Alright so I have a G27 and because PD and Logitech both have a stick up there bums there it isn't fully supported. Now when I try to take sharp turns All I get is understeer(even after having everything set for as loose as a 2$ hooker). I get red tires when I turn my wheel to much and IDK why. Does anyone have any tips for taking turns sharp with the G25/27 wheels?
 
I've got a G25 and I find that too...however I used to brake late thus causing it to happen. Get the right braking point n kiss the apex then there are no issues...tweaks in the car sometimes help too but I'd be willing to listen to others views
 
Only put the amount of lock you need to get around the corner. The less amount of steering lock applied, the more speed you will carry. If you are understeering, dab on the brake to shift the weight to the front wheels, you should grip then. You should never apply more steering lock if you are understeering heavily to begin with, turning more will slow you down as well as making it worse.
Hope this helps!
 
I asked this question in the Petition Thread but I dont think Ill get an answer so maybe I can get one here. What would 'Full Support" give my g25 that I cant already do?

You're braking too late, trying to turn too much while braking, trying to take too much speed or a combination of all. Trail braking works, as does dabbing/letting off the brake to allow you to roll around, careful use of throttle can help here too.

It is all in the brake/throttle and gear choices, you should never have to turn the wheel very much if you get the above right.


The only thing that is not supported with the G27/G25 is being able to reassign the buttons on the wheel to other actions.

Okay thats what I suspected. In that case theres nothing really to be gained since mapping the G25 is possible as its already been done.
 
Im new with the forum and the g27, so simply i would like to know if i could adjust the force feedback on g27 somehow.

Options -> Steering Controllers -> Steering Settings -> Feedback Strength is what you're looking for I think. Also might want to turn steering type to sim, dunno what it does but I did it initially and I've seen it recommended before.
 
when i first started using my dfgt, i felt the same way geting alot of understeer. Its all in the braking taking it too deep will make you understeer and turing the wheel too much will do the same also thus cusing you to not roll the coner as smoth. I got to the point where i was going to pack up the dfgt but just takes practice bro and back up your coners. remember sometimes slow is fast and smooth is conistaint
