Hi all, I am setting up the Sidewinder FF wheel with NR4, I am curious since there is no clutch pedal, do you use a button for the clutch? How do you have the wheel set up to shift? Thanks! Don

Use one of the buttons for the clutch, or choose automatic clutch in the N4 options. >How do you have the wheel set up to shift? The shift buttons behind the wheel are excellent for shifting :) Remember to lift off the throttle when shifting though, or your engine will overrev too much. -- Olav K.

By shift buttons behind the wheel do you mean the 6 buttons on the wheel itself (2 vertical rows on each side of the center of the wheel)? Thanks.. "Olav K.

No, not anyone of the 6 on the front, but the two big ones where your fingers are when you are holding the wheel with both hands. :) They are numbered 7 and 8. 7 is for upshift, and 8 is for downshift and can be easily set in N4 control options.
