Both of these racing wheels are still great options for racing Assetto Corsa Competizione with in 2023. Thrustmaster Control Panel settings: The Maat vape tank can hold up to 2ml of e-liquid and is easy to refill thanks to a top fill design. The leakproof design means you won’t lose any e-liquid either, it also stops the build-up of condensation for improved flavour. A fully adjustable airflow lets you switch between a tight or loose inhale. The TPP coils all feature a mesh build for increased vapour production and they heat more e-liquid at a faster rate for an even better flavour. When it comes to e-liquid we recommend 70% VG e-liquid or a higher VG option. This device is not for beginners, saying that it fits my style of vaping great, it is very comfortable in my hand. The only cons I have are that the tank produces some weird sounds and the screen timeout restart! Would I recommend the Voopoo Argus GT II Kit? On the flip side of the wheel are two plastic shifters. These don’t quite feel as positive to use as the magnetic shifters on other Fanatec steering wheels. And the rubberised hand grip doesn’t quite feel as nice as the grip on the T-GT II. Popular sim racing brand MOZA Racing does have some mid-range racing wheels which would be perfect for this comparison. However, none of MOZA’s current racing wheels are PS5 compatible.

Or via the Thrustmaster Control Panel on PC. Use our recommended settings below for your wheel. The compatibility of both products is a relatively easy category to judge. The Thrustmaster T-GT II is compatible with PC, PS4 and PS5. It’s also compatible with a range of steering wheel and pedal options. The Fanatec GT DD Pro goes one better and is compatible with PC, PS4, PS5 and it is also Xbox Ready. This means, that if you connect an Xbox-compatible steering wheel to the GT DD Pro, it will also work on Xbox consoles.

The direct drive wheel base gives Fanatec a huge advantage that outperforms the Thrustmaster T-GT II. And the sheer number of upgrade options makes the Fanatec ecosystem more appealing than Thrustmaster’s currently. Voopoo sent me a standard sample of the kit so my review is based on this, the colour sent they call Lime Green. The kit comes in a really nice tin box that has been moulded with several motifs! Next up, I want to look at the quality of the steering wheels that are included in these bundles. Both companies offer a Gran Turismo licensed steering wheel. Thrustmaster’s license agreement is older than Fanatec’s as the T-GT II was released before the Fanatec wheel.

This is a belt-driven racing wheel which also carries Gran Turismo badges as part of an older partnership.

So How Does the Voopoo Argus GT II Kit Perform?

This is a fairly good tank, I am impressed with the flavour and vapour production I get from it. I’ve never seen an airflow operated with a slider before so I give credit to Voopoo for coming up with something new, at least to me! This wheel base is as serious as things get when racing with a Thrustmaster wheel. And it’s designed to give a premium experience when racing sim racing titles such as Assetto Corsa Competizione.
