Thrustmaster T3PA-PRO Add-On (XB1 / PS4 / PS3 / PC)

Product Information

This provides a big advantage in racing, since victory so often depends on the brake pedal’s performance. Drawing on its know-how and technological expertise, Thrustmaster develops products—flight simulation peripherals, headsets, and controllers—designed to offer extremely accurate gameplay, providing a completely immersive experience with optimal realism across numerous platforms. By installing the brake mod, you completely transform how these pedals feel, and really increase the overall immersion.

This introduces progressive braking, and can be configured in a range of configurations to adjust the progression rate.

Overall, the conical brake mod does transform this pedal set to put it up there alongside loadcell pedal kits from other manufacturers. Thrustmaster have reworked the plastic base to include a nicer, more subtle grip design, which also adds to the increased aesthetic quality. We would highly recommend picking up a set of these pedals if you are configuring a Thrustmaster setup. Although, if you purchase the T3PA-Pros and then sell on the T500RS pedals to cover some of the cost, then that could be worth it. If you’re considering picking a set up, also check out our comparison between the T3PA Pro and Fanatec CSL Elite.Unlike other pedals which utilize cheap load cells originally designed for use in a postal scale, the load cell in the LC3 upgrade kit is a medical-grade load cell designed to withstand much higher loads at faster response times.

These pedals are fully compatible with all modern Thrustmaster wheel bases, and represent a considerable upgrade for all sets that don’t already come with the T3PA.This allows you to run a closer brake and throttle pedal for heel and toe downshifting, if that’s your style.

We tested this in all four configurations, and preferred the longer brake travel, with a medium increase to resistance. Installation requires the metal bracket and mounting screw from the original "conical brake mod" that ships with the pedals. You can adjust the spacing between each pedal by mounting the pedal plate in one of three locations.We would say that almost any two pedal setup isn’t ideal, but this jump from the two pedals to the three feels rather more significant. The T3PA pedals include a factory supplied "conical brake mod" which is intended to feel just like a load cell. Therefore, any additional force on the pedal directly translates into a proportional amount of braking applied in the game. Overall, when compared to the two pedal set, the T3PA pedals do ooze a much more professional quality. They are built entirely out of metal and are far more customizable with both F1 and GT pedal setups.
