fanatec has a great array of products they look really well built and really clean design and i love that aspect although the price is quite high (but it feels fair since you're paying for an high end product) but i'm okay with that, i'm gonna buy a bunch of stuff on my birthday from fanatec to finally complete my rig build, so excited!
OMG You are a life saver. I found this wheel go up for sale on one of my local selling and buying apps for 150, I was able to talk down the price to 100. I've never owned a f1 wheel before so I am so excited! Thank you so much for the review video
@@Aaron458f Just out of the box bro. It's a great wheel for a decent price from the clubsport series (higher tier) so it is very high quality with lots buttons, great shifters and a very nice feel when driving. I would recommend it any day :)
@@masons_wrld no it wont because this is the PS4/PC edition, you will need the X-Box/PC edition ;) I think the powerlight is different also (this is Blue for PS4/ Red for PC the other is Green for Xbox /Red for PC)
I swapped the paddles either side and got the magnetic solution from AMStudio ! Near enough to perfect now ;) I didnt like having the paddles like you have them up high so swapping sides leaves them at the same place just closer ;)
Thank you for the review! Is spot on! I will be ordering an Accuforce V2 and one of these wheels to use with the USB conversion. Is think is a great wheel specially when you consider the fact that wheels for DD bases are very expensive!
Sold my Logitech G29 last week and immediately purchased the Csl elite base, wheel and pedal bundle along with the Formula Carbon wheel. Neadless to say it's a huge upgrade and i'm loving every minute of it.
The paddle shifters were the reason I kept my McLaren Rim instead of the Formula Carbon. The paddle shifters on the McLaren Rim are amazing. Also, I prefer the 30cm rim size.
Yeah, but we can't buy it right now, if ever again. No word whether it's even coming back. That's the wheel I really want, but I'm running out of patience.
Nice review! One thing I’ve always been curious about some of the higher end (non-stock) rims: is there any advantage other than having more buttons? Does the different geometry or stronger materials enhance the feel of the FFB or more precise car control? It’s a lot to spend just for more buttons, especially when I could get a button box for half the cost that has twice as many buttons...
Hello I really like your channel very entertaining and I learn a lot, I see that you have a fanatec I want to ask you something I want to buy it but since the ps5 comes in 3 or 4 months my question is. Do you think that new fanatec systems are coming for ps5 or they will follow those that currently sell and they will not change but they will be compatible with ps5. Will new fanatec systems come for ps5? That is the specific question.
First day of use and first problem with this wheel. the display is getting black during movement, seems like an electric issue. When i press the whole wheel up and against the base it runs but when i turn the wheel the display stucks or gettin black again. What a mess... not worth the money!
Good video. Now I have a question and I'll try it in English, sorry for bad grammar: I've bought the CSL Elite with F1 esports wheel. Is there a possibility to use the left stick (5-way) in the game? I only can press the left stick, but no way to assign up, down, left, right to any functions in assetto corsa competizione.
how is the FFB? Im looking for solid ffb with really smooth feeling, im used to the DFGt with the colunky grinding type of feel. I just want it to feel smooth, good ffb and solid weight when around corners
Have a whole kit on the fanatec website with gear shifter/pedals/E-brake/ load cell brake, and the F1 ps4 bundle in my cart... just waiting on Sony to confirm if it will be usable on PS5. Would be very frustrating if I spent close to $1500 (including shipping and tax & conversion to USD) only to have sony not support it ( I.e specific hardware limitations meaning you need to buy PS5 branded products to work with it. Hope not tho but waiting until that announcement comes through
Can u use this f1csl elite on ps5 & the new series x box Does this wheel have the chip in it for Xbox I know the base is ps5 & pc but the wheel is wht matters for Xbox ??????????
The dude that made the pictures for the webshop should be fired. it looks so much better on video. I almost didn't buy it because of how it looked on the pictures
On the EU site it says PC & PS4, but here in Australian site it says PC,PS4 & XBOX ready?? So can I buy it n plug it straight into my Xbox? Or do I have do download drivers etc?
You can do it with fanalab software. It will allow you to create a profile for the game itself then assign the thing you want to be displayed on the rim screen such as speed, gear change, gear engaged and lot more.
there is no click in the shifters because they didn‘t want to have a click there. why is this bad? i guess you can tell from the game if u shifted or not bruh
Nice wheel shame you cant buy them new. The worldwide semi condutor shortage is hitting the manufacturing industry hard. And President Bidens decision to limit semi conductor exports to china is a massive blow.

“And i’ve been using it since i bought it” Best sentence lol
I love this guy. Every wheel that i search for, he has a video about it. And he is also smart. Very good channel, worth a sub!
this means a lot. thank you very much.
Nice review Bacalhau, I like the shots you took and how well you tied them in with the script in the editing process. Keep it up 👆

Glad I could help!
"Thomas approved alcantara grips"
That is a selling point that renders any other information worthless.
Interesting review, have to mention the shifters are highly okay to me. I do like them and having no problems with misshifts …
Yep! Me too.
Oh thats good to hear as mine is boxed for 1 month already. Have the dd wheelbase and clubsport pedals. Thanx guys!!!
Good video. But, I have the Fanatec F1 steeringwheel myself and in +500houres of using it I never had 1 wrong shift.
Did you change anything on the shifters out of the box? Looking at getting this rim
@@Aaron458f Just out of the box bro. It's a great wheel for a decent price from the clubsport series (higher tier) so it is very high quality with lots buttons, great shifters and a very nice feel when driving. I would recommend it any day :)
Anthony Balls ahh thanks man was looking at this rim as don’t need anything over the top and this guys review seemed shit from what I’ve watched
Doesn’t this wheel base and rim work for xbox?
@@masons_wrld no it wont because this is the PS4/PC edition, you will need the X-Box/PC edition ;) I think the powerlight is different also (this is Blue for PS4/ Red for PC the other is Green for Xbox /Red for PC)

I really like the look of this wheel, apart from those damn yellow button surroundings on the top 😂

I Was saving for mine, Ordered it today.

Nice finally a good UA-camr do a video on this wheel :)
Thank you
I got my Fanatec F1 kit last week. 😊 setting it all up with the sim rig tonight

the different geometry increases confort and grip levels. smaller wheels are also faster to rotate.
Am I the only one who got excited that he’s wearing a tarmac specialist shirt? Great video by the way.
One of my favourite wheels at the moment.
great review
I like these Gloves. Where can I buy them?
I love this wheel so much I sleep with mine!!! My wife hates it, but she’s clearly jealous!!!
Does this review contain any A L C A N T A R A?
yes
I want to play f1 with it. Is it possible with only the wheel, without pedals?
How did you get the lights on your CSL base to shut off? I heard that you couldn't, and I'd really love to know how you did it.
Hello I really like your channel very entertaining and I learn a lot, I see that you have a fanatec
I want to ask you something

Will new fanatec systems come for ps5? That is the specific question.
Fanatec has announced compatibility with ps5
Please, get some Karting gloves, it's cheap and works well with Alcantara! What are those gloves? I'm waiting for mine to arrive! Can't wait

Hello, how did you manage to turn off the lights on the base and have only the lights on the steering wheel? Thank you

i am SO CLOSE to confirming this purchase i just need a little more convincing
it's really good.
Is a very nice steering wheel but I got very disappointed with the shifter. Even the P1 wheel has better paddle feeling.

Haven't been able to do that. It works as a pov, not as a hat switch.
@@randomcallsign ok thx
You mean paddles not pedals right?
I am a kid (13) with large hands, say adult medium glove size if that gives any idea, would I be able to use the paddle comfortably?
the new version has a better shifting system?
if you get a xbox ready wheel base and the f1 clubsport wheel will it work on xbox?
Xbox One®: This steering wheel is not compatible to Xbox One.
alcantara needs gloves? if so, i prefer rubber plastic
calls it lower end when i’m here still not able to buy the g29 😂
lower end of fanatec
@@DeOPe lower end of sim racing in general
Can I get the gear on the wheel display instead of the speed? (F12019 PS4)
how is the FFB? Im looking for solid ffb with really smooth feeling, im used to the DFGt with the colunky grinding type of feel. I just want it to feel smooth, good ffb and solid weight when around corners
Richard Styles You will love the Fanatec CSL hahaha
@@SN13K3R sounds good man, ty for the reply
noice review

Cool
Can u use this f1csl elite on ps5 & the new series x box
Does this wheel have the chip in it for Xbox I know the base is ps5 & pc but the wheel is wht matters for Xbox ??????????
fanatec.com/eu-en/steering-wheels/clubsport-steering-wheel-f1-esports
Is it better than the Xbox one competition pack
The dude that made the pictures for the webshop should be fired. it looks so much better on video. I almost didn't buy it because of how it looked on the pictures
On the EU site it says PC & PS4, but here in Australian site it says PC,PS4 & XBOX ready?? So can I buy it n plug it straight into my Xbox? Or do I have do download drivers etc?
not compatible with XBOX one
this is the same wheel as the f1 carbon just w/o carbon?
more or less the case, yes
ooof the delay between your wheel and your screen is brutal
How do you do to have the speed and the gear at the same time?
Hooohoooo
Fanalab
Should i get the old formula carbon wheel or this f1 club sports wheel
F1
nice hat
fenques
This is like a woman shaking her butt right in front of your face, but you can't grab on! There is no Fanatec in this country :(
Nice analogy. Got it? Analogy?
@@randomcallsign Feels like you shoved THAT right in my face too! Pe-ewh!
Where do you live then?
V2 is out!
In the game F1 2020 the screen shows the speed but it Will be Nice if I Can Make it show My gear instead of my speed. Does Some onze know how?
You can do it with fanalab software. It will allow you to create a profile for the game itself then assign the thing you want to be displayed on the rim screen such as speed, gear change, gear engaged and lot more.
Does the cookie monster hat comes with this wheel? 😂
How did you get all those buttons switched out.. i cant get em for the life of me hahah
switched out? those are button covers
@@randomcallsign Yea i got there in the end haha thanks for replying:)!
You can use this with Xbox. However, you need an Xbox compatible wheel.
there is no click in the shifters because they didn‘t want to have a click there. why is this bad? i guess you can tell from the game if u shifted or not bruh
It's always great to have feedback in the shifters. It's basically their only wheel that does this.
Are the buttons assignable on PS4? Or is that just for PC?
most buttons assignable
random callsign Ok
does anyone know if this is compatible with the Gran Turismo DD Pro?
Yes
Does anyone know how I can get my esports f1 wheel to work on ACC as I can’t work out how to get it going I went into settings just can’t get it to go
update firmware maybe? check the forums.
It’s working now had to turn off cordless controll and use the wheel now it works cheers mate
Nice hat
fenques
Lool at that hat...
If only I had a hat like that...I would do great things....
That's a nice hat
Does it work on xbox?
No
Please get some proper gloves. Those look like my deer hunting gloves!! Good video!!!!
mechanix are proper gloves
random callsign guess the camo effect threw me off. I use Sparco. Great video!
Compatible with ps4 or not?
yes
Can anyone help me, will this wheel work on a CSL DD 5NM base?
yes
@randomcallsign thanks for the quick reply I was worrying like crazy
Nice wheel shame you cant buy them new. The worldwide semi condutor shortage is hitting the manufacturing industry hard. And President Bidens decision to limit semi conductor exports to china is a massive blow.
does it work for xbox?
not compatible with xbox
Really sucks it’s only for ps4 etc, Xbox one’s are a lot more expensive :/
Neet
why the fuck are people using gloves when racing at home?
