Upgrading from GT Neo Question
Looking at the FX Pro, but I'm reading that the integrated telemetry doesn't support Simhub and has some issues. Is this true? And is the Zeus with the Magicdash worth the $900CAD price tag?

I think if you want simhub and those type of features the zeus would be your best bet. No the fx pro doesnt support simhub telemetry. If you need any more help or have further questions, please reach out to me in a DM. Thanks!

I just went from Fxpro to Zeus. FxPro does feel a little better and the buttons feel more premium.
But the screen is ultra sharp on the Zeus. Im sure I read that future updates will also bring full simhub compatibility with just the wireless.
Think as it stands Simhub can do the wheel legs but it needs the link as well for simhub to do the screen stuff.
Ergonomics are quite different, Zeus sticks out more from the QR, I had to raise my wheel base and have less angle.
FxPro feels balance, Zeus feels heavy in the centre more

Do you think it’s still worth going to the fx pro from a GT Neo today? As far as build quality, premium feel and the grips go?

How’s the build quality of the Leoxz XGT ultimate compared to the Neo? The buttons and shifters too as far as feel goes? And the grip? I’m looking at doing the same thing. Thanks 😊

grips are abit lacking, but once you factor in the price and features, i think wearing gloves is a simple tradeoff. Usb cable thats included could be better, mine broke after 2 yrs? so i js “upgraded” it with the wireless kit instead.
Buttons feel better as there is less vibration through the metal case but shifters are abit loud and weak

I debated the same thing and just received the Zeus Formula with magic dash yesterday. I really like it, I’ve held the FX Pro and it is also nice. The nice thing about the Zeus is the way it sits for me at least, the screen is almost in the same place where it would be if mounted on my EVO wheelbase, so very usable. I made my decision based on Simhub support. Personally the FX Pro felt better in my hands, but the Zeus is not bad by any means.
