MOMO Racing FFB Wheel

I purchased this wheel new off the shelf at circuit City for $75,00. The software had never been open and the wheel was just a display model, After I got home and read the instructions it showes a power supply that plugs into the back. Well it wasn't to be found. I installed the software and installed the wheel, no problem and it works. Waht does the power supply do?? Thanks -- Bill D Pensacola, FL

It powers the Force Feedback. You need to go back and get it. If it was a display model, they probably left it sitting on the display. Larry "Bill Driscoll" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Q - Is this wheel a big improvement over the red Logitech FF wheel?

Graphically, yes. Ergonomically, no. "K e v i n �" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:er5Ca.71389$[email hidden]... > Q - Is this wheel a big improvement over the red Logitech FF wheel? > >

its a big improvement, more precise, better pedals. I always had fun with the old wingman, but this is better (and the wingman was getting very old)

It's just a standard plug for a power supply. I probablly have one sitting around the house. So it should be alot better than it already is.....cool It's a big inprovment over my Thrustmaster Ditigal Pro II, which I wore out. Thanks -- Bill D Pensacola, FL

They're usually pretty good about stuff like that. HTH, Chris

Now I can go to the store and they should know what they are looking for. The kid that sold it to me told me over the phone that force feedback runs off the USB port. I'll just go to the store and get some face time with someone. Thanks again Bill D

Yes, the MOMO pedals are better (however, I gave up on the stock pedals and went to TSW pedals - a huge improvement, particularly with games like N2003 that allow lock up under braking), but the wheel itself feels grainy and notchy and seems to suffer from strange spikes and anomalous kickbacks, which is why a lot of players prefer the "Old Red" Logi WMFF, particularly with the ball-bearing shaft mod.

The seller is responsible for this IMHO. Do NOT let them off the hook! -Larry "Chris Z." <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:vF8Ca.1085271$S_4.1094053@rwcrnsc53...

Well good news Went back to the store and got hold of someone that new what it looked like and actually went and looked.But they couldn't find it, and offered to refund my money. Since nI considered I god a pretty good price, I wasn't giving up yet. I called Logitech Monday morning and the guy at tech support couldn't replace it , but told me to call warranty support and tell them that my power pack had gone out, and since I just bought it 2 days ago, it should be covered under warranty.He put all my info in the computer and when I called warranty support, they said no problem, and will ship one as soon as I fax in my proff of purchase. Well, that was done quick, and my power supply should be in the mail. I will say thta having delt with a bunch of warranty, tech support side of companies, I would buy from Logitech again, just because of the ease of dealing with them. I'm sure I'll be back on here asking some force feed back question. Thanks everyone for oyur help and comments. Bill D Pensacola

Same experience with Logi tech support Bill. One of the best experiences Ive ever had while trying to replace a defective product. Logitech support is "A number one" Mitch "Bill Driscoll" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
