Whyt type of steering wheel to get?
(1/9) > >>
pinballwizard79:
I want to add a "wheel & pedals" set to my arcade.

There are some really good PC wheels with force feedback that I would like to use since I also plan on playing TOCA, other new racing games & etc.

The Logitech G25 is the one I am leaning towards.

I hear about 270 degree arcade wheels not working on games requiring 360 degree arcade wheels & vice versa but most PC wheels have a 900 degree turning radius.

Every now & then I see PC wheels bolted on a few cabinets but it never interested me until now.

Analog steering & pedals....how compatible is that in pole position, outrun & etc?

Any insight would be appreciated, thanks.

Hey Pin, why not just buy a real arcade wheel from Happ along with a Opti-PAC or Mini-PAC from Ultimarc?  Those PC wheels are so cheap they might not last too long.  Happ has the industrial Pole Position wheels...

If you buy wheels from Happ, make sure you grab a few replacement timing belts too...

Randy T, can you chime in and give Pin some advice?  You carry some interface control boards over at GGG, what can he grab there?  Actually, I would like to know too.  I am ignorant about the Wiz products.  ???

Think I just said that.  But why not buy from Happ, same thing but half the price?  Shipping would be cheaper too...
