Wheels & Flight Joysticks

Recommendations for buyers

• ✓
  Force Feedback Systems

  Look for gear-driven or belt-driven motors that provide physical resistance, which is essential for feeling the traction and weight of a vehicle in racing sims.
• ✓
  Rotation Degrees

  For racing, ensure the wheel supports at least 900 degrees of rotation to mimic a real car steering column; for flight sticks, look for 3-axis or 4-axis movement.
• ✓
  Mounting Stability

  High-torque wheels and joysticks require sturdy desk clamps or pre-drilled bolt holes for mounting to a simulation cockpit to prevent sliding during intense maneuvers.
• ✓
  Input Customization

  Select devices with programmable buttons and dedicated software support to allow for custom key-mapping in complex titles like Flight Simulator or Elite Dangerous.
