Interface for wheels?

Pages: (1/3) > >>

jelwell:

I'm planning on building a control panel with 2 360 wheels and 1 270 wheel. As well as 3 pedals.

I'm wondering what combination of opti-pacs, a-pacs, wiz's, aki interfaces or whatnots would be the cheapest, and conversely the best, solution?

I get the impression that the opti-pac is my only choice for 360 wheels? Or are there other spinner interfaces I'm overlooking?

you could get a minipac which is 39.99.  but whatever you choose for your interface for your 360 wheels, your gonna need an a-pac or aki board.

360 wheels, spinners, and mouses are all usually the same thing.

I did. That's why I'm asking.

The minipac you suggested doesn't say anything about being compatible with Steering Wheels.

The A-pac mentions steering wheels and pedals but doesn't say whether they're  360 or 270 wheels. It also says it has 4 analogue spots, that would imply to me that I could have 1 270 wheel and 3 analogue pedals. I'd still need soemthing for the 2 360 wheels though.

The optipac only supports 1 360 steering wheel in USB mode (unless using Analog mame+). 2 in Serial Mode but my serial port is already being used for my Happs Trackball. :( Can I get a serial splitter?
