CNRAQR PC USB Simulator Shifter 7+R H Gear Shifter with L Shape Clamp Set Gear shift PC Windows Steering Compatible with G29/G27/G25, T300RS/GT Wheel

Okay yeah this is great. No issues at all for me. It's USB-C on the base to USB-A on the PC. The supplied cord is probably 7' long - which is a couple feet longer than I needed so that's perfect.I am using it in iRacing right now. Have not tried it on many games. It says you can set it up through steam. Will have to try that for Assetto Corsa because AC did not natively detect it through Content Manager. Rennsport however run through epic automatically detected it. Will update this review once I test it properly on steam but for now - 5 stars. Worth noting, iRacing will not let you use H-Shifter on cars that don't have an H-Shifter (you can still use sequential) but there were cars I wanted to use H and cannot. Not an issue with this device, just iRacing will not let you use it on cars that don't have h-shift ability - and that's a lot of cars on iRacing.Feels sturdy. I think I would have preferred 6-speed with R but 7-speed is okay too. Makes shifting into 3rd, 4th slightly more difficult and 5th much more difficult. Again not an issue with the product just the way 7-speed manual works.Oh and it's got a ball and a stick option. All metal. Very solid

Its actually pretty great for a budget shifter it works well.

This is a review of the CNRAQR 7+R H-pattern Gear Shifter with Clamp. I bought this because one of the youtube reviewers stated that it could be used as both an H-pattern shifter and a sequential. While I was never able to get the sequential mode to work reliably, the build quality, feel, and reliability of the H-pattern mode convinced me to replace my thrustmaster TH8S. I've been using it for 2 months and haven't had any issues other than the sequential mode not being reliable. So if you are looking for an H-pattern shifter, at a really reasonable price, I can highly recommend this one. But if you are looking to switch back and forth between H-pattern and sequential, you may want to look elsewhere. The Clamp is better than you would expect. If you clamp it to a table, the table will move before the clamp does. Very secure.

Received defective.6th gear and reverse do not register with Windows or any games, verified on two PC’s.Reverse has no lockout, and gears feel very cheap. Very mechanical clank, no gates preventing mis-shifting between gears.Overall low quality, non-realistic shifter. Would not recommend.

The good:It is independent USB controller so you aren't stuck using paddle shifters from your wheel in a tractor trailer.It is very stout and clunky which I like, the thing is built like a tank.I have had no issues with the centering force, it goes back to neutral center well.HAL effect sensors and a magnet is embedded in the shifter shaft, I would watch the magnet to make sure it doesn't move, however, it seems very secure.It uses two roller bearings in a claw formation with a spring on the back of the claw when going into the gears top or bottom, the default spring is very tight (high level of tension), if your using it for Truck Sims (ATS/ETS2/Snow Runner/Expeditions) it's awesome, not so much for fast shifts on a racing sim, Not sure I would like it in Beam either, replacing the springs would help with faster shifts.I haven't noticed any metal on metal contact inside the mechanism, some type of insulation on the inside or outside of the container would likely tame most of the noise.Liked the shifter nob choices, the taller shift handle works better for ATS in my opinion, but I tried both.If I can get Windows to recognize it again I will spend some time on reducing the noise.The Bad:The method to make it a sequential shifter isn't great, however with a piece of thin plywood or sheet metal or a 3D printer you could fix this in minutes.Windows 11 is not currently recognizing it when I plug it in, it did the first time, after the first time I rebooted the PC it stopped working. I am still working this, I can see it has power, and windows sees the device just not as a game controller, I think its a driver issue, but its not looking good.As others reported its pretty loud during shifting, its a metal mechanism inside a metal box, so the clanki-ness echos off the inside of the metal container.Conclusion:The price isn't bad for what you get, but really depends on your intended use.It would be 1000% better if there was some level of insulation either inside or a cover around the metal case.Its a 5 star choice for Truck Sims, the clunkyness is awesome in this application.Its more of a 2/3 star choice for racing as it comes equipped.(A lighter set of springs included for changing this would again be a huge improvement.)This shifter is not a great choice for racing as it comes shipped, the mechanism is too slow and resistive to shifts to allow for racing style shifting (fast accurate shifts).Sequential shifting should come with a separate metal top plate for the pattern, which you could swap out, more expensive than the plastic gate that's included... but again it would make this 1000% better for that application.The mechanism for sequential shifting is OK, but could be way better, and with 5-10 minutes of tinkering you could make a much better solution, but the shifter retention mechanism would still slow shifting and make it clunky, which you don't want in rally/race games.

5 stars for what it is, obviously it don't compare to the real deal, but for the price it is amazing, a lil noisy, a lil cheap feeling, mostly noisy and also like not as tight, but with a couple of mods if would get very close to a moza or a fanatec one.

Came very fast. Perfect packaging. Works great! Excellent wuality

Excelent for price

Buena calidad

جيد

Overall is a loud clunky H pattern gear box. You can gate in from 1st to 4th gear with ease, but very easily miss gear the 5th and 6th gear. In Sequential shift mode it only works with down shift. Should have purchase the TH8S instead of this :/

Works perfectly on windows 11. Very solid feel. Great price I hope it has a long life

Fabrication artisanal plutôt bas de gamme. La 3 ieme vitesse et 4 vitesse ne son pas centrer precicisement avec le guide de vitesse , ce qui fais que les vitesses accroches. La sensation des passages de vitesse est correct mais sans plus . Ca fais le travail pour un shifter qui ce fixe au bureau.EDIT : Ne fonctionne déja plus 2mois plus tard et meme pas 10h d'utilisation
