Fanatec CSR wheel feeling / general wheel feeling?

[Fatty McGassy]

I have a fanatec CSR wheel that I have used for a while in Forza, Iracing, and now Assetto Corsa, but the thing is it just doesn't feel right.

When you use a wheel should it feel realistic or should it feel airy?

I try everyones setting I find online and it just never feels right...I'm never able to correct a loss of traction and it all comes so sudden. It seems like everyone loves the KTM Crossbow, but I take a turn and I immediately lose traction and it's hello wall from there.

I use to like 100% damper, but when I lose traction it's impossible to turn the wheel in time. I just feel like something is wrong with my wheel or I'm just not understanding it correctly.

Can someone explain or is there a video of them driving with a wheel explaining every feeling they should get from the track when driving?

update firmware on your wheel, i also found the other day i just bought a 144hz 1ms monitor and it made a huge dfferrence in input lag

I have the latest driver and firmware and I use a 2ms lagless monitor.

I also have the FFB down enough to prevent clipping, but I just feel like the wheel isn't communicating enough with me or know exactly how. I feel like it should be common sense ie. this vibration means this and that...I just wish someone could make a video break down of it. Maybe I'm just a bad driver.

Also I hate how you can't adjust the wheel settings while in practice etc.

I don't have or have used a CSR but I do have a Fanatec GT2, which i'm assuming is similar?

I find the FFB in AC to be very good, I can feel the kerbs, bumps and camber on the track. I do sometimes add 1 or 2 to the drift setting directly on the wheel, to make it feel a little more responsive to correct- but other than that the wheel settings remain at 100 and default.

Have you tried installing Fanaleds? For me it makes the wheel feel different in AC- maybe you'd prefer the FFB from it or it might affect the CSR differently, but give it a try and load up AC and see if it does anything for you.
