pluko Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 Hi, I know this has been covered in 2007 ? but with new wheels coming out since ........... Looking to the future, its called RFactor and I guess I need to get a steering wheel to keep up with the white tops ! Choices seem to be all Logitech - I can't afford a G25 so .......... the options seem to be the Momo or the Formula Force Ex for PC or the Driving Force Pro or Driving Force GT for PS with a PS/2 adapter. Has anyone got any recommendations or used the Driving Force wheels with RFactor. cheers for any help, Pluko
Walker363 Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 (edited) I use a logitech wingman formula force GP force feedback wheel and find it very good. Another good wheel for starting rfactor I find is good is a microsoft sidewinder. Theres a few of them floating about on ebay at the moment for £10. Walker Edited June 5, 2009 by Walker363
Kruiz 136 Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 Can't really go wrong with the Sidewinder, I'm still using it now and ataining red/superstar grade. Just search ebay for 'Microsoft Sidewinder' usually less than £20. Also make sure it has a USB connection not gameport and I would recomend it has Force Feedback (FFB) not the precision model. Or if you can afford another £30ish go for the momo.
pluko Posted June 5, 2009 Author Report Posted June 5, 2009 Cheers guys Keep being outbid for Momos on ebay at moment - will take a look at the Sidewinders and Saiteks as well all the best, Pluko
Nezza46 Posted June 8, 2009 Report Posted June 8, 2009 i am on the saitekr220 as spike says - however, this wheel does not have any ffb tho pluko - so dont buy it if you want it.

hegg715 Posted December 6, 2009 Report Posted December 6, 2009 have the black momo hutch said about but dnt think its set right
mitch28 Posted December 30, 2009 Report Posted December 30, 2009 have the black momo hutch said about but dnt think its set right I got a formula force for christmas..... am i doing something wrong.... im finding it harder using a wheel and pedals than keys!? its impossible... any help... do i need to calibrate it to suit r factor etc i have no idea!? mitch
Lee Posted December 30, 2009 Report Posted December 30, 2009 Mitch, have you installed the logitech profiler yet from the site? If not do that, then set it up so you can launch rfactor from it. Then when your in rfactor send me a screenshot of your steering wheel settings and i'll see whats wrong there, then when thats done have a play with the profiler settings to get them just right for you.
Spike Posted December 30, 2009 Report Posted December 30, 2009 thrustmaster got now very happy with it 38.00 pounds from game

Stick at it - most people move the wheel far more than they need at first to and end up understeering into the wall. Make sure you've turned your steering lock up as far as it will go in rfactor.
mitch28 Posted January 2, 2010 Report Posted January 2, 2010 right on the tarmac I can just about get round.... shale Im not even going to bother yet... it just wants to drive out the stadium! One problem.... everytime I play rfactor I have to re-assign brake as it does not recognise it? Second problem.... as soon as I start a race weekend... I lose my force feedback... as soon as I return to the home screen it starts again Third problem.... I have no control while testing or practicing or qualifying.. I only have control in a race?? Thanks mitch
mini683 Posted January 2, 2010 Report Posted January 2, 2010 well with the no force feedback bit did you install the software from the disk?, i had the same problem with my saitek but after i installed it force feedback was great.
