THRUSTMASTER T3PA DIY LOAD CELL MOD, CHEAP MOD UNDER £25 FOR CONSOLE AND PC 

Awesome.. Takes a bit of getting used to but definitely worth it.. Hope it goes well mate.

@@RobbofpvGaming I just finished with the mod and I'm really happy with how it turned out: revolutionsimracing.com/threads/t3pa-loadcell-upgrade-diy-guide.1588/page-2

Awesome mate, I'll have a look now..

Fantastic mate, have you done any laps yet?

@@RobbofpvGaming I gone on shuto in assetto corsa for a quick run and i like it more than the standard conical mod already but I still need some time to adjust

Hi mate, I couldn't find any info on the HX711 amplifier so I stuck with the leo bodnar.

Hi mate, I've not had chance to put another link up yet but all you're looking for is a 20kg load cell. If I get chance later, I'll link another one.

thanks for the quick reply I found another one on ebay

@@peterwilliamson4957 that's great.. Good luck with it. 😉

Hi mate, I'm not sure to be honest but definitely worth doing some research..

@@RobbofpvGaming Hello, very fast response, great, what do you say, can we test? Do you have any way of knowing if it might work? Thanks

I'll look into it but I haven't got any logitech wheels to test it on.

Almost sure it will work as it will output the same signal as a potentiometer i guess.

Thanks mate.. I can't compare to the tlcm Pedals as I haven't tried them but I can confirm that, after a period of getting used to how hard you have to brake (as you would in real life) my braking consistency and technique has hugely improved. If you've ever thought "how can I shave off a few tenths here and few tenths there" it won't come straight away with this system but it definitely opens up options with braking techniques. As for the amplifier, I can't give you any kind of definitive answer with that I'm afraid.

ad623 board is an alternative

Hi mate, the rubber buffer is an M4, 10 x 10 here's the link to the one I used www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BUFFER-Rubber-Mount-Anti-Vibration-STOPS-Male-ALL-SIZE-M6-M8-M10-M12-M16-D-/223700384876?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292 I also got this spring after and cut it in half and seated it over the rubber buffer to make light braking a bit easier.. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/COMPRESSION-SPRING-Wire-Diameter-1-5mm-P-/114210854495?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292 it's the "P9" option and just needs cutting to length. Thanks for watching bud and good luck with it.

Awesome thank you so much, can't wait

Still works perfect mate, I use it for league races every week and can't imagine not having it now and yes, calibration is exactly the same, just apply what you want full pressure braking to be and you're calibrated.

@@RobbofpvGaming Thank you for reply! I am waiting Leo Bodnar amplifier comes and I will make it here. Maybe my lap times comes...

Yeah the rubber mount could be made better.. I ended up getting a spring with the same diameter and fitting it round the rubber mount to strengthen it and give me some low pressure braking..

Amazon or eBay will probably be your best bet.

Aahh good stuff mate, glad you got there in the end.. I do remember seeing variations of wiring when I was researching.. Glad nothings damaged.

@Peter Williamson hey what are you using for this upgrade? i have hx711 board and t3pa pedals

@@BorisSchmidt you need the Leo Barnard centre sensor as well

Did you hook it up through the leo bodnar amplifier?

@@RobbofpvGaming no I wired it up just as you did in the video by the way it was a 2 S balance leads I do fbv as well

Sorry to be a pest but if you could let me know what loadcell you ordered I will try and find it on the internet maybe this one just doesn't work thanks alot

I didn't use the HX711 board, I used the leo bodnar amplifier that's listed in the description.. I'll find the same load cell now mate.

like a 20 k is what most are 20k is not much to push with your leg

I can't answer for sure mate but the thrustmaster Pedals are plastic too. Only advise I can give, is avoid spraying any wd40 on spueaky Pedals as it makes the plastic brittle and more likely to break.

It works brilliant mate, it took me a couple of races to get used to it but my braking is much more consistent now. I need to do a follow up video really but it allows you to brake a bit later and rotate the car towards the apex better while trail braking.. I'd definitely recommend it mate.

Hi mate. You might be able to source the right cables with the right plugs but as this was the first one of these I had done, I made my own to make sure the wiring was in the right order.

I'm not sure if I'm honest mate, a bit of research might help you but I just used what was recommended.

@@RobbofpvGaming thanks anyway man! The things i hear is that it should be done with the Leo, will cost me around 60 for that alone.. 😅

@@Nickinatorz nightmare mate, I take it you're not in Europe..? Shipping costs are a nightmare.. Why can't everything be done by amazon.. 😂

@@RobbofpvGaming no im in Europe which makes it even worse! Fucking taxes haha

That is correct mate. What I've done since making this video is cut a spring to fit behind the pedal and around the rubber stopper so I get light pressure on the brakes when needed and still get full pressure when needed. Hope that made sense.

@@RobbofpvGaming Is that stopper part of the kit? Or can you mount any sort of stopper, would it be better to just have a bigger slightly softer one that touches the pedal when at 0% braking?

Hi mate, nothing needs programming at all, everything is literally just plug and play.

It does take a bit of getting used to but once you've practiced a bit, the muscle memory makes your braking much more consistent.

Thanks man bit the bullet and ordered everything

Swap green/white wire coming from load cell wiring.

I don't need it anymore... I've got fanatec now 😅

@@mv_simracing (t3pm+LC mod=CSL lite) I did my t3pas ad623 LC mod for $10 (excluding the solder cost). I don't use the phrase "night and day difference" often. You can never go back to non-LC input though, be warned. It's like power steering vs having no power steering pump. (And correction: if amp gets hot, then 3.3v (black) and ground (red) Fanatec wiring😖 needs to be switched on the board. If you never get pedal input either green/white from load cell needs to be switched and/or the potentiometer screw needs to be adjusted on the ad623 board)

Yes, I use this on ps4.

@@RobbofpvGaming does the ps4 reads it as a mechanical mod or computerized mod ? I’m about to get a t300 rs gt with the t3pa pedal gt edition and thinking about getting this done but I’m on ps4

@@Amolakms95 how did you go what did you get?

Probably not a good idea for the throttle, these work off pressure so there's barely any movement on the pedal where as the throttle requires more resolution in movement for control.

@@RobbofpvGaming i tried this mod and i am not sure if i had the load cell wired right to the amp,also to the pedal pc board

@@MrBobchiz1 does it work at all? You have to brake with quite a lot of force.

@@RobbofpvGaming no not at all.I think the color code in the peddles is what's messing with me.

No problems at all mate, been using mine weekly for about a year now and all works perfectly.

@@RobbofpvGaming that's good to hear. I've just ordered the parts you linked. I've done the magnetic shifter paddles mod where you remove the spring's inside and it give it a nice strong chunky feel with the magnets I used. I can send a like if you want to do it

@@iceman1st1 that's not something I've looked into much but yeah, I'll check it out.. Thanks man. 😉 👊
