Product Information

Full details

The Thrustmaster T598-X is designed for sim racing enthusiasts on PC and Xbox who demand high-fidelity force feedback and professional-grade precision. Featuring a revolutionary Direct Axial Drive motor, this system delivers instant response times and clear, cogging-free steering feedback that allows drivers to feel every nuance of the track. While it provides an exceptional level of realism, it is a dedicated wired system that requires a stable mounting surface and adequate space to accommodate the wheel and pedal assembly.

Troubleshooting

Wheel is not detected by the PC or console

Ensure the USB cable is firmly connected to the port and the AC power supply is active.

Force feedback feels weak or unresponsive

Check your in-game settings to ensure the force feedback strength is enabled and updated via the My Thrustmaster Panel.

Pedal inputs are inaccurate

Use the Torx wrench provided to ensure pedals are secured and check that the pedal cable is fully plugged into the servo base.
