Thrustmaster does not publish an official newton-metre rating for the T500 in the source material used for this collection. We will not estimate one from community measurements or compare unlike motor figures. With no manufacturer-published Nm value, SIMGASM classifies the T500 conservatively in the Hobby tier.
The SIMGASM Hobby provides a fixed aluminium-profile platform for this older wheelbase and leaves room to set a repeatable driving position. The recommendation does not imply that the T500 produces 16 Nm; it simply uses the lowest suitable class when an official rating is unavailable.
Legacy hardware often remains in service through several cockpit upgrades. The Club, Sport and Pro are all compatible stronger choices. Club is sensible when the T500 will be used at its highest settings for long sessions, when braking loads are substantial, or when a direct-drive replacement is planned. Stepping up one tier supplies long-term structural margin and is our guaranteed 100% flex-free platform recommendation for maximum-setting use.
Age makes verification especially important. Identify the exact T500 or T500 RS base, consult its original mounting drawing and confirm the underside hole spacing, thread specification and safe bolt depth. Compare those measurements with the selected SIMGASM wheel-mount page rather than relying on a desk clamp or on compatibility with a newer Thrustmaster model. Also check housing and cable clearance before choosing the final wheel angle.
This collection gives a supported starting point without pretending the missing torque figure is known, while keeping Club, Sport and Pro open for a later hardware change.
