This is my first steering wheel, I have otherwise played with Xbox360Pad and informed me in full detail before buying.
For months I have recherhiert and compared, read reviews and information on forums.
First of all the steering wheel 2010 for an MSRP of 85- came on the market. At that time there was also good competition in the form of TM Ferarri430FF for ca also 80-90Euronen and the Fanatec Carrera ~ 120- and the Raptor Evo Wheel (100)
The time was therefore DrivingForceGT well as low, especially since Thurstmaster the F430FF quasi had an almost equal rank superior product at a competitive price.
Why the DFGT will be traded in 2014 between 120e and 140e?
Quite simply, there is no competitor ... all competitors of that time is no longer produced and all existing copies are delivered to retailers.
There are simply in the area around the 100e steering wheels with real force feedback --- ever --- no competitor
There are toy scrap under 60 ... then there's the DFGT and then you go from 240e with the G27 and then from 300e with the really great steering wheels rid (TM T300RS, Fanatec CSR etc.)
But if you want is not willing to pay 240E + a good steering wheel, must simply take the DFGT ... there is nothing else.
Therefore, it is also easy to erkären why the price is always continued to rise upwards ....
-------- Now the steering wheel itself .-------------
Tested now 7h in F1 2012, the courses Melbourne, Silverstone and Hockenheim
1) Steering Wheel
++ Processing TOP
++ Quality nothing to complain about,
++ ForceFeedback very strong, (was initially scared ... how much you can "work" needs)
++ Driving really fun and is significantly more demanding but also Action-packed. No comparison to other Gamepad..ganz League
2.) Pedals
- Here you realize the original price of 85e EIA (2010) .... China plastic that works but quality can not keep up with the steering wheel.
Although the pedals function properly, but simply noted that was saved here at all to allow the prize.
- In addition, I can now say to 7h intensive testing that the pedals for people with wide feet after calming time are very uncomfortable ... 2h straight goes just so, but after that ... I hurts the brake foot ... The brake pedal I do not set a bit too steep and too close to the gas pedal.
Nevertheless 5 star ...
There is nothing like it to drive your price
