Manufacturer's Description
--------------------------
Thrustmaster T500 RS Force Wheel with Feedback (PS3 and PC)
The T500 RS is a real driving simulator, combining power and
precision. Thrustmaster has drawn from more than 20 years of
expertise in racing wheels, with a single goal: to develop a
wheel and pedal set that allows users to go as far as possible in
the GT5 experience. The designers have taken into account the
expectations of the most demanding gamers, while also adhering to
the technical choices of the developers of this new opus in the
benchmark car racing series.
The T500 RS’s dual official GT5 and PlayStation licenses are the
result of this unique positioning, as Kazunori Yamauchi, CEO of
Polyphony Digital and Senior Vice President of Sony Computer
Entertainment Inc., explains: “The goal that I set for the
Thrustmaster team was to design for me the most precise wheel
ever developed, without any latency – to accurately reproduce the
sensations of GT5, and let users truly feel the emotions
experienced by drivers on real racing circuits.” 30cm in diameter
with brushed metal radio stations.
Steering Wheel:
Ergonomics was at the heart of the wheel’s development, with an
eye on optimising gameplay, performance and driving sensations.
The sequential gearlevers ed on the base feature large 17cm
levers that are constantly accessible without letting go of the
wheel. The wheel itself offers a remarkable 1080° rotation. These
3 full turns are also adjustable, thanks to a motorised stop,
allowing the gamer choose the maximum degree of rotation
according to the type of racing circuit and the car being driven.
The T500 RS is a true racing simulator designed for the most
die-hard racing fans: its power is unmatched, with Force Feedback
effects relayed via a 65W industrial motor, providing 150mNm at
3000 RPM. The Force Feedback mechanism is vigorous, fast-acting
and extremely responsive. While the power is potent, the
integrated large dual-belt system ensures backlash-free and
smooth behavior.
Fans of even the most intense racing experience know that power
alone does not allow them to achieve the best performance. With
this in mind, the T500 RS provides total precision which never
decreases over time.
The wheel is super-precise with 16-bit resolution and 65536
values on its steering axis. Realistic Steering Wheel.
Key Features:
* Realistic steering wheel.
* 30cm in diameter with brushed metal radio stations.
* Authentic levers sequential gearbox polished metal.
Force Feedback:* HallEffect Accurate Technology system
(H.E.A.R.T).
* Resolution of 16 bits (65,536 values on the steering).
* Industrial motor force feedback (150 mNm torque, 3000 rpm, 65
W, 52mm).
* Powerful Force Feedback rapid responset.
* Plug motor drive.
* Mechanisms with large double straps.
* Adjustable angle of rotation up to 1080º (3 full turns).
3 adjustable pedals both in space and height. The Pedals:
The spacing and height of the 100% metal pedal set is also fully
adjustable and accommodate individual driving preferences by
offering 2 positions: “floor-ed” F1 style, or “suspended” GT
style. The brake pedal has been given extra attention, with
reinforced and adjustable resistance that lets users perfectly
tailor their braking with near surgical precision, and which
includes a removable mod.
A textured foot rest, also crafted entirely of metal, completes
the pedal set. Gamers will notice that having 3 pedals at their
disposal not only enhances the level of realism.
The pedal set of the T500 RS is 100% adjustable: you can adjust
the height, the spacing and the inclination of each pedal and
even replace the Thrustmaster pedals by a set from motorsport
manufacturers. The pedals set of the T500 RS is made of 100% of
metal (7Kg / 15.4Lbs) which provides optimal stability, the best
durability and the most realistic, simulation experience.
Key Features:* With 2 locations to choose from (ed: F1 or
suspended: GT).
* Metal pedals, high stability and resistance.
* Weight 7 Kg approximately.
* 3 adjustable pedals both in space and height.
* Brake pedal and adjustable enhanced resistance.
* Textured metal footrest grid.
H.E.A.R.T. HALLEFFECT ACCURATE TECHNOLOGY.
Is the the new technology developed by Thrustmaster to reproduce
movements made on a product in games. It relies on magnetic – and
not mechanical – 3D (HallEffect) sensors, placed in different
locations according to the product in question. The precision
made possible by the use of this technology is significantly
higher than that provided by standard technologies.
Another advantage of this system: by eliminating all friction, it
guarantees zero mechanical wear, for permanent precision that
won’t decrease over time.
The level of precision is also enhanced by the absence of any
dead zones: even the slightest movement made by the player
results in a reaction. Actions in games are therefore more
linear, smoother and without any untimely jolts. A patent
application has been filed for this technology.
