I just bought myself a thrustmaster t300rs GT edition for Christmas it's my first ever FFB wheel and I think it is broke. I knew I would be slower because I have been on a controller all my life and knew it would take time to get used to it and back up to speed. The problem is the wheel feels literally all over the place and I can't actually drive without it ripping out my hand and aggressively self steering when it really shouldn't. And my force feedback settings are fine because I have been looking up everyone else's settings and it's literally unplayable with their setting I have to turn the force feedback down to like 5% in most games like assetto corsa, GT sport and project cars 2 also I installed the new firmware, calibrated it, restarted it multiple times done everything I could think of. It feels really clunky and notchy. The thing is I have never used a force feedback wheel before so I don't know what it should be like and what it feels like if it is broken. I am pretty sure it is because it is literally nothing like what all the reviews and videos say. And I am not a bad driver, was a really good controller player and could hold my own against wheel users. Also the wheel sometimes makes pretty weird noises but nothing major to definitely say it is broke. Plus I heard the t300 is unreliable so it wouldn't surprise me. So what do you guys think can you give me any advice being a first time wheel user? Thanks
 
Sounds like it is broken. These wheels have a very high failure rate. It shouldn't be ripping out your hand. It is a great wheel if it works but for many people, myself included, it is a frustratingly badly made piece of kit.
 
So Im gessing your a ps4 player I had trouble with few games as well tho iv worked out few bugs. Have you been able play yet ?
 
Yeah thanks for the help but it progressively got worse so it was definitely broken just sent it back to get a replacement. Hopefully that's not broke haha.
 
Frustrating best of luck. If you like to add me for a race some time let me know and I'll drop my ps4 name
