// Editorial verdict

The Thrustmaster T598 Servo Base is one of the more important products in the current Thrustmaster range because it makes direct drive more accessible on PlayStation and PC. Its Direct Axial Drive motor, 5 Nm constant torque, low latency, and integrated Race Dash give it a more modern feel than the brand’s hybrid wheel bases. It is not a high-torque enthusiast monster, but it looks like a smart and flexible mid-range base for drivers who want cleaner force feedback and a clear ecosystem upgrade path.

Strengths

  • ·Direct Axial Drive motor with no cogging
  • ·5 Nm constant torque with overshoot capability
  • ·Integrated Race Dash display for settings and telemetry
  • ·Broad compatibility with Thrustmaster wheel add-ons
  • ·Strong entry point into console-compatible direct drive

Weaknesses

  • ·Torque is modest compared with stronger direct drive bases
  • ·Desk mount may be sold separately depending on configuration
  • ·Best value is stronger if you plan to stay in the Thrustmaster ecosystem
  • ·Display visibility can depend on wheel and seating setup
