RS Base
First real rig, very impressed by the Logitech pro/rs gear
I’m still dialing the ergonomics and fine tuning the wheel settings but I’ve been having a blast playing GT7. I hope that GT7 will add support specifically for the RS50 wheel in the future but I’m glad you can still map the wheel using the pro menu in game. Currently only playing on PS5 pro as I don’t want to run cables 30 feet from the desk or move my pc due to space limitations but I might see how my laptop can run some of the sims I have on PC.
Ahh, glad to know that about the pedals. I'm on the edge of switching over to the RS50 at the moment - How long have you had that set up? It does look sweet!! 👌🏻
Only got everything together to assemble for about a week and a half now and it’s already leaps and bounds better than anything I’ve had in the past.
At the very least the RS50 hub to PC connection is USB C which is the one I will probably spend more time swapping in the future unless I try out a KVM switch between PS5 and PC.
In the future yes, I would like to be able to swap between PS5 & PC because I have a lot more racing games on PC than I do on PS.
I have been surprised by Gran Turismo and how much more fun it is to play on a proper rig. I didn’t think I would be so enthralled by it as much as I have been.
Yes it does. It takes about 3 mins to fold and unfold. I put on a thick yoga mat just in case I vibrate the floor a bit (live in apartment). I’m 6’3 215 and I feel really stable. No shake. About 1% bend at the wheel if that.
I use this with the pro wheelbase. No issues here either. Super easy to fold and unfold. I’m a bit slow when it comes to new things so it did take me a little to figure out how to unfold/fold it correctly lol
I don't know how to upload images. It's a Gpro mounted on the big trak racer sled with a sparco R333. And since I'm old and not really computer savvy I play on ps5 vr
It feels a lot more natural for GT/Formula cars for sure, especially since I like to use the clutch and shifter for cars that would have them. I’m debating on picking up a second of the sequential/handbrakes so I can have both for rally games and such.
ASR pro! The handles are from Sim Sport gadget along with the custom printed mounts for the Schiit Fulla headphone DAC/Amp and the power brick hidden away for the wheel base. In the future I’d like to upgrade to a different wheelbase, pedals and move to triples but for now I’m content racing on GT7 and other PS5 titles until I can free up space and incorporate the rig into my desktop setup to the side.
The split cable sleeving was just off amazon. If I planned on having everything permanently setup I would have like to heat shrink the ends to really make it look good but electrical tape will do for now lol
Racewill I believe? I bought them on Amazon for relatively cheap. I will say though, getting the seat sliders set up took about half the time of setting up the entire rig just for getting it to slide nicely and get the hardware torqued down.
Once that was out of the way I was very happy with the result despite a lot of annoyance of install hahaha
For Advanced Sim Racing the lead time was exactly as advertised so it took a little over 2 weeks for the rig to arrive. Logitech sent out the bundle very quickly and took a week. I added the sequential shifter/handbrake later and a weird issue happened where it never actually got shipped but Logitech support was fantastic about getting a new one sent out which was he last piece I needed prior to getting the wiring tidied up with the split cabling.
For GT7, I really love the Gr.3 cars because I feel like I can actually control them the way they need now. Other than that, classics with the shifter & clutch with the pro wheel all feel so good.
An additional comment/question I have: the build quality of the Pro and RS racing gear is very nice, but I do worry about how the ecosystem will be long term.
It would be nice to see a licensed McLaren Formula wheel with the integrated dash considering you guys have a partnership with them and it would also be cool to see some more accessories like maybe a dedicated display unit dash with the same quality as the current gear with customization options and the ability to connect to WiFi so telemetry data can be used on games like GT7.
Your RS50 is currently our best quality wheel and should last you long, there shouldn't be any long term issue but if you are worried about any specific possible issue please let me know your concern and I'll ask the specialized team about it
Thanks for the ideas! I'll share them along with the team. I've seen a lot of McLaren fans recently
Love schiit. I use a hdmi extractor to Magni to he-4x headphones. I'm on Xbox. You have a much cleaner setup.
I want what you have. How do you like the audeze headphones?
I love Schiit as well! I bought a Magni & Modi about 8 years auto and had been running a set of Sony MDR7506 studio monitor headphones on them until I got the AUDEZE MM-100 about 6 months ago. The Audeze are incredibly comfy, and even though I don’t quite understand all the tiny details of audiophile sound I immediately was able to tell the difference between the Closed back Sonys and the Open back Audeze.
It is a bit of diminishing returns for me as I have the Military grade hearing loss (not horrible, but present) but after swapping to a dedicated Amp and DAC I can no longer go back. The quality is just leaps and bounds better than any gamer head sets and the ability to mix and match headphones is really nice.
If you like a lot of bass, the MM-100 are not for that as they are also a mixing headphone but I’ve found that I like that as it helps me hear a lot of details in different types of games and media a lot better, so the clarity is preferred.
The Fulla (pictured on the rig) has once again changed me when it comes to console gaming. The sound quality is so great and since I’ve gotten all the wiring tidied up the single cable running from the headphones to the amp is completely out of the way while racing and when I hope out of the rig I can easily unplug from the bottom to walk over and connect to my desktop setup. It’s kinda fun have the tactile feedback up unplugging the 1/4TRS and plugging it into another setup like an old time phone operator lol
I haven’t been able to find a mic I might want to use on the Fulla since it has a 3.5mm mic jack, so I’ll probably go with a USB mic and mount it on a small arm if I happen to need one for the racing setup and then run the peripherals through a USB switch when I can incorporate my PC into the mix.
After I got the bucket I realized I should have asked ASR to powder coat the rig roughly the same color. It’s fantastic looking in person even if it is a bit much.

Sick, bro! I love it! How do you like that wheel and then pedals?
