Fanatec has just unveiled the Porsche 911 GT3-RS V2 wheel, giving their most impressive PC wheel a major upgrade.
The new version of the GT3-RS now features completely new electronics based on their Porsche 911 Turbo S wheel. Furthermore, Fanatec has addressed one of my biggest issues with the wheel and completely re-designed the shifting paddles as you can see below.
Features:
- Full PS3 compatibility
- 3 styles of paddle shifter included:
Button only
Small steel shifter
Big Clubsport Paddle Shifter made of aluminum - Upgradeable firmware
- on/off switch
- More powerful electronics for perfect calibration and precision
Advanced Tuning functions:
- Adjustable ABS vibration for all games (PS3 and PC)
- Adjustable deadzone (no more shaking on straigths)
- Adjustable linearity
- Steering angle from 90?? to 900?? in 10?? steps
- Adjusstable drift mode
The new wheel is available now, selling for 179,95 Euros/US-Dollars for the single wheel or 319,95 Euros/US-Dollars including the Clubsport Pedals.
Existing owners of the old GT3-RS can also take advantage of the improvements as Fanatec is offering an upgrade kit for 40 Euros/US-Dollars.
Upgrading your wheel requires quite some technical skills though so inexperienced users may take advantage of Fanatec’s upgrade service for an additional 30 Euros/US-Dollars plus shipping costs. More info on how to get your wheel upgraded can be found here.
