FFB Settings for Fanatec CSL Elite

This guide provides users with Fanatec CSL Elite wheel bases a place to start when tuning their Force Feedback settings for BeamNG Drive.

Introduction

Hello fellow drivers and sim enthusiasts!

After way too many hours of tuning, testing and re-tuning... I wanted to share what I think is a pretty acceptable profile for anyone else using the same wheel/ pedals as I am. I have a Fanatec CSL Elite wheelbase with CSL LC pedals, running the most up to date driver (as of this post). I am running BeamNG.Drive v25.5 (also of this post) and have tried multiple driving styles across different vehicle setups (including some mods). This will probably be very hyper-specific, but without further monologue, here are my settings.

Wheelbase Settings

Wheelbase Settings:
SEN: 1080

(*) Please refer to the WIKI/ Documentation section in reference to creating a correction curve for YOUR wheel. I used the iRacing WheelCheck.exe to generate my correction data. I recommend completing at least 3 tests and averaging the results of each for best result.

does the CSL steer like a wheel or like a keyboard like Forza 4?

[deepiain]

which mode are you running your wheel in? PC or PS4?
