My First PlayStation Wheel - Thrustmaster T598 - Desk and Sim Rig Review

Let me know your opinion down in the comments. For myself, I am very much enjoying my time with this wheel on GT7.

EDIT: After a 2 hour play session the wheel base does get pretty hot. Almost too hot to hold your hand on.

I am still new to sim racing, so speaking too deeply on the functionality of the DAD technology would not be a genuine way for me to review this wheel. This video was more meant for people looking to get into sim racing and to show the experience of being hands on with the product. If you would like a deep dive into the functionality of the Direct Axial Drive, head over to @TraxionGG and check out his review!

The T598 was provided by @THRUSTMASTERofficial for review but I was not given any limitations to what I could say and is not a paid promotion! Enjoy!
