"Worth the investment"
5 stars"

I bought this 2 weeks ago and below are my thoughts. I previously had the Thrustmaster Ferrari 458 Spider Racing Wheel for XB1(the one without force feedback), MS 360 wheel and Momo for the PC. The box it comes in is huge ,and was a little like Xmas unwrapping it all . Some assembly is required but that only took about 20 mins . The wheel has attachments for fixing to a table or placing on your lap (which I prefer) . There are three cords. One for power (which is a little short for my liking) , one for the peddles into the back of the wheel and one from the wheel to the XB1 (USB) . I play Forza (I cant wait for Project cars to arrive in March and F1 some time next year) and this wheel is immense !!. It must have some kind of cogs inside for the force feedback which you can sometimes hear and feel (doesn't detract from anything , I kind of like the mechanicalness of it ) . You feel everything . For example last night I drove some F1 laps around Abu Dhabi and then V8 super car around Bathhurst. They feel completely different . The V8 felt heavier and more substantial and the F1 car light and nimble.The amount of lock I needed in corners was also completely different . Twice ,while trying to rescue a spin at the top of Mt Panorama I have had the wheel ripped from my hands (In a V8)which really added to the realism. You feel the gear shits , rumble strips , if you loose traction you can fell the understeer ,collisions, if you brake to hard you feel the car go light until you get it under control. After playing the same game with control pad, the Thrustmaster with bungee system and this I have to say I am glad I spent money. The wheel itself weighs quite a bit and has some kind suede and really feels great .The buttons and build are solid . It is a bit of a stretch for your thumb to hit some of the buttons. Its also detachable and I believe in the future you will be able to swap wheel for a different style…for example an F1 wheel . The peddles real realistic and are adjustable. I spent the first hour detaching the peddles and messing around with height and angle until I was happy . You can also adjust the springs but I haven't felt the need. The resistance in the peddles feels like a real car . There are rumours that they may add a patch so you can use this with a PC . This would be a great idea. All in all . It cost more than my XB1 but if you really love racing this brings games like Forza to life .

Purchased on Mighty Ape

on opening box, first impressions were far to much plastic for the price, on use, def needs more force feedback, came with issues that i'm trying to get sorted, my box won't recognize it as a device, so no updates or settings, if it had half the price tag it would be worth the purchase, if it didn't have issues, and i've now lost all force feedback, recommendation, save your $$$

Purchased on Mighty Ape

While my wheel was working I found it great very accurate wheel though could have a bit more force feedback for my liking and is a bit noisy other issues being the pedals seem to have a fault I have had two of these steering wheels both getting the same fault of having the accelerator and brake getting locked and unable to use again and been forced to send back both times

Description

Simulator-grade Racing Performance
Mad Catz' Pro Racing Force Feedback Wheel and Pedals for Xbox One is the culmination of extensive teamwork alongside racing drivers from every genre of the sport. The wheel and pedals system is a highly realistic racing simulation accessory, ready to mount into your racing cockpit or clamp onto a desk. Operating from the UK – the heart of the global motorsport industry – Mad Catz' engineering team worked with the very best rally car drivers and endurance racing teams. Utilizing incomparable access to progressive testing and training facilities, Mad Catz forged a state-of-the-art system that shifts next-gen racing into top gear.

Dual Rotation Settings Ideal for Simulation and Arcade Games
Switchable between 270 and 900 degrees of lock-to-lock rotation, the Pro Racing Wheel is genuinely dual purpose. For arcade-style driving games, the 270-degree setting makes turning faster and allows you to focus on the action. Switch to the 900-degree setting and engage full simulation mode, which replicates the authentic challenges facing professional racing drivers. You can effectively test your mettle without compromise, but also have the option to lower the difficulty.

Next-gen Force Feedback with Dual Motors and Helical Gears
Helical gears deliver three distinct advantages to provide a competitive edge. They are stronger, more precise, and far quieter than their straight-cut counterparts. The leading-edge force feedback mechanism delivers a much higher level of realism than previously possible, heightening the sensation of immersion to a level unachievable with other wheels.

Highly Adjustable to Match Personal Racing Styles
Mimicking the adjustability commonly found on race-prepared coilover suspension, the pedals' spring force and travel both conform to individual preferences. The pedals' spacing can be set to nine different lateral positions, and they're also height adjustable to offer a choice of upright or reclined configurations. And, the pedal frame introduces the sensation of footwell limits, replicating the unique perspective of pro racers.

Ergonomic adjustability doesn't stop with the pedals. Set the steering wheel's rake angle to one of four settings – ranging from zero to 15 degrees – with the included Allen key.

Long-lasting and Reliable Construction
A product of this caliber demands only the best finishing. Genuine suede leather covers the aluminum steering wheel. The aluminum-faced pedals employ non-contact, position-sensing technology to increase longevity and reliability. Twin paddles promote instant gear shifting and are made of solid aluminum. Durable metal and strong ABS plastics impart the feeling of quality and craftsmanship, while high-precision internal components – like the wheel shaft's dual roller bearings – boost racing efficiency.

Versatile Mounting Options
For a completely stable response, attach the wheel to your table or desk with the included clamps. And when driving from the comfort of your couch, detachable lap rests keep the wheel securely nestled in your lap.

Ideal Companion for Playseat Gaming Seats
Taking a decisive step beyond commonplace installations, the Mad Catz Pro Racing Force Feedback Wheel and Pedals system easily integrates into Playseat's Re­volution* and Evolution* gaming seats. Providing the means for the ultimate home-racing rig, you benefit from uncompromising performance coupled with striking aesthetics.

*Each sold separately

Supports Future Updates
Two facets of the wheel are primed and ready for potential updates farther down the road. The wheel face, mounted on a removable boss, easily detaches from the shaft to allow uncomplicated swapping. The internal computer chip's firmware is also upgradable via USB connection to a PC.

Created for Forza Motorsport 5 on Xbox One
The Xbox One console has created a new communication protocol for wheels which delivers unprecedented accuracy. Mad Catz' new Pro Racing Force Feedback Wheel and Pedals system makes the most of this new protocol, while satisfying hardcore and casual racing fans alike. Mad Catz worked closely with the Forza Motorsport development team to craft a wheel that exactly matches the level of racing simulation taking place in the game. The Xbox One console is taking racing games farther than they have ever traveled before, and the Pro Racing wheel is an ideal ally for victory in Forza Motorsport 5.
