Hey Guys...
Just looking for some hints & tips to make sure I'm on the right track for my wheel and pedal setup.
I'm currently running a CSW V1 wheel base modified with larger/stronger FFB motors plus a four rib belt to drive the FFB so as to minimize or eliminate any slipping due to the stronger motors. I'm running with the BMW GT rim.
I have recently upgraded to a set of CST F1 pedals (3 pedal set)
I have got them both set up in iracing without too many problems but it seems to be proving a little more difficult to tune them in for Automobilista (AC & RRE seem a little confusing also and I'm not so sure I have them dialed in properly there either)... although that's for another post.
So... this is what I'm running at the moment:
Wheel... ffb settings: I'm pretty happy with the way ffb feels for now, but open to suggestions if it can be improved at all!
Pure 360hz
85% ffb strength
0% low force boost
Wheel... sensitivity settings: This is where I need some help!
0% for deadzones (inc centre, lower & upper)
45% sensitvity - I discovered today that this setting seems to allow for 1:1 rotation between the csw wheel and the in game wheel (at least that seemed to be the case for the Stockcar 2017 using a default setup - steering lock etc) haven't really tested any other cars yet.
Pedal... sensitivity settings:
Accelerator - 0% deadzone (lower)
- 95% deadzone (upper - to guarantee full throttle when fully depressing the pedal)
- 0% sensitivity (I find the higher this is set the faster the throttle comes on and the harder the car is to control)
Brake (Load Cell) - 0% deadzone (lower)
- 75% deadzone (upper - to get to threshhold braking without having to fully depress the brake pedal)
- 100% sensitivity (so I can use the full range of the load cell)
Clutch - 20% deadzone (lower - trying to simulate a clutch pedal travel)
- 60% deadzone (upper - again... to replicate pedal travel)
- 0% sensitivity (as with the throttle, if the sensitivity is too high it seems to act more as an on/off switch rather than a pedal) It's also hard to fully tune the clutch properly as I don't have a H shifter at the moment.
That's my current settings for AMS and any hints or tips would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers...
Jason.

I do have the sensitivity setting on the wheel set to 'auto' on the wheel base as well as rotation at 900 degrees in the fanatec properties page. What I have found with the in game settings though is that with the 'sensitvity' set at 25% (for example) when I have the wheel showing in game and I turn my rim to 90 degrees the in game wheel doesn't turn to 90 degrees, this results in the need to turn my wheel further in order to get a car to go around any given turn in game, essentially giving me the feeling of an un-responsive car. On the other hand though, if I go the other way and set it to 75% it means the in game wheel actually turns much further than what I'm turning my rim giving me a very 'twitchy' feeling car. (hope that makes sense?)
