Yep In!!

 

[Noel Spence]

Which car? We are driving the P2

hey tony it was the pedals ,i put the fanatecs back on ,and bang full throttle ,what is the best way to totally get rid of the fanatec driver , i think it is playing up with the installation of the new ones ,otherwise i got to send them back ,pain

 

[Tony]

That just sounds like calibration surely noel?
What are the new pedals?

Dont forget you can set the top deadzone if you cant get full throttle

 

[Tony]

Oh i just saw you are getting fluctuation of your new pedals, I know jamie had same issue and had to use Xtra grounding wires on the pedals due to the EMI given off by the DD wheel. But that was seen quite easily even in the calibration tool, they would jump all over the place.

In game i always set my throttle upper dead zone to 90% just in case the pedals are not perfect this allows earlier full throttle

 

[Noel Spence]

ah ha i will try that ,and yes the calibration screen is going berko when calibrating, i do not want to send them back ,that would be a pain

what pedals?, definitely a grounding wire required on pedals, Jamie's was exactly the same

 

[Noel Spence]

simworx pedals just tried to earth them through the earth pin on a power point ,no go yet definitely the problem though

 

[Noel Spence]

how did jamie earth them

 

[Jamie]

how did jamie earth them

They supplied an earth cable Noel.

 

[ConstantineP]

Is it for 29/4 as the title says? If yes, sign me up

Yes @ConstantineP it is definitely 29/4. Please note we are an Australian server so please check the GMT time for reference.

what does it connect to jamie

 

[millen]

Should just need something else metal Noel.
Can you link it to a screw on the back of your PC case perhaps? If it's close enough.

You could maybe even try some of these on your pedal USB cable... ?

I have a few on my OSW build.

Luckily haven't had any issues with my HPP pedals. But I think that's because the board for it is in a little metal box on the pedals. So it's kind of shielded already.

 

[Jamie]

Noel here is the HE solution. This is what I did. It also explains the issue of EMI with DD wheels.

ok tony i think this will be my solution https://community.granitedevices.com/t/emi-interferance-after-simntronix-encoder-install-help/1179/2 i can still race in the meantime if i pull out the power cable to the motor ,but hey no ffb ,boring
