Some found the MOMO's feel inferior to the original Wingman, but most owners said its ball-bearing design made it far smoother and more solid than the GP.

Logitech MOMO force feedback wheel spotted 2001-08-31 · 27 posts
S.J. Rant posted an Australian retail listing for a new Logitech MOMO force-feedback wheel with a leather rim and aluminium pedals. Posters debated whether it reused the original Wingman Force Feedback or the newer GP internals, and Ashley McConnell reported that Logitech staff at ECTS told him it was gear-driven but ball-bearinged. Many were disappointed that the pedals still looked like the old weak design and that the cable drive had not returned.
