Best load-cell pedals for a MOZA R5 (UK): what plugs in, what works on Xbox

By Brake Marker UK Editorial · Published

The best load-cell upgrade for a MOZA R5 is the SRP2 (£139, or £184.90 with the £45.90 clutch) on PC, or the CRP2 (£359, or £458 with the £99 clutch) if you play on Xbox with the ESX wheel. UK prices from MOZA UK as of 1 Nov 2026. MOZA UK doesn't sell a three-pedal set of either, so the totals with the clutch are our own sums.

First: the R5 bundle's brake isn't a load cell

MOZA lists the SR-P Lite2 pedals in the R5 Pro bundle (£389) with a "Contactless Hall Sensor" (R5 Pro bundle). A Hall sensor measures how far the pedal moves. A load cell measures how hard you press it. That's the point of the upgrade: with a load-cell brake, you brake by pressure on the pedal rather than by how far it travels.

You may see a MOZA brake performance kit suggested as a fix. It isn't a load cell. The SRP Lite2 Brake Performance Kit is £39 (as of 1 Nov 2026). It makes the pedal stiffer, but it doesn't change what the pedal measures.

You may also see the original MOZA CRP recommended as a cheaper load-cell option. It's discontinued: MOZA's compatibility chart lists it as "CRP Pedals (EOL)", meaning end of life (chart), and its MOZA UK product page has been taken down. The CRP2 replaces it.

Three ways to connect pedals to an R5

How a set connects decides what it can do.

1. Through the R5 base

MOZA pedals can plug into the R5's pedal port, and this is the only route to Xbox. MOZA's Xbox FAQ says peripherals "can obtain Xbox certification support by directly connecting to the base" (Xbox FAQ).

Among load-cell sets, MOZA documents the base route for the CRP2, including on Xbox: "When using the Xbox-compatible ESX steering wheel, simply connect the CRP2 pedals directly to the base to set up the entire system for Xbox. The CRP2 pedals can also be connected directly to a PC or to the base." (CRP2)

The SRP2 can use the base too. MOZA's support page only lists "USB direct connection" (SRP2 support), but the official SRP2 manual says: "If your wheelbase has a pedal port, you can also connect to the wheelbase using an RJ45 cable", and "Only connect the pedals to one device at a time, PC or wheelbase" (SRP2 manual, linked from MOZA support). The UK shop's page title says "PC & Xbox", but MOZA's support pages, chart and manual don't mention Xbox, so we don't count it.

2. USB to your PC

Both MOZA load-cell sets can also go straight to a PC by USB, and every other set here connects only this way. USB pedals show up in your game as a separate device. That works on PC with an R5 as long as the game accepts more than one controller. Thrustmaster, for example, says the T-LCM is "Compatible with PC (via USB) with all racing wheels on the market" (T-LCM).

USB won't get you onto Xbox. MOZA's Wheel Base FAQ says "you can't directly connect products from different companies to each other" (Wheel Base FAQs), so third-party pedals can't reach Xbox through an R5.

3. A conversion kit for the pedals you have

Third-party kits replace the SR-P Lite2's brake sensor with a load cell. We found no UK seller. The one we found, from EU-based Alien Mods, costs €59.99–€67.99 and ships to the UK.

The bigger issue is the warranty. MOZA covers the pedals' main body for 12 months, but only for original, unmodified products, and its UK warranty doesn't cover unauthorised modifications (MOZA UK warranty). A third-party load-cell kit is a modification MOZA's pedal warranty doesn't cover. It's the cheapest route, but for that reason we don't recommend one.

Comparison: how each set works with an R5

Maker prices as of 1 Nov 2026; retailer prices checked 31 Oct 2026. Load-cell figures are each maker's published rating.

On kilograms: the figure is the load cell's rated range, not how hard you'll actually press. Heusinkveld makes this clearest: its Sprint has a 120 kg load cell but lists 65 kg as the maximum actual braking force.

Best picks by budget (UK)

Around £120–£200

MOZA SRP2: £139 (main pick for PC). The SRP2 pairs a 0–100 kg load cell with a 15-bit angle sensor. MOZA says "the angle sensor covers initial pedal travel while the load cell handles later travel" (SRP2 support). It's the cheapest way to stay with MOZA, and it runs by USB to the PC or by RJ45 into the R5's pedal port. The catch: MOZA doesn't document Xbox support for it. Add-ons are sold separately: a clutch (£45.90), a rear support bracket (£29) and a Brake Performance Kit (£19.90). With the clutch it comes to £184.90. View at MOZA UK

Logitech RS Pedals: £119.99. The cheapest load-cell set here, with a 75 kg brake and a Hall-sensor throttle. Logitech's setup guide asks for "an available USB port on your PC" and says most PC titles accept the pedals "when working as their own USB device", so you don't need a Logitech wheel. On PC, Logitech's G HUB handles brake force and curves. It's a two-pedal set, and the RS Clutch Module costs £34.99 extra. On consoles, they only work through a Logitech wheel, so they won't help an R5 on Xbox. View at Logitech G UK

Thrustmaster Raceline Pedals III LC: £179.99–£189. A three-pedal set with a load cell rated up to 100 kg at 24-bit resolution (Thrustmaster). With an R5 on PC, you plug it in by USB and set it up in My Thrustmaster Panel, which adjusts each pedal's travel, dead zones and response curves (Thrustmaster support). If you read that the gas and clutch can't be calibrated, that limit applies only to Raceline LC Tools when the pedals are plugged into a Thrustmaster base. Don't confuse it with the non-LC Raceline Pedals III (about £110). View at Thrustmaster UK

Thrustmaster T-LCM: £199.99. Thrustmaster rates the brake at "up to 220 lb / 100 kg" and uses its H.E.A.R.T. Hall sensors on the throttle and clutch (T-LCM). For PC it recommends "direct connection to the PC's USB port… for optimal resolution", and it works alongside non-Thrustmaster bases on PC (Thrustmaster KB). On Xbox, it only connects to a Thrustmaster base by RJ12, so it won't work with an R5 on Xbox. Currys lists it at £229, but it was out of stock on 31 Oct 2026. View at Thrustmaster UK

Around £280–£570

MOZA CRP2: £359 (main pick, and the Xbox pick). The CRP2 has a 0–200 kg load cell and a 15-bit angle sensor (CRP2 UK). It connects through the R5 base or by USB, and it's the only load-cell set here with a documented Xbox route (with the ESX wheel). MOZA UK had the two-pedal set at £359, down from £399, on 1 Nov 2026, and Overclockers UK had it at £358.99, in stock, on 31 Oct. There's no three-pedal bundle: the clutch is £99 (Overclockers £98.99), so a full set costs £458 by our sums. MOZA also sells an inversion kit for hanging the pedals from above (£179).

Other sets, PC only: the Fanatec ClubSport V3 (90 kg load cell, about £280 at Scan, Overclockers and Puresims) has a USB port built in, so you don't need Fanatec's USB adapter. The Simagic P1000 (100 kg) costs £372 for two pedals and £469 for three at Trak Racer UK. The Heusinkveld Sprint (120 kg load cell, 65 kg max braking force) costs about £569 for three pedals at Scan. None of them connects through a MOZA base, so none works on Xbox with an R5.

Conversion kits

No UK seller, and no MOZA warranty cover for the modified pedals. On PC, the RS Pedals (£119.99) or SRP2 (£139) get you a load-cell brake under its maker's warranty.

If you race on Xbox with the ESX

The choice here is short. The R5 Pro isn't Xbox-ready by itself: the bundle ships with the ES Lite wheel, and MOZA says it's "designed for Windows PC". MOZA's route is to fit the ESX wheel (£129) to the base, and MOZA notes that game compatibility "may vary by title". Xbox support for pedals then comes only through the base:

The SRP2 can plug into the base, but MOZA doesn't document it for Xbox, and USB pedals from other brands (Logitech, Thrustmaster, Fanatec, Simagic, Heusinkveld) can't connect through a MOZA base. If Forza Horizon 6 is your main game, read our Forza Horizon 6 wheels guide before you buy: it covers what Forza lists for MOZA and the known fixes.

SRP2 vs CRP2 for R5 owners

MOZA SRP2 MOZA CRP2
Load cell 0–100 kg 0–200 kg
Angle sensor 15-bit 15-bit
Connects via R5 base (RJ45) or USB to PC, one at a time R5 base or USB to PC, one at a time
Xbox with ESX Not documented by MOZA Yes, pedals to the base
Clutch Optional, £45.90 Optional, £99
Extras Rear support bracket £29; Brake Performance Kit £19.90 Inversion kit £179; Brake Performance Kit £19.90
UK price, 2 pedals £139 £359 (RRP £399)
With clutch (our sum) £184.90 £458

Pick the SRP2 if you race only on PC and want the cheapest MOZA load cell. Pick the CRP2 if you race on Xbox or want the higher-rated load cell. Prices from MOZA UK as of 1 Nov 2026.

Will you need a rig?

A load-cell brake works on pressure, so you'll push harder and the pedals need to stay put. Check the maker's mounting guidance and plan how you'll fix the set to the floor, a stand or a cockpit. If space is tight, our small-space cockpit guide compares published footprints and UK prices for wheel stands, folding rigs and compact cockpits.

FAQ

What are the best load-cell pedals for a MOZA R5? On PC, MOZA's SRP2: a 100 kg load-cell brake for £139 (£184.90 with the clutch), MOZA UK as of 1 Nov 2026. On Xbox with the ESX wheel, the CRP2 (200 kg load cell, £359, or £458 with the clutch) is the load-cell set MOZA says works through the base. On PC you can also use other brands over USB, such as Logitech's RS Pedals (75 kg, £119.99) or Thrustmaster's T-LCM (100 kg, £199.99).

Is the MOZA R5's brake pedal a load cell? No. MOZA lists the SR-P Lite2 pedals in the R5 Pro bundle with a contactless Hall sensor, which measures how far you press the pedal, not how hard. A load-cell brake measures force.

Can I use non-MOZA pedals with a MOZA R5? Yes, on PC. They connect to the PC by USB and show up as a separate device, so the game has to accept more than one controller. They won't work on Xbox through the R5 and ESX: MOZA says you can't connect other companies' products directly to its bases.

Which pedals work with an R5 on Xbox? MOZA pedals connected to the base, used with the ESX wheel. Among load-cell sets, MOZA documents only the CRP2. Going by MOZA's general Xbox FAQ, the bundle's SR-P Lite2 should work through the base, though MOZA doesn't name it. MOZA doesn't document Xbox support for the SRP2.

Does the SRP2 plug into the R5 base? Yes. MOZA's SRP2 manual says you can connect it to a wheelbase's pedal port with an RJ45 cable instead of USB, but not to both at once.

Is the original MOZA CRP still worth buying? It's discontinued. MOZA's chart lists it as end of life, and MOZA UK no longer sells it. Look at the CRP2 instead.

Is a load-cell conversion kit worth it? We don't recommend one. We found no UK seller, and MOZA's 12-month pedal warranty covers only unmodified products and excludes unauthorised modifications.
