it, I went to bed dreaming of the amazing races I was going to be able to do.
And the next morning, I boot up the computer, but nothing... The steering wheel is not detected, does not turn on, does not calibrate. After extensive research on the net, I have to resign myself to sending it back.
I took more time to install the device than to fly it. What a frustration. I still can't believe it.
