Guillemot Thrustmaster T500 RS
Release Date: January 5, 2011

The Thrustmaster T500 RS, developed specifically for Gran Turismo 5, is a high end steering wheel that pushes the limits of power and precision.

The sheer weight of the controllers is indicative of the care Thrustmaster took in developing a premium product, with the steering weighing in at 10.1lbs, and the pedals 16lbs.

The sturdy 30cm diameter steering wheel is reinforced with metal spokes and a 16 bit magnetic sensor with a 65536 step resolution which detects the controller's position, providing maximum precision and steering control.

Force feedback is provided by, an industrial motor with 150Nm torque and 65w output which quickly and accurately delivers steering feedback.

The innovation behind this controller is also evident in the all-metal pedals. The pedal layout consists of three pedals including a durable footrest. By changing the footrest position, a "floor-mounted" F1 style, or a "suspended" GT pedal configuration.

The brakes also offer incredible touch. With a foot pressure "weight" of 157N, the T500 RS brakes allow precision braking control.

With a steering angle range of 900 degrees (2.5 turns from lock to lock), The Driving Force™ GT is equivalent to real-world cars, and the powerful force feedback provides rich steering feedback to the drivers hands.

An adjustment dial on the steering spoke allows you to change brake balance and traction control settings even while driving. Shifting gears is possible using either the buttons on the back of the steering wheel, or with the shift lever to the side of the steering wheel.
