I remember seeing a few posts over at GTPlanet with some recommended Fanatec wheel settings but now that I have my CSR setup I, for the life of me, cannot find those posts. Out of the box the wheel feels great but would like to fine-tune.

Hopefully we can use this thread for suggestions on Fanatec wheel settings.
 
Credit to Raudi for this but I use.

SENS 360/400. After workaround.
FF 70
SHO 40
DRI 003
ABS 85
SPR -2
DPR -3

All others at 0.
 
Believe me, wheel setup is quite personal..

I have mine set for very fast steering, I used to have it at 900, but found I just can't turn in/correct quick enough, and leave everything else off/default, I find the FFB seems to feel more balanced if you leave it as T10 intended..

SENS:210
FF:80
SHO:90
ABS: Matched to in-game settings (70 for me, I saturate brakes early)
DRI:OFF
LIN:0
DEA:0
SPR:0
DPR:0

You can pretty much get used to most things, my comments on some settings are

DRI - lots of people use this for large SENS values to make turning the wheel easier, this robs a lot of FFB in my opinion, I've tried it extensively, and find that on my PWTS, it removes a lot of the 'grip' FFB for me.. Mind you, I think with 900 degree steering, you'd need to have it on, or suffer major arm-ache..

I spent a while analysing where I was slow in hotlapping competitions, and the major areas that stuck out where the inability to steer fast enough (hence SENS=210), and not braking enough (Set in-game saturation to 70% and used telemetry to set the ABS value for the CSPs)..
 
I started on my CSR with Thomas's recommended settings and started turning down the Sens until it felt quick enough. I think it still needs to come down some but so far ->

SENS 720
FF 80
SHO 90
DRI 002
ABS 70
Everything Else = 0

I'm thinking I may make setups based on the class of car because there is no way I'm leaving the Sens that high if I'm driving a R1 car.

There also the CSr manual up at www.fanatec.de/html/index.php?id=31156&lang=en

I couldn't find the manual or drilling sheet last night to save my life.

I did drill holes in my Playseat Evo wheel stand base thingy (yes, that's the technical term :lol:) and I just drilled two holed, 3 1/2" inches from the front and 6 3/4" inches apart using a 1/4"inch drill bit. I also got some 6M (metric) bolts and 3 washers for each bolt to secure it along with the wheel's front clamp mechanism. It isn't goin' anywhere! :)

Also, I read through the CSR Settings thread on Thomas' blog and the SHO looks to be the setting for engine vibration, is that right? If so, that may be the issue as to why my G25 pedals don't work right. It seems like the vibration is hindering the throttle input somehow. But I may have to play with the ABS too since I'm not getting any brake input at all. If nothing else, my CSR E Pedals will arrive soon. Thanks again for the links.

If ABS is on J, then engine vibration won't come through the rim.

ABS has to be set to off for engine rumble.
It won't do both at the same time.
 
Great... a lot of suggestions and a link to the CSR manual :cheers:. Just finished hard mounting the wheel and Elite pedals to my WSP - now time to dial this thing in for some extended Forza sessions.

Thanks all
 
So, maybe a dumb question, but what is the button I press for LB to view shared cars and such that is annoying the *** out of me. Do I have ot program it in the options somewhere?

Been there, but I figured it out. Brake pedal. :)
 
My settings for my GT2 are the following:

Sen: 540
FF: 70
Sho: 60
Drift: 2
ABS: Varies 90-95
Lin: 0
Deadzone : 0
Spr: -2
Dpr: -3
 
Sen: 900
FF: 100
Sho: 30
Drift: Off
ABS: Off
Lin: 10 (Forza 900 degree steering has overboosted sensitivity around the center, this makes it more linear and more like a real street car, gives better precision)
Dea: 0
Spr: 3
Dpr: -3
