Anyone out there on this newsgroup using them ??? I have had contact with the company via e-mail, and thye have been most responsive and helpful. These units may be the way we decide to go for our racing simulators. Would appreciate comments, reviews, likes/dislikes, reliability info, etc. from those who have experience with them. The model we are discussing with them is the CDS-4000 "Monza" with the Fluid-Damped steering. Also, anyone have experience and comments on PDPI game controller cards ??? Thank you. All comments and replies will be appreciated. Allan

The ECCI Wheel is a VERY nice wheel, and I am pleased to admit that it is "over" engineered. Quite a work of art in my books. As far as the PDPI gamecard.... it will boast a positioning resolution "at least" 2X what any USB wheel out there has currently. The ECCI wheel and the PDPI gameport is the "overall" pinnacle in performance, precision, stability, and data throughput (taxation) available on the market today. Cheers, Shumi P.S. you can read my review of the PDPI gamecard at: http://www.rs2league.com/reviews/reviews_page.htm Grab a coffee, I go into a bit of detail. You might also want to read my tech papers on gameports at: http://www.rs2league.com/tech_talk/tech_talk_main.htm that will give an even more detailed analysis of the PDPI versus the Standard Gameport on ANY soundcard....
ECCI products have always been very reliable and will probably be the only wheel you'll ever need to buy unless you upgrade to a new ECCI model. While they cost more than their counterparts the reason why is plain and simple. Quality engineering and testing. If you don't mind spending the money, you might as well get the best. Michael K.
