1 Thunder V5 racing wheel for PS3, Operating instructions

From the manufacturer

2in1 steering wheel for Sony PS3 and PC

Realistic game play in racing games and simulations

With the Thunder V5, you get complete control over every imaginable vehicle: whether tractors, buses, trucks, powerful off-road vehicles or high-horsepower racing cars - the steering wheel provides a highly realistic driving experience through responsive control units, precise motion reproduction and force feedback effects. Climb into the cockpit and immerse yourself in a world full of steep serpentines, uncultivated plantations, rough off-road tracks and steaming asphalt - with the Thunder V5, you're in the thick of it, not just being there.

At a glance:

Diameter steering wheel: 26 cm
Tilt angle steering wheel: 180 °
Connection: USB
For: for Windows 98SE / ME / 2000 / XP / Vista / 7/8/10

High ride comfort

Especially in racing games can hardly keep an input device with a real steering wheel when it comes to ease of use and precision. The Thunder V5 convinces here by a particularly pleasant feel and better handling by rubberized grip surfaces and large contact surfaces in the brake and accelerator pedals.

Immersive driving experience

Although racing games can also be driven by automatic transmission, gear shifting is definitely more fun! That's why responsive paddle shifters are located on the left and right of the steering wheel, allowing you to shift through the aisles in an instant for driving situations that are right for the situation. In conjunction with the analogue accelerator and brake pedals you dive right into the game and control your vehicle as in a real cockpit.

Realistic track feel thanks to Force Feedback

If you value a lifelike driving experience, the Thunder V5 is the perfect choice. By means of two motors, a resistance is artificially created, which - as in real life - e.g. steering is difficult, you should get off the road with your vehicle on unpaved terrain. This effect is reinforced by a vibration of the steering wheel, just as if you were actually driving on gravel.

Double secured

The faster the race, the harder the steering - the steering wheel should therefore really bombproof on the surface sit, otherwise it is quickly over with the game pleasure. For this reason, the V5 not only has large suction cups, but can also be firmly screwed to the table by means of a clamping system.

Tacky, over sensitive and overall, bad.

A huge mistake was made when I purchased this wheel. A fan of simulation games, I thought that this would be a cheap addition to my PC rig in which I could play ETS2/ATS with. How wrong. The buttons override one another, so I couldn't assign functions to all of the buttons, rendering their need useless. The steering I could never get right and always went from one extreme to the other with it's sensitivity, in spite of barely adjusting the in game sensitivity. The desk clamp isn't very useful and the suction cups didn't really do the trick, so the wheel spent a lot of the time slipping across my desk. As for build quality, the pedals felt stressed under my feet, and the plastics are very thin, I wouldn't expect it to last. Overall, a total waste of money, not worth getting and it's totally flimsy.

Bought this racing wheel a while ago, It feels very sturdy and well built. The only problem is changing the steering sensitivity. i have looked everywhere on the web to find out how to change the steering sensitivity. for some games it just isnt sensitive enough set at the default setting. if anyone knows how to change it please tell me. Thanks.

Not Windows 7/10 compatible

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 26 March 2019

I really liked the feel of this steering wheel but sadly, despite what the user manual says, it is NOT compatible with Windows 7 or Windows 10... both of which stubbornly identify it as an Xbox 360 controller. Thus it is impossible to correctly assign buttons, in particular the paddles either side of the wheel which actually override the two foot pedals.
