- Competitive racing on a controller can be a real struggle. But this controller promises the ultimate racing experience! The Thrustmaster eSWAP X PRO Forza Edition features an integrated steering wheel on the gamepad!
We tested the Thrustmaster eSWAP Controller. Check out the review to find out if the gamepad is truly suitable for simracing.
What do you think, is this the ideal gamepad? Let us know in the comments! 👇✍️

This was kinda a thing in the 2000s i have still a serial port controller with 6 face buttons , shoulder triggers and a dpad with a wheel around the dpad with the same purpose. Can't remember if it had a joystick but yeah not that new , although i really wanted to see this done properly. I guess we're living that moment.
Yeah youre right about that. I read about the previous itterations of hardware like this. Was my first time using something like that though. But nice insight thank you! - Marvin
@@OverTake_gg The old ones tended to have severe hardware limitations - mostly digital inputs. We could do so much more now with modern hall sensors, load cells etc but the design needs to step away from the gamepad form factor.
We need a good RC car pistol style controller. Thumbs are just not good enough for steering - at least mine aren't.
I built a prototype RC style controller in lego with hall sensors and an Arduino microcontroller that is already so much better than a gamepad for sim racing.
Need to add separate brake and accelerator triggers and easy access shifter paddles/buttons and it should be near perfect.
Good idea. I'd be curious to the implementation into racing games though. Would you just use "normal" wheel settings then? - Marvin
@@OverTake_gg Yes, normal wheel settings. I tested my contraption on AC with no controller afforances. Drove beautifully. Couldn't manage it at all with a regular gamepad.
@@OverTake_ggI just made an RC transmitter adaptor that also works great

I was thinking the same thing. There were a couple of these controllers made for the Original PlayStation and N64 back in the day. A modern one would be amazing
@@elbowsout6301 Exactly!
Those old versions were typically digital inputs.
We can get so much more fine grained control now with hall sensors.
A load cell based brake lever could even be incorporated cost effectively I reckon.
I think if the wheel was centered and bigger and allowed the user to use two thumbs, then that would give much more precision and feel more natural.
I tried using the wheel for the accel/decel if mapped to the right stick and it stays mapped to both - I feel like they overlooked the fact that a acceleration module would have been a nice option too its an easy fix if they release another module but for accel/decel - also the spring tension is close but just a little to much and better raised grips on the wheel would prevent it slipping - its pretty good.
The concept reminds me alot of Namco's JogCon back in the PS1 days.
Yeah, I've read a lot about them but never tried them myself back then. Seems to be quite similar. - Marvin
That controller looks pretty nice. It would make forza more playable. I'm going to get one once my power a controller breaks.
If they had force feedback it would be a game changer
Im a right hand gamepad player for normal but i would do the stick on the right stick for more precision
Definitely a preference thing. I am righthanded as well and found it just more comfortable on the left. But good advice - Marvin
What mic is connected to your sweater?
Idk, a gyroscope module would have made more sense? So you use the controller as a steering wheel more naturally.
Interesting idea. Actually would love to test something like that. - Marvin
@@OverTake_gg hey Marvin, just stumbled upon a controller that implements this. Alpakka controller -> watch?v=ENlxAJThBBk
@@OverTake_ggGT Sport on PS4 has this function. Don’t know if GT7 on PS5, but there isn’t reason to throw this function to the trash. It was absolutely amazing ❤️
Cool, is this significantly better than the DualSense (regular version) which is known to have the best gyros for steering and is it also significantly better than the gyros of the Vader 3 Pro?
Thank you. God bless you. Rev. 21:4
Nice gimmick like the joy-con wheel but that's it.
Yep think so as well. This will always come back as a feature in some form I feel like. - Marvin
I mean I'm not saying anything bad here, but I'm. just having a different experience
Do the removable sticks and Dpad feel loose at all while placed in the controller? Even a little but would kill me. What about over time, do they loosen?
Has anyone in CHAT used one of these?
No, i just got one, it's solid - magnetically held in place.
@IIMANIXII thanks for responding man, appreciate it. I'm thinking of getting one, my only reservation is that I'm afraid they would loosen over time. I use a xbox elite 2 rn..
bro, I'm doing fine on f1?
perfect goldlewis pad
Forza is already great with a controller, but I'd love this for the PS5 for GT7. Not that GT7 is the worst with a controller, but the inputs are not smoothed over nearly as well as they are in the Forza games.
I 100% agree. Have played GT7 with Gamepad a lot and if there was a precise way to input with controller I'm sure it would be huge. But would also need to be done correctly then. Was very impressed with the gamepad feeling of Forza however. - Marvin
maybe it works better if you hold it like a RC car control? two fingers on the "wheel", and use two fingers on throttle and brake
Great comment! Not enough fine control using thumbs. An RC car controller is almost exactly what is needed.
I did think about that as well but didn't know how they'd be implementing that, given that some games already struggle with this wheel - Marvin
ich würde das rad wirklich mal gerne ausprobieren weil es sehr interessant klingt. mein lieblingsgere sind racing games, deshalb würde ich wirklich gerne wissen, ob es sich damit besser steuern lässt. aus der entfernung würde ich sagen, dass die zentrierung wichtig ist weil man sich ja sonst einen wolf kurbelt jedesmal. übrigens, man kann auch den standart controller kaufen und mit dem wheel aufrüsten, der kostet dann weniger weil das wheel modul nur 30 euro kostet.
How unnessecary do you want it?
YES!
I think you can tune the sens game to game to make it better. You showed it at first you can do that
Yes certainly and it helps in some situations. Just from my experience there are some games who have a general problem with the wheel. Adjusted or not. - Marvin
No way that is good.
This is not a new concept and died off for a reason, its slower and less precise than sticks.
Gimmick, notnworth buying
Can defo see that argument. - Marvin
Far from it, it's fun as hell, abd I'm. doing fine even on the games he's not.
in 2024 a controller with wire 🤣🤣🤣
