I got my C5 a couple of days back (along with the CP5 pedals).
I also have a TH8S shifter and T-LCM pedals.
You can plug the shifter and pedals from thrustmaster into the USB C ports on the C5 (A to C adaptor used) and they work.
The 2 Type C ports are just a USB hub.
So 3 devices 1 usb port.
@@Gouranga_Man this is an extremely important information, thankyou
@@npaz24 no worries.
After getting a cockpit and monitor this wheel is all I could afford.
Got mine from the UK
Warehouse.
The wheel is fantastic. Massive upgrade from a T300. Lack of "ecosystem" is a blessing. Whenever I feel i want a 15nm wheel im free to choose Moza Asetek or whatever i fancy
Would you mind pointing me in the right direction. The links in the description are'nt of much use
I just ordered the Cammus C12 and the LC100 pedals. looking forward to this. looks like a full upgrade on the c5 with the added 12nm torque. The wait games begins.
I need to get this set, but I got to graduate uni first.
What I love about it, is that it looks compact so as someone who doesnt have space to have a dedicated rig, this is perfect because I can put it away when I am done and wont add to the clutter I have. Also the price point is soooo competitive, Cammus really is going after the beginner market hard.
I bought the Cammus C5 bundle and table clamp. Shipping to the USA was $114.90 and my bank charged me another $12 to use PayPay international fee. It took 3 weeks for it to arrive. Tracking info was useless. I like the C5 wheel , but the pedals are not very good and have no feel other than a spring. I replaced the pedals with Fanatec CSL pedals. The Fanatec pedals are $79.99 and require a USB adapter ($19.99) if you aren't using a Fanatec wheel base. So far The tach and speedometer doesn't work. I have sent a help request to Cammus, but haven't received a reply.
This review sold me. Watched a lot of review but yours feels detailed enough to be dependable!
C5 is AWESOME!!! A tiny DD with 5nm! What more could anyone ask for!
For all future new owners of this wheel, thanks for all the tips added in the video. They'll be life savers to future owners.
Could you say your Forza Motorsport settings in game + cammus software please?? Thanks!
Upgraded to this from my first wheel (T300) bought in 2015 or so. I would have liked a bigger rim, but other than that I am extremely happy with it. The torque is just about right for me. When racing a car without power steering and using it at its max power (with little clipping), it puts up a good fight against my muscles without being too much to handle. I don't know what it feels like to race a car without power steering, but to me it feels about right since it's a challenge but not too overpowered either.
Mods are out for gt wheel and am sure a full round wheel for rally will come out with mods
Thanks my friend, great review
C5 was much better than my previous thrustmaster t300 I am happy with my c5
the review is here but my C5 is still not here 😅 (am patiently waiting its the holidays delays happen 🤷🏻♂️) great review i was exited for it, i mean you already hinted to me that it was gonna be positive and it was despite a lot of hate/negative comments i see about the C5, you took your time and tested it in multiple games/sims and proved its an amazing wheel specially at price to performance so thank you and Cammus you both did a great job 🙏🏻💛
Can you make a video showing the settings from the game and the app from the games that you playing. I will help a lot.
Thanks a lot for your videos
I received mine yesterday, I am happy with it so far with the only exception being Forza, I have no idea on what settings to use since I can't feel it right in all the others game It works wonderful. Big upgrade from my TS xw with belts in reaction time and immediately noted a difference in details, except in Forza where I prefer the feeling of the TS xw
Forza was a joke from the start, it's no wonder you don't understand the settings... it's only this game where you don't understand anything.
It has also lost more than half of its players, there are not many people playing there anymore.
Don't waste your time with this game, it should disappear soon
From my experience with the newer forza is wheels just don't feel very good in it in general
did you select the forza checkbox setting in the cammus from the video? looks like it needs to be temporarily enabled just for that game.
@@robertulrich3964 that's for Forza horizon
Thank you for your review. I have to say that those small fins worry me a lot...
if i had not got a deal on a hardly used G Pro Wheel i was looking to get this wheel, Great review mate keep up the work
I bought this a year ago and then paddle shifter were metal.
And all the push buttons were machined aluminum.
Got one of these and the shifters are really poor, I'm on my 3rd set as they are plastic? Why not aluminium? When you contact them about your warranty they just send another set out. Apart from that the wheel and feedback are very good so it is a shame the corners have been cut by putting on sub standard shifters 😔
it looks like they have changed the ability to switch the display to a gear indicator. is it also able to read out in mph now?
Yes, that's correct.
@@SimRacingCorner Nice 😎
Which wheel stand Pro Version did you use with the wheel and Pedals as theres quite a few different versions of the stand
I bought it second-hand, so I couldn't say.
I want to get one just because of there out of the box thinking . Pretty cool !
That's what I really wanted to get one in, It's a very smart design.
There a Welsh guy on eBay selling great little clip on gear extenders. Bloody great wheel.
Pedals are shite mine were binned before I ever used the wheel 🤣 magnets incorrectly specced
Hi Dude is the movement of the wheel smooth or low-friction like moza R5.
Pretty neat idea really .
I like what I see and hear about the wheel but that overheating issue worrie
can it be run on macos with apple silicon? with or without parallel desktop app
A question SRC, would you still consider the C5 a good buy in todays market? I bet you know how shady cammus business is and their costumer support, but leaving that aside, would you still think it is worth purchasing? It would cost me 230$ via amazon, I already have a Simsonn LC pedal set, comming from a G29.
Thank you
Yes, it's still a good one!
Yeah, it would be also make sure to mod it and get the extended paddle shifters mod I believe you can 3d print it
which pedals would you recommend with this ? something cheap but better than those
The SimJack Pro pedals are a good option. ua-cam.com/video/vgcxGt2xd7E/v-deo.html
the Cammus LC100 pedals would be perfect with this.
Can you attach a shifter to it?
I really wanted to take such a steering wheel. But I did not wait for it to be sold in my country. As a result, I bought a Moza R9, and in the largest store in the country, at a price even slightly less than the MCRP on moza's website. But I don't feel any relief, I feel sorry for the money))
What rig you upgraded from?
@@liviu543 Т300
Can we mount this on the stands/setups made for G29/T300? As in are the dimensions wide enough to fit those stands or we gotta make our own or use a table?
Yes, that should be fine. I do demonstrate it, mounted on a Wheel Stand Pro later in the review.
Thanks for clearing it mate. Now I can peacefully buy this and a stand (that supports G29/T300RS) @@SimRacingCorner
@@wolfwirestudioshow Is the wheel
I purchased this 3 weeks ago I've not heard a word from them except for a receipt they sent to my email there's no way to track your order I sent three emails out with no replies. At this point I think there's a scam.😢😢
Any Updates?
It's not a scam they just don't have tracking but U will get your product. I believe they give a date as well
A Question S.r corner, funciona los Leds y RPM en Grid Legend? In the video you can't just see the pedals
They didn't work for me in this game.
Do you get the road effects when you turn the road effects to 0% ?
Yes
Wheel size is ridiculous for rallying and drifting. Because of smaller leaverage it has more torque i believe. And the price is not great, at least in europe shipping is very expensive. Kinda reminds me those aliexpress deals when you see price lower but shipping higher.
To address the question of torque. It is a small wheel and that does increase felt strength, but that's not relevant to the rated motor torque output measurement.
Cammus has to have more local resellers. This the only way to get the price down. I got my R16 from a local store. Where guys are passionate about simracing. And shipping is fast and free. Not like Moza e-shop. 3-4 weeks of wating and 30€ for shipping.
As for C5 i like it. Great idea. Compact size, good ffb. Ideal bundle for people who travel a lot working.
@@SimRacingCorner Oh, i appreciate the clarification
This is the generally accepted size for cheap handlebars. Yes, I agree that more is better, but then it would have cost more.
You just don't get into the target audience.
Too bad it's retailing at 699AUD while the CSLDD R2R bundle is retailing at 639AUD.
It makes no sense to bring it to our market at that price. But at least it's an "option" here I guess
Where did you see that price listed? Directly from Cammus from their AUS warehouse, it's certainly much cheaper than what you've said.
@SimRacingCorner I wasn't aware of an Australian warehouse. It retails at clutch kick racing for the aforementioned price.
But the links below in the Google search are to their website.
It says "maybe you can order from our overseas warehouse?" But the pricing is in USD and I have no idea what import taxes and GST etc will equal afterwards.
But I feel it should be attainable at roughly 400AUD, not 700AUD
If you manage to watch to the end of the review, I do talk about the warehouses. There's no extra import duty as it's shipped from a warehouse within that country. That's the reason Cammus set up localised distribution.
@SimRacingCorner ok that's awesome. Please excuse me for that... I had ran out of lunch break time
got mine and the ffb is not bad and it's the only pro of this wheel. My right paddle shifter broke after 70 hours of use and their customer service is extremely lazy and slow ( they arranged the package after a week and still haven't sent it and many others have been waiting for updates on their packages for more than a month and only one person that works at their customer service speaks english ) i wouldn't recommend this wheel or any of cammus's products. Don't buy chinese products
PS Their firmware updates are always buggy and laggy
Why not buying Chinese products? I am sure that a lot of people are happy with their (100% Chinese) Simagic and Moza gear, Fanatec is developed in Germany but produced in China as well. From a political point of view I can understand why people might avoid 100% Chinese products though.
@@Frank_Steven_Groen get a cammus product and you'll see why
@@Frank_Steven_Groen leave the politics to the politicians, we civilians are all the same the world over and need to stand together regardless of regime.!
Btw i always buy Chinese products and some are good and some are not, same as anywhere else really!
I went fanatec csl dd and omg is it detailed, excellent wheel base.!
@@Frank_Steven_Groen because of racism lol, they don’t care about quality of product. Moza is arguably the best in terms of quality and power (Logitech for reliability lol)
@@Frank_Steven_Groen wait till the poster realises 95% of everything you buy is made in China but sold elsewhere with hefty price increases.
Bumper car steering wheel.
under rated comment
вы получаете на халяву и нахваливаете, кто бы спорил только ни за эти деньги
Cammus are failing BIG time, still time for them to turn it around but i highly doubt it, they will be gone within a few more years with no more firmware updates..!
Stick to fanatec, the detail is unrivalled imo.!
it's clear that you've understood everything about life!!! ahahah
@@Micciante317 lol, go on, tell me cammus are smashing it and i have egg on my face.!
the ugliest dd wheel i've ever seen
bruh XD
