Podium Hub + CSW 2.5 + Custom Ring: FFB is not working well.

Sergio Tudela Romero

Hi folks,

I’m a happy user of CSW 2.5, and recently I’ve bought Podium Hub to be connected a custom ring (not Fanatec). The fact is I’ve lost the FFB when I was using CSW 2.5 + Fanatec Formula One Carbon + Without Podium Hub. I mean, the feeling is pretty different, when I’m turning into curve it feels very soft, losing how hard was turned without Podium Hub. I’ve tuning some settings from FanaLab, but nothing, it’s like the settings don’t cause any effect.

I’m playing iRacing, and FFB bar is almost in orange/red. I tested with the latest Fanatec drivers and even tested with the beta version. No luck.

Any idea?

By the way, the custom ring is recognized by my OS, and working well all the buttons. This is how looks:

What is the weight and size of the steering wheel vs the Fanatec steering wheel,

If it is bigger (wider) and/or heavier, the FFB will feel weaker

That was the issue. After change from Formula One Carbon to BMW GT (fanatec) , which is more bigger the last one, I feel the same that the custom one. Actually, I was playing a long time with BMW and back to the custom one, feel more strength with the custom one. You were right.
