@cmaster06 Hello! I'm running Drivehub but on a different config - Logitech G923 Xbox wheel on Xbox one, with a fanatec handbrake (handbrake not used for F1 though!)

Whilst there are the issues you reported at play for me as well, it doesn't seem to be the Drivehub at fault but rather support for the wheel that needs patching.

The first thing Drivehub support ask is whether you've updated firmware on both the wheel AND the Drivehub unit itself - have you tried this?

I echo the advice given to ensure the Drivehub and the Logitech wheel firmwares are updated via PC.Ultimately, you must remember that the Drivehub is unsupported as is the Fanatec handbrake (which can simply be left disconnected whilst playing).

What does crossflashing mean and how can i do it? i am willing to risk it :DCrossflashing is when you load a firmware designed for something else to either enable that functionality in a similar / or preferably identical piece of hardware.&nbsp;I strongly suggest that you do not even think about attempting it as all you are likely to end up with is a paperweight i.e. a bricked wheel.The wheels are different mechanically and electronically.&nbsp;

@HashbrownRolo Thanks for the response! I am using the DriveHub to change my wheel’s compatibility. I have a ps4 Thrustmaster T300 wheel that doesn’t have a recently updated firmware from Thrustmaster offered yet. My DriveHub is up to date on its firmware though. I think we are using our DriveHubs for different purposes, where I’m trying to port a ps4 wheel to an Xbox series s, versus you using an Xbox wheel with an additional attachment.

However, since the Xbox versions of the Thrustmaster wheel (TX) need updating, do you think I could update my ps4 T300 wheel with the new TX (Xbox) firmware?

@cmaster06 That is a very good question! I'm not sure if Thrustmaster would allow you to do that officially, and by forcing it via unofficial methods may invalidate your warranty - or even worse brick the wheel entirely.

I have tried using my wheel for cross compatibility using Drivehub before - a while back I used my Xbox wheel on PS4 for GT Sport so I know of the type of FFB you're expecting to get in F1 23.

When you power up the wheel & Drivehub and the light sequence starts on the Drivehub unit, does it read out your correct wheel model on the LCD screen? (For example, mine goes G-9-2-3 for my Logitech G923)

And also - I think there's a Thrustmaster problems thread on here - is your model one of the ones affected by problems when it is connected directly without the Drivehub in between?
