F1 24 Logitech Settings: G29, G923, G PRO & the Centre Spring Split

I’m a sim racer and amateur racer with a passion for Motorsport, good racecraft and the technical and setup aspect of sim racing.

If you’re driving F1 24 on a Logitech wheel, your single most important setting is one you can’t see on most setup guides because it’s split between two completely different categories of wheel. The Centre Spring slider in F1 24’s in-game options should be turned UP to 20-30% on the G29, G920 and G923, and turned OFF entirely on the G PRO and RS50. Same brand, same slider, opposite calls. The reason isn’t arbitrary – it traces directly back to mechanical hardware differences that the in-game slider is trying to compensate for. Get this right and the wheel feels properly connected through F1 24’s tight chicanes. Get it wrong and either the wheel feels lifeless and slow to centre (gear/belt with Centre Spring off) or robotically vibrating on straights (DD with Centre Spring on).

G HUB setup

G29, G920 and G923 are gear or belt drive at 2-2.5Nm peak. They have a real mechanical centre slack – the gears themselves don’t centre instantly without help. The G PRO at 11Nm and RS50 at 8Nm are direct drive with zero mechanical slack. The wheels return to centre because the motor is actively driving them there in real time.

Setting	G29 / G920	G923	RS50 (8Nm DD)	G PRO (11Nm DD)
Operating Range	900°	900°	900°	900°
Centring Spring (G HUB)	Off	Off	n/a	n/a
Strength / Torque	n/a	n/a	8 Nm	11 Nm
FFB Filter	n/a	n/a	Auto / 2	Auto / 2
Dampener	n/a	n/a	5	5
TrueForce	n/a	15	15	15

Centring Spring stays OFF in G HUB for the G29/G920/G923 because the in-game Centre Spring is the one you want active – G HUB’s would just double-count it. TrueForce at 15 is a meaningful F1 24 call: higher values introduce engine vibrations that drown the steering signal, lower values mean you can’t feel ABS triggering or the kerbs at Monza properly. 15 is the goldilocks.

The Centre Spring split, explained properly

This is the one F1 24 setting nobody seems to explain coherently across guides, so it’s worth the proper paragraph.

The G29, G920 and G923 are gear or belt drive. There’s a small but real amount of mechanical slop at centre – if you let go of the wheel, it doesn’t snap perfectly back to dead centre on its own. The motor has to drive it back through gear teeth, and gear teeth have backlash. Through F1 24’s tight chicane sequences (the Senna esses at Interlagos, the Casino at Monaco), that mechanical lag becomes a real problem – you finish your input but the wheel takes a beat to centre, and the next turn-in feels slow. The in-game Centre Spring at 20-30% adds an active centering force that bridges this gap. Wheel returns faster, chicane inputs feel sharper, the car responds to your hands instead of to the gears.

The G PRO and RS50 are direct drive. No gears, no belt, no slack. The motor IS the centring mechanism, and it’s doing that work continuously and accurately. Adding an in-game Centre Spring on top creates an artificial second centring force that fights the motor’s own real-time control – the result is a robotic vibration around centre on straights, exactly the symptom that makes Centre Spring above 0 a permanent off-switch for any DD base.

Same brand. Same slider in the same game menu. Opposite call depending on which Logitech you’ve got. This is why F1 24 setup guides that say “just turn Centre Spring off, it’s old advice” are wrong for half the Logitech installed base.

Common Logitech + F1 24 mistakes

Centre Spring OFF on G29/G920/G923. Wheel feels slow to centre through chicanes. 20-30% in-game.
Centre Spring ON 20+ on the G PRO or RS50. Robotic centre vibration on straights. Off for both DDs.
Centring Spring ticked in G HUB. Don’t stack G HUB’s Centring Spring with the in-game Centre Spring. G HUB OFF, let F1 24 manage it.
Understeer Enhance ticked. Gamepad assist. Off on any wheel.
TrueForce at 100 on the G PRO. Engine vibrations drown the steering signal. 15 is the right balance.

Same Centre Spring split applies in F1 23 and F1 25 – EGO engine consistency across the generation. The multi-brand F1 24 matrix is F1 24 wheel settings, the G923 iRacing deep-dive is here, and the wider Logitech context is in our direct drive wheel buyer’s guide.
