[INSIGHT] Fanatec Brightness of FLAG LED

Hi,
Currently on Fanatec devices brightness of FLAG LED can’t be used with custom RGB colors due to a limitation of the Fanatec SDK. Only a bunch of colors are allowed (see the image below).

However, the full support of custom RGB LED colors of Fanatec FLAG LEDs and soon the BMW M4 GT3 Wheel input LEDs is already implemented in SLIMax Manager Pro but NOT yet released,


SLIMax Manager Pro uses the latest v4.05 SDK but I’m still waiting for a new Fanatec SDK and hope it will support brightness with custom colors before releasing this cool feature…
Cheers,

[Pedals Set MOD] G.Thrust-natec or G.Fan-master?

Hi,

you get bored with your (too good) HE PRO or Sim3Pedal !
need to feel the good old days…

or simply pacing like a caged lion (maybe sick of working from home! )?

okay, don’t worry, here’s some cool stuff for you!
go to your kitchen (i.e. garage)
and prepare the diner (i.e. make a hardcore pedals set mod).

first, rummage through getting some broken, not functioning, unreliable, soft like “caramel custard” (flanby) parts from your old G25/27, T3PA Pro, CSP V1/V2, CSL Elite,…

 

 

then do your magical mix!

adding some screws, nuts, washers, a bit of elbow grease as usual in DIY project!, also a bit of 3D printing and after some hard work, feel happy like a teen getting his first date and get a pretty decent pedals set:

okay now the big challenge!
try to get a T.RJ12 USB adapter….

damn’! out of stock worldwide…

anyway, if you can’t find it use the big USB adapter provided with your T3PA Pro:

(no error here, the dust on it is also part of the adapter! keep it to increase reliability)

That’s it!

😉

Cheers,
z
