Coming hot off their DB9 adapter allowing non-Thrustmaster pedals to be paired alongside a competent wheel from the company, they’ve now released an adapter that further opens up the hardware ecosystem, allowing owners of the T3PA and T3PA-PRO 3 pedals to use them as standalone products.
The T.RJ12 pedal adapter approaches things from the opposite end of the spectrum, paralleling the DB9 adapter, allowing users of non-Thrustmster wheels to use either of the two supported pedal sets in any racing game that support multiple device inputs. Like the previous product, this too will support 10-bit resolution and precision across all three input axes.
Accompanying the adapter is a new custom driver and advanced calibration software, the latter allowing users to adjust the dead zones at the beginning and end of each of the 3 pedals’ range of travel to their liking, and saving them in the T.RJ12 USB adapter’s internal memory.
The adapter is available now in select European countries for 16.99€ ($19.05 USD) courtesy of Thrustmaster’s online store and will be available in the US shortly.

Currently only on the PC, this won’t work on your Console.
But Interestingly, If you Combine Both Adapters,
You can use your Logitech Pedals as Stand alone on the PC with 10 bit resolution !
That “stand alone project” – sorry, product, got my attention. This is an intriguing notion, and I’m curious about the potential for game makers to offer this as an increasingly standard option on games. These are boutique pedal sets, as costly as some wheels, so this kind of forward thinking makes a lot of sense. For those who can afford this semi-luxury, this is a godsend.
