Thrustmaster, New York, August 25 th, 2006 - Thrustmaster is proud to unveil the world’s first five-axis, three-pedal Force Feedback racing wheel and pedal set. The Rally GT Force Feedback Pro Clutch Edition is so complete you may find yourself looking for the indicator switch! This groundbreaking three-pedal model is based on the massively popular RGT FFB Pro – the first five-axis wheel and pedal set on the market. The new model features a new full-size sequential gearshift knob, two new reinforced wheel-mounted sequential levers, twin wheel-mounted progressive levers, Force Feedback and belt-driven gear system with new metal collar.and now three adjustable pedals. The RGT FFB Pro Clutch Edition provides all the sensations of real driving – use the brake pedal with natural resistance, work the clutch, balance your power slides, throw the car into turns and leave your opponents in the dust!
Your choice of driving style The RGT Pro Clutch Edition caters equally well for demanding simulation drivers and novice gamers. Users can switch between using five axes and four axes with all three pedals via a switch located behind the base of the wheel, while Force Feedback can easily be toggled on and off with a press of a button. Advanced drivers can even set up the pedals for ‘heel-and-toe’ downshifting.
A new level of realism State-of-the-art features, advanced functionality and superior build quality put the RGT FFB Pro Clutch Edition at the front of the grid. Gamers can not only get the most out of new racing games, but also rediscover their old titles, playing in a whole new, more realistic way.
The Thrustmaster Rally GT Force Feedback Pro Clutch Edition will be available for Christmas 2006. Noobie me have been racing with it for two months and it certainly is a terrific wheel, so much more precise than the old one (Saitek). The shifter is a pain, really, but maybe I just got used too much to shifting with wheel pedals, who knows.
The three pedals are terrific (in my view), give you a very good, controlled feel of what you are doing. The setting options are sensible and helpful, besides having 8 buttons on the wheel, you also have two more next to the shifter which are perfect for quick use of functions you don't want to use every race but still need from time to time, e.g. Calling for a pit stop in Race07 (not that that command cahnges the mechanics' speed much.). All in all, for paying less than half of the G25 price, it's very very good value, can only recommend it. Like taking the last step before finally doing the full monty, i.e.
Buying a G25 or some vpp equipment! I bought one before the 3 pedal version came out, although you could buy an extra pedal set and have four pedals, strangely enough. I had a problem with the digital gear paddles when the actuator snapped, a few emails to thrustmaster and the sent me some revised ones out (a full set plus microswitches when I only need the shift down one)with full step by step (in pictures) guide to swapping them.
These had an extra gusset which improved the strength, changed both to be sure. I was told this DIY repair didn't invalidate my two year warranty and 2 years later it's still going strong. Good solid wheel, excelent clamp, more than enough buttons, Analogiue and digital paddles (I actually use the analogue ones for gears now, very,very sensitive), very strong FFB and the best pedals I've ever used.
I would like to leave some of my feedback here from my RGT wheel. Now am not the best at looking after my wheels, I tend to drop them sometimes and am pretty rough with them (why I need a G25 or ECCI as there allot tougher, ECCI more so) so take this with a pinch of salt if you like. One problem I have had that was not due to me being rough was the gear shifter paddles (known problem with the RGT) I've had to replace them 4 times now due to them wearing out, there easy to replace and thrustmaster will send you them no problem but I've been in a couple of races where I suddlenly couldn't shift properly due to the paddle sticking and it ruined my race as a result. Another problem is the belt inside slips allot but that might be due to my very aggresive driving and being a little too rough with the wheel, also the rubber is a bit warn on mine now too. The pedals are bloody awesome though, so solid and very smooth, they have not let me down once.
The FFB is good on the wheel but I feel I need something allot tougher to cope with my demands, for the price you cant expect too much though. I have been using an old thrustmaster wheel for some weeks now mainly because of problems i have with my hands and the thinner thrustmaster wheel is less painful for me to use. I do think the momo is more precise but not by much and the thrustmaster has better pedals but i really prefer the thrustmaster software as it is very easy to adjust the pedal travel to eliminate any spiking from the brake and throttle or to assign any of the numerous buttons for teamspeak. So if i were to buy a new wheel then yes i would probably buy the RGT before the G25. Click to expand.I know what you mean about the paddles, that's why I changed gear shift to the analogue paddles.

I change gear now with the slightest of flicks because the lever doesn't have to travel to, and stop abruptly on a microswitch. Obviously that is what weakens them and eventually leads to them failing. Not had a problem with the belt, I do consider myself quite smooth though, I definitely don't saw away at the wheel, even through tight chicanes. Sorry Stel, the shifter is right hand mounted and fixed. Personally I use it for lights and (GTL) handbrake/(GTR2) pit limiter/(GTR:E)wipers. Been using paddles on a wheel since F1 '97 on PS1, much better to have two hands on the wheel at all times in my opinion.
