r/c type controller ?

by Bad-Bo » Tue, 13 Aug 2002 09:53:44

I am trying to improve my skills in racing remote control cars and I
remembered there used to be a controller which looked similar to the wheel
and trigger remote control transmitters. I'm hoping to use the PC to improve
my timing and reactions - not to take place of real track practise, but
something to do when the weekends are rained off ( common occurrence here in
Scotland !! )

I can only find an old reference to an UltraRacer which was gameport.
Are there any USB controllers that are similar ?

For those not acquainted with racing remote controls, here's a link for my
transmitter .. http://www.racesimcentral.net/

Anyone know of a good quality controller which mimics this for the PC ( pref
USB ) ?

TIA

Peter

  Serpent makes a receiver that would let you use your Magnum Junior controller
to play games with :-)  If you're interested, let me know and I'll dig up a
link for it.
