I can’t compare this to a real load cell brake pedal as I’ve never used one but from what I’ve read and heard it does seem to provide a similar load related braking effect.

All the components are housed in a 6061-T6 aluminium body and cylinder, CNC machined by AXC and designed to fit perfectly inside the Logitech pedal assembly. The end result is a robust and reliable pedal where the braking control is about pedal load rather than pedal travel. Just like a brake pedal should be! Is TrueBrake a load cell? A sim racing setup is incomplete without a handbrake. For all the drifting fans out there, and especially for those interested in rally games like DiRT, a handbrake is a very essential accessory. Most people assign the handbrake function to a button on the wheel, which works fine for occasional engagement. It’s only when you’re making hairpin turns, and desperately need to be perfect, you realise that you need a handbrake solution; because every split second matters.I put some scales against a wall to test my braking force with my office chair and got about 25kg or 30kg at a push, so went with the green spring, which seems to have been the right answer (I can push hard but don’t need to push my chair over to reach 100%). Having the kg rating on the spring options really helped there. For info, I have an office chair with castor cups and my pedals are set against a wall. Now once installed the brake is Hard and I would say if you don’t have a rigid sim frame it could be an issue as the force required is substantial. So if you have a foldable playseat the frame will definitely move under braking. Initially I struggled to adjust to the new pedal feel, but after a few tests and edits in Logitech software I found the correct set up in pedal force (48% in G-Hub). With the original set, and the Playset Challenger, my main issues were: TrueBrake is a tried and tested upgrade for the for the Logitech Brake Pedal. Made from CNC machined aluminium, TrueBrake also uses top quality components. No cheap 3D printed 😆 plastic parts! Fitting TrueBrake changes the pedal to feel positive and realistic in a similar way to a load cell. It is the most appropriate and cost effective brake pedal mod available for your Logitech brake pedal. For all Thrustmaster racing wheels, you can use any USB handbrake like the Fanatec ClubSport, Thrustmaster TSS or Aiologs handbrake by connecting it to the USB port on PC.

Although Logitech does not make a handbrake for their racing wheels, you can use any of the three USB handbrakes, Fanatec ClubSport, Thrustmaster TSS or Aiologs handbrake with the DriveHub to make them work with Logitech G29 on PS4. Handbrake for Thrustmaster T300 and T-GT on PS4 To sum up if you are looking for a good upgrade on your G29/920 set and have a rigid frame go for it it’s the best mod out there. To round out my racing setup, I bought an authentic emergency brake handle. It’s a real car emergency brake handle that provides analog input. Instead of pressing a button to go full on e-brake, you can apply a little or a lot of brake. Worth the wait and the cost. It’s transformed my old G27 pedals. I fitted the Truebrake, then put the old brake spring into the clutch, making it feel more like a proper car clutch; then I moved the clutch spring into the accelerator, which improved the stiffness. over the original.

Another of my Christmas presents was the Logitech G920 racing wheel. I love Forza Horizon 5 with the Logitech G920 racing wheel. It’s a decent upgrade over my old Logitech G27 racing wheel. The game and new wheel are the perfect combination. Found and fixed an issue with the brake pedal. Now I just need more time to play between just finishing Halo and starting Death Stranding (more on that weird game in a later post). Racing in Forza Horizon 5 with my Logitech G920 Wheel Setup Note: In a handful of games that support USB input on PS4, ie. Assetto Corsa, Dirt Rally, DiRT 4, WRC 7 and SLRE, you can use any USB handbrake (Fanatec ClubSport, Thrustmaster TSS or Aiologs handbrake) via USB and map it as a standalone device. Handbrake for Logitech G29 on PS4 With the TrueBrake mod, you can achieve better control over braking inputs. The progressive resistance allows for more precise modulation, making it easier to apply the desired amount of braking force consistently. Changing to True Brake solved both issues. I am now lapping with very constant pace. I am very far from ACC record laps, (but for that no mod or gear is going to help LOL) but I am now enjoying the racing. I can be consistent, and I can try to push always a bit more to find the limit. If you do not have the budget, or the space to install a full size rig with expensive sets, this is a no brainer.

TrueBrake changes your relationship with the brake pedal to a load based sensation. It enhances the brake pedal feel and provides a more realistic experience. It introduces progressive resistance to the brake pedal, simulating the feel of a hydraulic brake system. Installation was fairly easy - there are a large number of screws to remove which takes time, then you have to remove the pedal assembly and detach the existing wires from the brake pedal. Once that's done you choose one of the two options for pedal travel before the brake engages and install the TrueBrake replacement into the pedal. The connecting wires can then be attached to the new component and then everything can be re-assembled.I only use Project Cars 2 currently. So I calibrated the pedals in game and tried the modified brake out. Despite that, I was always looking for braking feel, each lap would almost feel completely different.
