What drivers keep saying · from 17 reviews

Bought a ClubSport DD+ to compare with their G Pro and returned it: firmware updates were confusing and they got frequent mis-shifts.

negativebad software

Switched from the G Pro to a DD+ for GT7, but ACC on PS5 now has no feel at all because it doesn't support Full Force.

negative

Their DD+ served them well at high torque without the clipping they had on lower-torque bases.

positivestrong force feedback

Replaced the rest of their Fanatec gear with Simagic but kept the ClubSport DD+ because they have no complaints about it.

positive

Runs a DD+ and a Simucube 2 Sport and uses the DD+ more: it's easier to dial in the feel they want through settings.

positivegood software

Loves their DD+ on a PS5 Pro rig for GT7 in VR.

positiveconsole compatible

Really likes their ClubSport DD+ 18 Nm: it works with every sim without fiddling with settings, though the ecosystem limits wheel choice.

positive

Their ClubSport DD+ lost connection every half hour on firmware 457 until they rolled the base back to 455; beta patches didn't help.

negativebad software

Loves their DD+ even more than their Alpha Ultimate, finding it much more responsive.

positive

Moved from the CSL DD to the DD+ after a year and doesn't regret it: on some car and track combos it's night and day for avoiding clipping and feeling road texture.

positivestrong force feedbackdetailed force feedback

Upgraded from a CSL DD Pro to the DD+ and calls it a solid base; runs a GT Neo on it via SRM emulator with no issues.

positive

Owns both a ClubSport DD+ 15 Nm and an Alpha EVO Pro: the DD+ has better detail mid-corner at the limit, especially in iRacing, but a firmware update bricked it.

mixeddetailed force feedbackbad software

Has had a DD+ for half a year and is very happy; it performs great in all sims.

positive

Had the DD+ and liked it, but it isn't friendly to third-party wheels needing USB passthrough.

mixed

Their ClubSport DD+ reads a wrong position as home and calibration doesn't fix it, even after updating.

negativebad software

Their DD+ occasionally pulls to one side and stays there until power-cycled.

negative

Owns a CS DD+ and a CSL DD 8 Nm: the DD+ is stronger and feels a bit nicer, but it's not a game changer.

mixedstrong force feedback

Bought a DD+ two weeks ago: setting up firmware is archaic and most sessions in F1 25 on PC have needed a power-cycle or app restart.

negativebad software

Likes that the DD+ lets them use Simnet pedals on console, but its drivers are so unreliable they stay on 15 Nm firmware so their other Fanatec gear keeps working.

mixedbad softwareconsole compatible

Replaced a CSL DD with the CS DD+ and it works great in ACC, AC EVO and LMU, but force feedback shuts off in Project Cars 2.

mixed

Had a ClubSport DD+ 18 Nm and preferred it slightly over a friend's Alpha EVO Pro.

positive

On Xbox Series X, their DD+ with Universal Hub randomly switches to PS mode mid-game in EA WRC 24.

negative

Is very happy with the ClubSport DD+ they moved to after returning a Simucube, and sees it as their end-game base.

positive

Upgraded from the CSL DD to the DD+ and finds it a more powerful, smoother and faster CSL DD that keeps Fanatec's signature force feedback.

positivestrong force feedback

Has never had a problem with their Fanatec DD+ and loves it; likes its force feedback far more than the Moza R21 they had before.

positivedetailed force feedback

Moving from a CSL DD 8 Nm to the 15 Nm ClubSport DD+ brought more detail.

positivedetailed force feedback

Went from GT DD Pro 8 Nm to ClubSport DD+ and was at first disappointed how similar it felt, but has come to appreciate the same feel with more power.

mixed

Went from a GT DD Pro with 8 Nm boost to the ClubSport DD+ and found it night and day.

positive

Moved from a Fanatec CSL to the ClubSport DD+ and found it made a nice difference, though it's overpowered for them and they run it at 60%.

positivestrong force feedback

Just upgraded from a Logitech G923 to the Fanatec ClubSport DD+ and loves it.

positive

Swapped a clipping CSL DD 8 Nm for the ClubSport DD+ and calls it a fantastic wheelbase with 18 Nm holding force, usually run at about 50%.

positive

Moved from a T598 to the Fanatec ClubSport DD+ F1 bundle and calls it the best decision they made; the force feedback was so good it pushed them to move to PC.

positivedetailed force feedback

After a T300 and then a T-GT II, upgraded to the ClubSport DD+ in December 2024 and has used it since; calls the jump to direct drive borderline transcendental.
