Act Labs Force RS or Logitech Momo?
Ivtyf asked whether to buy an Act Labs Force RS or a Logitech Momo. Replies split: some praised Act Labs support and improved replacement pedals, others had pedal springs fail, and most praised the Momo wheel while disliking its pedals. Larry said his Microsoft wheel kept returning to his desk.

I agree with everything Stephane said abt. the MOMO, *except* he must have
been playing with games that don't allow brake locking. To complain abt.
the throttle travel being too short w/o mentioning the lack of brake-pedal
travel is unconscionable. I spent hours stiffening the resistance and
fiddling with the shape of the response curve (in DXTweak2), and there was
only a fraction of an inch between free-wheeling and smoke pouring off all
four tires in GPL. The MOMO is the best...providing you use 3rd-party
pedals like TSW or (Down Under) Redline.

From personal experience, avoid the Act Labs pedals. I got the AL
performance pedals for Christmas 2001 and replaced springs 3 times. I
sold the whole wheel/pedal/shifter on Ebay a few weeks ago. I feel
that the build quality is not up to par and they (A-L) don't seem
compelled to fix the problem or even acknowledge the issue. I sent
them several emails about the problems I was having and got canned,
generic email replies that new springs were on the way. I got the
"new" springs and they don't seem any different than the ones that I
had. I bought a TSW2 wheel/pedal setup as a replacement. THIS is the
wheel that I should have originally.
Now, the shifter from A-L is a different story. This is the best
invention yet for PC racing sims. Like I said, I sold the whole AL
setup and got the TSW2. But I ordered the GPL USB shifter from AL.
This model is compatible with ALL wheels and plugs in as a USB device.
Works greats.
If you have to have the FF, most recommendations point to the MOMO. I
looked at them at Best Buy, and I didn't like the pedals. They look
like the same pedals from the original LWFF (Big Red) wheel that I
still own. People have said that they work better, but I wasn't
convinced. IF FF isn't a big deal, I would highly suggest the TSW line
of wheels. You can customize it to your exact needs and desires and
can always add on later. I skipped the clutch pedal for now as the one
on the AL, I never used, except as a "novelty". If racign games start
to truly use the clutch, I'll have TSW add it in.
Hope this helps.
Dave
Momo Wheel Great. Momo Pedals are terrible, unless you drive Tractors for a
living and have size 8 feet.

FYI - I have the pedals mounted on a angled stand and I use a Honda Prelude
seat mounted on a raised base. If your talking about using a setup in a
desk chair with pedals on the floor well then any set is going to be bad.

I had some Performance Pedals from that first production run and they were
pretty lumpy. Mine self destructed and were promptly replaced by Act-Labs.
The new ones are MUCH improved and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

I can't reply on all your comments, but I'll vouch for the quality of
the ActLabs rig, and the great customer support I've had from them.
If you like your FF strong, the AL is great. RC2000 at 100% is very
fun, just make sure everything on your desk is secure (I had to velcro
down my front speakers!)
I've heard mixed things about the 3-pedal set, mainly around
durability, but hopefully these were just teething problems. I use my
trusty Thrustmaster NASCAR pro pedals with my wheel, so really can't
comment on how you'd like the stock AL pedals long-term.
For something like GPL, the shifter is a *must-have* - but you can get
the USB shifter for the momo if you want. I checked out the Momo at
my local Best Buy, and I'd love to try one out at home - it felt very
nice, probably the ideal compliment to an F1 game. I seriously doubt
you'd go worng with either one.
HTH,
Kendt

You made a statement and don't want to back it up now? Just curious what
your using and what issues your having with the momo pedals. Some people
don't like them but that can be said for any pedals/wheel. Some people find
the squash ball mod helps a lot but I tried it and prefer it without. Like
everything else it comes down to driving style and what a person likes.

I drove for a couple of years with the old logi pedals, no problem at
all. They aren't as bad as people make out.

It was a FUNNY, not a statement. Please reference the SMILEY at the end of
what I wrote...
You obviously didn't get it.
As for the Momo pedals, they SUCK. The throw is too short. The angle of
the swivel is all wrong. The angle of teh throw is all wrong.
With the exception of the Mad Katz Andretti Wheel Pedals from a few years
ago, I find them to be the worse pedals ever put in the box with any wheel
set, much less a $200 wheel set.
When I take the pedals out of a $200 box, I shouldn't have to modify
anything to make them useful, and in this case there's no squash ball on the
planet that is going to solve all the problems with the Momo pedals.
I'm glad you like them. Want to buy another set?

I've bought several wheels since I got this 2 years ago. Tried them, and
inevitably the MSFFW always ends up back on the desk.
It is durable as hell, the pedals are superb, and it just keeps on a
tickin'. The optical pots mean zero failures or calibration issues.
Now, if Microsoft would only update the SideWinder software, instead of
giving it a totally bogus WHQL certification in it's current sad,
not-updated-for-two-years state.
I guess when you run the lab and write the rules, you can get away with
anything you want :)

I tried and tried with them. Did the squash ball mod - which is a nice
mod - and that helped a little, but my consistency was shot. Completely.
Heel-toeing is a virtual impossibility.
As an experiment, attached my old NASCAR Pro to the gameport and ran with
it's pedals. Only then did I realise how truly dire the Momo pedals were.
Still using the TM pedals now...
I can only recommend the Momo if you can stretch to alternative pedals. I'm
currently saving for the BRD set, but the current rig is more than adequate.
FWIW I run only N2002, GPL and the very occasional NFS:PU. None of these
have issues with me running 4 controllers simultaneously.
