Thrustmaster T-LCM - Loadcell Pedal set for PS5 / PS4 / Xbox Series X|S / Xbox One / Windows

Product Information

The main attraction of the T-LCM set, as apparent by its name, is the load cell sensor underneath the brake pedal. Although other pedals in the Thrustmaster ecosystem offer spring adjustments like the T3PM set, the choices here are far more in-depth and customizable. The racing wheel base must be connected directly to a USB port of the platform used (PC or console). When it comes to gaming, especially in the adrenaline-pumped world of racing, the importance of high-quality, responsive pedals cannot be overstated. Your gaming pedals aren’t just footrests, they’re your connection to the virtual road, your means of control, they’re what stands between victory and second place. Thanks to the USB cable allowing console compatibility, they'd complement any of the best racing wheels for Xbox Series X|S, alongside any compatible PC. Both stiff red springs can be combined with a specific plastic spacer for the most substantial resistance and feel fantastic.

All adjustments made on the T-LCM Pedals with the T-LCM Calibration Software will be saved in the pedal set. This will allow them to be applied to another gaming platform (PC or console). Thrustmaster’s renowned proprietary H.E.A.R.T (HallEffect AccuRate Technology) system gives racers the opportunity to experience incredibly lifelike sensations, thanks to magnetic sensors allowing for up to 16-bit resolution. Upon unboxing the T-LCM Pedals, you’re immediately greeted with a sense of sturdy construction and high-end finish. These pedals are built like a tank, thanks to the industrial-grade aluminium and steel. The robust nature of the materials used ensures that the pedals are built to last, delivering consistent performance for years to come. Now let’s get down to the nitty-gritty: what was it like actually using the Thrustmaster T-LCM Pedals? Connecting the USB cable of the racing wheel base (when the T-LCM Pedals pedal set is connected to the racing wheel base with its RJ12 cable)

IMPORTANT NOTE: the T-LCM Pedals pedal set is a plug and play device.

Due to the load cell sensors inside the brake module, the pedals have a class-leading maximum force of 100kg (220lb). To make the most of this feature, it’s more than advised to secure them to a sim rig, which is just as easy as securing any other set of pedals via the screws on the underside of the metal pedal plate. Still, the T-LCM pedals outclass the rest of the Thrustmaster range without attaching unfair price inflation, so if you can stretch your budget, you shouldn't regret it. Thrustmaster T-LCM: Should you buy? While it does come with a premium price tag, the value it offers justifies the investment. Whether you’re an amateur gamer dipping your toes into the racing genre or a seasoned professional looking for a gear upgrade, the T-LCM Pedals offer an elevated gaming experience that’s hard to match. In terms of how they feel and react in-game, they have been great. The clutch and gas pedal require little force to push and act as you would expect and the brake pedal allows for precision when braking and feels very realistic to one in a real car. I will admit that I did take a few days to get used to them and most people usually do. To start with, they have HallEffect AccuRate Technology, which ensures precision that won’t decrease over time. Plus, the adjustable mechanical brake force, thanks to the inclusion of a set of six springs, means you can customize your experience to suit your racing style. To add to that, the pedals have an impressive adjustable pressure force and travel, and let’s not forget the independent adjustable pedal incline setting. All this comes together to ensure a gaming experience that’s tailored to your comfort and your need for speed.

Load Cell force sensor technology: up to 220 lb / 100 kg of pressure, for the perfect amount of braking power.
