 Logitech Momo January 6, 2009

I am concerned about the controls. There seems to be inconsistent throttle control during racing games.
How do I play GTR2 with MOMO? December 26, 2008
Krishna Seunarinesingh (Trinidad, West Indies)
I purchased the MOMO, Race 07, and GTR 2 for my son for Christmas. The steering wheel and pedals have been working really well since I downloaded Logitech's updated gaming software for XP, from their website. The real problem is with GTR2. The wheel and pedals work in Logitech Profiler, but only the steering wheel works in-game. I can see the steering turning, but when I depress the gas pedal nothing happens. Can anybody suggest a solution? [I tried the MOMO amd GTR2 on 2 computers, one running XP Home, the other VISTA].
UPDATE
December 27, '08
Ok. I'm updating this review. I did absolutely nothing to the installation of the wheel today and it just worked for itself! Here's how it went: I had followed all of Logitech's instructions for installing the game out of the box and had the experience I described in the review above. Since my son couldn't use the wheel, I packed it up. A couple minutes ago, I decided to give it a go again. I plugged in the USB connector, my computer recognised it,I started GTR2 and went to the control panel. Hoping beyond hope, I stepped on the pedals. Before, the accelerator and brake pedals simply never responded. Today, a bar appeared and extended when I accelerated, but both the brakes and gas were the same pedal. I went into the advanced tab, clicked on accelerate with my mouse, stepped on the gas pedal thereby assigning the right pedal only to accelerate. I did the same for the brakes.
All in all, the steering wheel and pedals work superbly. It definitely beats "driving" with the keyboard and deserves a 5.
My rating has only gone to a 4, however, because of the FRUSTRATION I experienced in setting up the product. I wish manufacturers would give more detailed and sensible instructions for using their products. Thumbs up to Logitech for a good product. Two thumbs down to them for awful documentation.
PS
You might want to cancel or tone down the force feedback effect on your steering wheel, as I did, if your kid is a bit young.
 lasted for only one week December 26, 2008

Payed for it elsewhere worked fine for a week but then broke down.
Vibration was ok in my opinion.
Excellent!!! December 20, 2008

Excellent!!! Excellent!!! Excellent!!!
There is not much else that needs to be said. Logitech is one of my favorite brands (I have always bought their products and only ever replace them if I want to get the newer better version) and I have never had or heard of anyone having a problem with their products.
If you need something and Logitech make it BUY IT! Not only is it cheaper in most cases but it is also going to be better and last longer!

Greetings,
First let me give a little history and equipment list. I've had four Logitech non-force feedback wheels from the late 90s to early 2000s (yellow and black). After going through those I stepped up to the red force feedback (not the MOMO). I enjoyed that and could sense the improvement over the older yellow non-force feedback wheels. Any wheel is better than no wheel.
My system is a Dell XPS 400 with 256mb video ram and 4gig of ram. OS is XP. After those other wheels the red and black force feedback finally burned out so I decided to step up to the newest Logitech - the MOMO Force Feedback. This is the one with the red body and real leather wheel and metal paddles with red and metal foot pedals. This machine was heads and shoulders above the rest and one calibration worked for all games.. The games/sims I do are F12k1 & 2k2, GTR2 and WTCC Race '07 (great game!).
Well my Red MOMO finally burned something out and would no longer do any force feedback and the calibration was all over the place. So after doing a little shopping I've decided on this latest MOMO offering from Logitech. Its cheaper both in price and quality than its Red forerunner however not so much so that its a big deal. Also it secures very well to the desk using a three point system. A plastic center screw is easy to see how that works, but the plastic cover with Logitech written on it must come off so one can adjust the the other two attachment points. DO NOT over tighten any of these posts. When they are all snug they work great together - unless of course you're a gorilla - then you'll have trouble. The paddles are plastic instead of metal but work fine. The calibration out of the box was fine for my WTCC Race 07, but on GTR2 it tends to have a mind of its own. In the Logitech settings I enabled the center spring feature which helped a lot but not entirely. It feels when I get to center that the wheel wants to fall to one side or the other (only in GTR2) and will steer the car off the road by itself - very annoying. In the other game it is fine - smooth progressive and fun! The rubber wheel is fine, unless you're spoiled by the great leather wheel - I'm adjusting quickly. For the price - this is the wheel to get. If you have a deep pocket book then I would be inclined to go with the ridiculously priced top of the line Logitech. What irritates, me is that someone at Logitech figured out they were selling the Red MOMO for too little. So they scaled it back a little quality wise, lowered the price, then put all the great stuff on the new G25 and doubled the price - a clear case of greed and profit margin as far as I'm concerned.
I also wanted to mention that the pedals have better feedback (better springs, i.e. resistance) than the pedals on my Red MOMO! - and of importance, there is a button on the bottom that when pushed, out pops a strip of little gripper cleats, so on a carpet it sticks just fine. If I hadn't discovered this, the pedals would slip quite badly - so press that button and the pedals will stay put. :)
Good luck and enjoy!
best, ~R
