hi does anybody know if it is imposseble to get other pedals to work with the R4 wheel, the ones there followed the wheel just sucks. I have other pedals there connect to the gameport but when I connect both R4 and other pedals none of them are active. Peter Jensen
I'll trade you the Ferrari wheel's pedals with their very high resolution for your Saitek's jitter-free and decently high resolution optical wheel system. It is so annoying that with 5 or 6 major wheels on the market, none of them can make a good wheel, pedals, shifter, paddles and software/drivers all on the same wheel. There are excellent examples of each, but no wheel has the combination of all of these that work well. I agree the Saitek's pedals are a problem, but some of that can be adjusted with a utility called CTFJ. It allows you to tweak the precise attributes of each axis. I used it to make GPL usable with the Saitek--otherwise it was instant brake lock-up with the slightest pedal effort. Now if I could only steer straight in GPL with the Ferrari wheel with the steering ratio set higher than for an oval....which is worse?? Good luck (Saitek R4 FBB and Guillemot Ferrari FFB owner), Marc.
