PXN V9 Racing Wheel Set Review - A Lot for a Little? 

The controller port/lead would be to enable the use of the wheel on the PS4/5 and XBox. It would be to utilise the controller security chip.

A nice honest review Mike. So many people would compare this to a Fanatec and say it's rubbish but the truth is if you are really struggling for cash this might be the best thing you can buy. And you have just proved that it is perfectly usable as a base wheel and allow people to just try the hobby and see how they do.

One entry level wheel I'd be very interested to see a review of is the Hori DLX. Hori's well known for gamepads and fight sticks and they made a bunch of bungee cord wheels in the past but they recently made a gear driven 900° FFB wheel that competes in price and features to the Logitech wheels. No simracing channels seem to have made a review on it yet though. It would be interesting if it's good enough to be worth buying over a Logitech wheel.

Ok...no ffb is a bit of a killer but having an H-pattern is a pretty impressive extra feature. Great look at the product!

that's an amazing package for the price...(!!!) I'm always glad to see inexpensive entry-level equipment to get MORE people into our wonderful/terrible little hobby of sim racing!! :)

Well, if it's a beginner Budget friendly, but great value for money shifter with great longetvity that you're looking for, SHH is the way to go! You get enough gears to drive Freddy's C7 Corvette* with, H-Pattern and Sequential with a Changeover that lasts less than 30 seconds, with full changeover including the Sequential knob and Top plate (sold seperately) in under a minute, great shifting feel in both modes, nearly no misshifts and all that for under a hundred euros. 98+Postage to be exact. Even if you buy the Sequential plate, you will pay about 110 Euros+Postage for it. That is 68 Euros (80 if you don't get the sequential plate) less than for a TH8A Shifter, and that one is an absolute PITA to change to sequential mode. The TH8A has lost all reason to exist IMO. Only downside is the wait right now, it's about 4 weeks from order to fnishing the production, plus shipping, but it's not as bad as when I ordered it in early summer, it was about six weeks back then. Funny thing is, I had a friend over that recently replaced his G27 (modded) with a T300 and was like "Yeah, a Shifter is not really a priority for me." Well, we tried the shifter out and he went "Well that shifter is actually pretty good, makes the shifts (in AMS 2) really nice and that one might even make shifting fun in games like ETS (Euro Truck Simulator), where I normally only run automatics." At the end of the first day he was looking into the payment options and before he had left, he had ordered his own SHH Shifter, like me with the Sequential plate. If you don't have one and want a shifter, yeah the Logitech G-Shifter is about 50 Euros right now........but remember: a) you need a logitech wheel or an adapter for it, b) to make that one feel good, you need an upgrade kit like the 3drap one, which costs about 27,90-35,40 Euros+Postage so you're at about 78-85 Euros. c) you're still not going to have a proper sequential mode like on here, yeah you can get a sequential plate for the 3drap cambio V3 mod, but it's doutable. d) it's all 3d printed plastic in the Mod, unlike the more durable metal internals of the SHH. and e) it's still only 14-26 Euros less than the SHH Shifter, which works right out of the box and does not require you to void warranty. I mean I like tinkering, including scale modelling, so having to build something is not a negative in my view, but there are some people who don't really like doing that, my friend included. (Yeah I also built his computers for him, he orders the parts, and I get free bed, board and beer when I come over to do that! :D *Friend of mine named Frederick used to own a C7 Stingray, no I'm not a massive Corvette Fanboy, but it was a bugbear of mine that you couldn't properly drive the Corvette in AC properly with the Logitech G-Shifter as it had one gear to few. ;)

I haven't watched the whole episode yet but this is a great price for a beginning wheel/pedals/shifter setup.

This looks like a great option for switch owners. I saw in another review that the parking brake button on the H-pattern shifter is actually a toggle switch, so the h-pattern can be used as a handbrake. Paddles + Handbrake for those rally guys. Nice review Mike. $255 in Canada FYI.

Just Bought It A Few Days Ago Coming In Today! Hope Its Good

For racing sims I probably wouldn't, but this looks like it might be a great option for Eurotruck/Americantruck/Farm Simulators and it has a dedicated low/hi range switch. Even with my T150 broken and out of commission and with a severe lack of monies I'm not sure if this would be a potential buy for me...

when I try to drift with these I don't know if Im just bad at driving or force feedback is essential to drifting and then I watched a video someone using PXN V9 to drift and just realized im just really bad at driving 🤣

Thanks for sharing. What is the name of the driving game you were testing the PXN V9 with?

I got the much cheaper v900 as i only play casual and a few sim racing games… very good for the price and i enjoy using it esp i only have a table and forcefeedback will shake everything off it lol. I am happy with my purchase and it is perfect for day 1 beginners. Maybe in the long run will upgrade to something better if i have the money 😂

I actually got this shifter for free via Amazon Vine - was super shocked to see racing gear in the mix on that thing. I have a G920 with the truebrake mod, and it fit right in with that, albeit without console compat. Does the job as a gear shift, though obviously getting a look at the wheel and pedals I'm pretty "no thanks" about the complete set. Nice to get an explanation of where that shifter came from, though. I thought it was odd that someone took the time to make a same-price knockoff of the Logitech shifter.

I want to get this so bad as my local micro center has this on sale for only 100. But my desk seems to be too thick to clamp these on to

A very fair review for the "price" and "feature set".

That gearshifter is almost identical to the Logitech shifter 😂

can u change the shifter knob?

Got this for $99 on Christmas sale.

Micro Center is selling the V9 for $99. Likely because PXN is taking pre-orders for the $300+ V10. With the PXN V3 Pro/V3II priced at $95 and the Thrustmaster T80 at $85 on Amazon, the V9 is a no brainer IMO at $100.

Is the gaming steering similar to real life steering in turns of turning?

For the life of my I can't get vibration to work on PS4 (GT Sport). Can someone please help me with this?

I'm having an issue in assetto corsa, wheel is nee, but when I'm at about 40% brake or throttle sctual input, the game registers it as 100% already. Any tips?

I cant get the vibration to work in xbox

HELP LEASE. I’m having a problem with this wheel and my Xbox. Hope you can help. It keeps turn by my screen black while the game is loading. Do you have any suggestions on how to fix this. My Xbox has an only a year old.

where do u guys buy it from almost every where i look for it's sold for just $100 every reviewer i seen so far had bought it for $200 of close to that

♥️

Kind of tempting because the ability to use on multiple consoles, I know its not listed but does it work on the Xbox 360 as well? Lots of racers I love on that system so that would be a great bonus!

Be good for ATS, FH 4 & 5 games. I am thinking I should buy one for my gaming laptop

Considering this is compatible with even Switch, i guess is not a horrible choice as a wheel for Mario kart.

How does it compare to the DFGT

hello, first of all nice video, nice review, do you advise me to buy it?

biggest thinks it's doesn't have force feedback, being newcomer at sim racing and never know what feels force feedback things is stressfull, maybe gona save more money again

I'm poor so this might be my bday present. I drive manual in everything so that's really important to me . I moss my Logitech

Low on money, this is a place to start........

Good review. Good job on putting the wheel on a real rig. Others put it on a wobbly desk or table then complain about it even more. I'm sure it's a better experience on a cockpit rather than a desk and office chair. I understand most would probably do it that way but rigs today costs very cheap or you can just make one and have some fun. Maybe more fun than those sim snobs constantly chasing the dragon.

Does anyone know if it works on Xbox 360?

I️ just bought a g920 with pedals and shifter for 180 + ship

Okay, so I have few questions. Hopefully somebody will see this and be able to answer. First, does anybody have an official list of games this works with, specifically Switch games? If not, what are some of the titles that you've tested and what system did you test them on? Second, does the controller pass through for Xbox and Playstation have to be the official controllers or can they 3rd party? Specifically, can they be 3rd party wired controllers? Third, I heard this doesn't work natively with PS5 but I also heard it does work with PS5 if you're using a PS4 controller in the pass through when you connect the wheel to PS5. Can anybody confirm this? Thanks in advance!

does it work with BEAMNG?

I bought it for 117€ was it worth?

you said its compatible with playstation, but only the ps4 or also ps5

I only have one usb hole in my ps5 does it have more than one usb to connect?

hey why does my comment get removed all the time

My dream is buying this but I can’t 😢😢😢😢😢😢

“You’re hardware doesn’t matter, it’s all about what you’re use to” 💀

100$ at microcenter now

$180 is overpriced. in my country it only cost $100 or $120

whats the game name

For an entry set ... I would save $ for 2-3 months, then go Thrustmaster, or bust. I started sim 3 months ago, got a Logi G29, returned it without opening it when I found a G923 new for not much more. That wheel was extremely "notchy/grainy", and I'd turn the wheel and it wouldn't return to center.🙄 Returned it and found a Thustmaster T300 for $70 more. Excellent FFB. And I've been enjoying ever since...until I can upgrade to a CSL DD.

dude you're hands is so big

Ouch this wheel just hast a rubberband, it cost the same as a g920/g29/tmx/t150 which all have real forcefeedback. why would any1 buy this?

no FF is fail for sim rcing..bottom line, tried this wheel and i\t was utter garbage, sat way to high on desk, the clamp hangs down way too far and and and..for an extra 50-75$ get a TM
