Hey there friends! For some reason I don't get notifications for all comments, due to that it might take a little longer for me to respond. I'll try to answer within 12 hours! I upgraded to a Logitech G27, the Hori wheel is good but I missed features like a H pattern shifter, force feedback and 900⁰ turning as I drive cars in real life all the time. Anyways if you're here for buying advice I'd also be glad to help!
@@aepfelpfluecker This wheel would be great as a start up, i considered it to be a rather easy to handle wheel especially being used to the G27 right now. However it depends on what you're looking for at the end of the day. Do you want a wheel with force feedback and other realistic features? Than you should look into second hand or refurbished Trustmaster/Logitech steering wheels. If you want a wheel to see if it's something that suits you and you want to just try it out than I'd say this is worth the money! You'd have to get used to the controls at first but once you get the feeling it's a nice addition!
@@DestructiveDan ok, thanks for the quick reply. Since i am mainly going to Use it for Farming Simulator , i will Buy it since ff doesnt Matter in that Case. thank you
my man you dont understand how much this helped me, I had no idea how to use the paddle shifters in-game at first but now you have helped so much. thank you
I use the Hori Apex and love it. Great wheel for the price. You can remap the L2/R2 buttons and Paddle Shifters to give you extra working buttons. For the more technically minded, use an Xinput to Dinput wrapper when possible, this will trick the game into thinking you have a dinput wheel, and disable all extra gamepad assists. Steering Dampening, Deadzone etc.
@@konstantinosavraam7029 When you say "Drift Button" do you mean Handbrake to start a Drift? If that's the case, you will have to change the Key mappings in your game. Just remember, Cross and Square are Combined as the Paddle Shifters. So that leaves Circle and Triangle to use.
Hey Dan, thanks so much for giving such an easy tutorial on how to set up the hori wheel. It was easy to understand and told me everything I needed to know.
I have the hori apex ps5/with options of ps5/ps4/pc which do i need to set it it on cuz i tried each one of them with ur tutorial and it still says “please connect a controller” or does the ps5 wheel not work at all
Thanks for this.i can actually control the car so much better now.at first I though I wasn't any good at project cars but now I've changed the sensitivity of the wheel it steers like it should.
Hey I don't know if my wheel just isn't compatible with my game but nothing really works on my game but I goto a different game and everything works except for the wheel
Dan my gas and brake paddles don’t show up with flashing light. Only the green light is flashing but on the left there is no light to adjust. Could you help me?
Hi, i got my rwa Wheel Betty recently. My wheel isn’t working in game for some reson. It work in the menu bit its completle dead when I try to ride a car
Hi DD, thanks for the setup video. Do you have any advice for what to do if the L2 and R2 buttons are bound to the same inputs at the Brake/Gas pedal, respectively? I have tried factory reset and am unable to wrap my head around how to program the inputs as laid out in the manuals.
with the xbox version of the wheel i hold the assign button and press the gas (to try change the distance of activation for it) and no other light shows up like none on the left side it just keeps flashing on the right side
man i have a problem with these pedals. i bought carpet grip but turns out thats not the problem. when i step on the breaks the whole pedal unit goes up in the air and its driving me nuts.. i may return this just because of that. i originally bought this wheel last week because my index finger feels flattened from holding R2 for 10 hours straight a day for 2 weeks. I have no more feelings in it, its completely numb, so im like okay lets get a wheel... but i dont have room for one of those huge stands... do they make something for the pedals to secure to ground? i have a carpet room. any advice would be amazing

Let me know how it goes man. Looking for a cheap wheel just to drive and chill with. Nothing competitive. Let me know what I think plz. That would be very helpful
From my personal experience it's nice a nice wheel to cruise around for as long as you set it up right, you can win a race with it maybe even drift it depends on how good you are with the wheel!
For the price point it’s a pretty decent wheel, while it is a pain in the ass to get working on PC it works just fine when you know when you’re doing, I’ve had the wheel myself for around 3 years now and soon I’ll be upgrading to a Thrustmaster T300RS GT so I might give this wheel to my younger cousin so he can get into Sim Racing.
@@DestructiveDan hey can you plz tell me that does it give Xbox controller input on pc I ordered it and also purchased forza but don’t know it it will work or not
Is it possible to use the R2/L2 Buttons on the wheel for something else than gas and the brakes? I cant figure out how to remap them. The R2 on the wheel is always connected to the gas pedal and the L2 To the brakes. Same applies for l1/r1 to the shift pedals.....
Alright thats to bad. Im really looking for a not to expensive wheel that i can use for f1 2020. But i want to be able to map those buttons to drs/ers for example, instead of having a bunch of double buttons for the same functions. Thanks for the reply anyway!

Hi, I hope you will help me because when I connect the steering wheels, in forzie horizon 4 it does not show it to me in the settings, it does not detect it, only the controller and keyboard

Long shot if you’ll get this, but when you set the wheel up in PS4-n to all the adjusted settings. Do the setting stay inputted when you change to ps4-s? Sorry if I sound daft.
I need help! So i set it up but i cant seem to connect my dualshock controller to the same account my wheel is connected to so i cant open my map and stuff. How do i fix this?
