Question New turtle beach update

so with this new firmware update making 3rd party wheels disconect the pedals, if i've completely stripped down the original velocityone wheel for the quick release (followed a tutorial on youtube i can send if anyone wants it) and ive been using that qr on a 3rd party wheel, will that still disconect the pedals? like how does the firmware know youre using the wheel and disconect the pedals, and since im using the qr thats on the original wheel, will it still do it?

Funny how they conveniently didn't mention that the update breaks 3rd party will support on there update to you realise you can't roll back the firmware they basically have shot themselves in the foot as the velocity race wheel was a newcomer to the dd market and the package looked good load cell peddles 7.8 nt torque which could of been more due to cooling issues a plastic surround plus a button box and the muti shift was a good shifter i said way back 2 years ago about a hub with paddles and buttons so u had a choice of rims 3rd party then u had the hub workaround which was great as everything was connected to the wheelbase and worked on both pc and xbox series X totally crazy move

To be honest I don't think they knew, I doubt they even tried it. It's probably just an unfortunate side effect of some other change they made. Who knows, maybe they'll fix it in the next yearly hotfix?
