Yes I used to have this type of setup before I bought a TSW.  Everything
worked fine together, just my F1 wheel wore out.

Anybody, does this wheel have dual axis throttle/brake?

Also, how does the wheel compare to the Thrustmaster F1 Wheel?

p.s. I just read on Eagle Womans site about the idea of the Thrustmaster GP
wheel with CH pedals, anyone tried this?

Thanks for any help

I've used this setup for about two months now. It works very well, except in
TOCA, which doesn't seem to recognize the pedals.

I have also this wheel and although it is good I think it is very hard to
repair, because it is using a strange type of pots. So this is something to
consider when buying a wheel/pedal.

What are you talking about.  You should not spout about this if you are not
sure.  
The pots used are normal pots.  The earlier version used standard carbon
track and the later versions use bornes carbon track pots.  They are
standard values so are not unobtainable.

The ones on mine appear to be very good quality pots. There is no appreciable
bounce in them. Tell me Harald how can I convert the F1 Sim to separate
Brake/Gas? I'd like to put a switch in but there is no way to get at the
circuitry on mine. The only maintainance that seems possible is replacing the
pots.

I'd be interested as well. Annoying to see those separate pots but not be
able to use them separately! Mind you, I chickened out of taking my pedal
unit apart at the weekend... looked a little  The assembly isn't the
easiest to mess with though from what I can see.
