I purchased the Compusa wheel and cannot seem to get it calibrated.
It continually pulls hard to the left, in fact I can't go right at
all. Suggestions are welcome.
Also has anyone succesfully integrated rudders/gas&brake pedals?
I bought it today too and returned it. I did get it too work with T2
pedals but the small amount of wheel travel was a bit too little for me.
It calibrated fine at a T2 wheel with the pedals tho. I did not even try
to use the paddles behind the wheel.

Need more info before I can make any suggestions.. I haven't any
calibration problems with the Compusa Formula wheel. So detail
what drives you are using in contorl panel & sims. If you have any
other comments please include..

I prefer the small wheel travel!! Guess this is why we have many
types of wheels but also I have to use the paddles for gas/brake.
Different strokes for etc.. ya know??

I'd recommend that you consider trying to exchange the wheel for
another one -- the steering pot is probably mis-installed or
mis-aligned.
On my CompUSA wheel, the steering pot is fine, but the brake control
is VERY touchy (almost digital; it's either on or off), whereas my
steering and throttle are VERY smooth and linear. In my case, I
figure the brake pot is probably mis-aligned, but the brakes didn't
give me any problems even as touchy as they were, and I was still able
to turn in VERY quick times in Viper Racing, so it didn't really
bother me. The steering would be a different story, of course.
Both of our experiences may be indicative of some lapse in quality
control on the alignment/calibration issue at the factory, but for
$15, I can live with this kind of quirk -- with no degradation in my
confidence in the overall quality of the unit. Then again, if I was
spending $45 or more, I would find such a lapse to be intolerable.
LMK what you do, and how you resolve the issue.

Wow with the good reviews this wheel is getting i might pick one up. For $15
what the hell. I have a CompUSA joystick (standard 2 axis, 4 button) and it
works great in all my games. I switched to a TM Sprint wheel for driving but
still use the stick for other things. Considering my pleasing results with it
the wheel might be a good investment as a backup.
