[Xbox] thrustmaster tx configuration problem

I have a configuration problem with the thrustmaster tx steering wheel for the Xbox console.
The game applies to the steering wheel progressive angles that I do not want. When you start to turn the wheels barely move and when you reach 50% of steering wheel rotation the wheels apply more and more movement. What I want is that the movement of the wheels is the same as that of the steering wheel, if I turn the steering wheel 30% that the wheels turn that, and if I turn the steering wheel 80% that the wheels turn 80% also.
I have tried many different calibrations, loading all the factory default settings for this steering wheel, applying changes to the dead zone and saturation but I can't get the wheels to turn the same as the steering wheel.
I request help, please.
Thank you.

    @y6wn1qbjpep6 Following up on this one. This wheel has been reported to the team on a few threads. They are aware of the issues reported. Have you completely reinstalled everything and hooked up the peripherals with a new setup and not just reset to the original settings?

  • Thank You for the following up.
    Yes, I have tried to uninstall and reinstall everything and I have discovered a small and annoying solution. I explain it step by step to make it easier to understand:
    1- I launch ea wrc with the steering wheel and gamepad connected.
    2- I disconnect the steering wheel from the xbox.
    3- I delete the steering wheel with the gamepad in the game.
    4- I exit the game completely.
    5- I launch the game again (no trace of the thrustmaste tx, as if it had never existed.
    6- I connect the steering wheel to the console and it appears as connected.
    7- I don't calibrate the steering wheel
    8- I modify the configuration of the game that I like (ffb strength, turning radius, etc.).
    So the non linearity of the thrustmaster and the spinning of the wheels disappears. Problem: When I turn off the console and turn it on again the problem comes back again because the use of this steering wheel is registered. So I have to do this every time I want to play, it's a pain but at least I can play something.
    Hopefully someone knows a much more practical solution.
    Thank you.
