Hi !

I currently have a MS FF Wheel, and last Satruday i've seen the
Thrusmaster Ferrari FF Wheel, wich look and feel fantastic ( i try it
unplunged not an a game ). The pedals seems great, there's lot of
button, 4 pedal in back of the wheel, and it uses USB.

Do some of you could compare it to the MS FF Wheel on GPL ?

Does it use more CPU ?
Does the foot pedals could be configured either separated or combined ?
Does the analogue pedals behind the wheel could be use as analogue
clutch on GPL ?
Does the FF effect are good ?

Thanks in advance,  now i'm going to check web site about this :o)

I don't notice any CPU consumption (connected through serial)
They are disabled when pedals are plugged-in. I didn't manage to make
it working.
I'd say pretty good but I have nothing to compare with.

In overall I like this wheel though springs on both pedals have
already broken. Less than after 1 month of use. (100+ hours).

If you're talking about the Guillemot Ferrari FF wheel, it's really a
neat little wheel.  You can configure the pedals separately - make sure
to download the latest drivers from Guillemot.

I have played with several FF wheels, and my personal favorite is still
the original Logitech FF wheel (I haven't tried their second-generation
FF wheel yet, but it looks cheaper, although a demo in a store seemed
to prove that force output was startingly high on that device too).
