Logitech Driving Force Pro review

Driving Force Pro is already a veteran on the world stage the steering wheel for PC and Playstation. However, Logitech is the steering box of his old label said "PS3" and that means they believe that the DFP is still a worthy representative of that riding on the Playstation, and this well-known global brand and to plan for the future. Where, however, now DFP in relation to other steering wheels?

Driving Force Pro is a high quality steering wheel, but it is still behind the GT Driving froc, especially G25 wheel. This situation is, after all, and with the price. DFP has a ring smaller than the G25 and the GT, which in principle is easier to use, but larger diameter of the ring, however what is closer to reality. The ring was lined with near-perfect rubber compound with excellent comfort level increases and decreases the possibility of slipping during strenuous and time-consuming drive. In addition, the arm position is almost ideal. The keys are arranged in the classic PlayStation controller layout. In the center we see the Logitech logo, although the earlier series in the center of the steering wheel had a GT (Gran Turismo) logo, but that title is now left to the successor (Driving Force GT). At the rear, there is no expected DFP butterflies, but a simple good-sized keys. On the one hand, it is the fault, while on the other hand, requires no more than 15 minutes to get used to precisely change. In addition to transmission on the steering wheel, DF Pro also has a sequential gearbox on the right side that is doing the same things as the keys back, and to you to decide what way you shift appropriate.

As far as pedals, these are "ordinary" plastic, which have an advanced system of resistance as a shock through the G25. In addition, see the constructors Logitech managed to get the best out of this construction. The stand is a great size, while the two pedals are large enough and well placed. Brake a little more resistance than gas, as well as ideas and attempt to achieve at least part of the effect of the G25, but unfortunately it's just a good effort that will never be able to achieve results as a G25 with their pedals.

The system mounts the steering wheel is very simple and very good quality. Built-in clamps and large screws that can be turned by hand seem to be very firm and solid and nothing on this issue do not have to reproach. When it comes to that, all things in place, it is good information to the pedals on the bottom with spikes that would be great to keep the rug or carpet. The good news is that the spikes can be retracted so as not to scratched tiles or flooring, but if you put the shoes on this surface, keep in mind that they will not be maximally stable.

Driving Force Pro, and all the wheels of the test (except Vibration Feedback steering wheel) is turning to the left to the right of up to 900 degrees. Previously, we were already on the site He studied topic that 900 degrees is necessary for accuracy and real feeling, and will now make some difficult steering wheel with 180 or 240 degrees, as it used to be commonplace. What makes Driving Force Pro GT behind the G25 and frills, is the "Force Feedback". The FF is doing its job well, but the way it works is too rough. GT and the G25 steering wheel with FF which gives the same feeling, the same level of information, but it is much smoother to use. One might wonder what's the problem. The point is that the Force Feedback wheel on the DFP does not like sudden movements, and accepts only driving school. At a time when the car away and you need a quick adjustment to the position of the wheels, FF is not cooperating so well with the driver, not even close as the Driving Force GT steering wheel and the G25. And this should be added to a growing number of games, including Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, in itself a "Drift" (for what is really unusable DFP).

DFP can be an ideal wheel for those who drive calmly and school. But if you belong to a group of those who flee the car often, often changing directions, you like to drive aggressively and attractive, then the DFP only a very good wheel, but in this case, considerably behind the GT and G25 models.
