Things to Consider
This is a wheel rim only. You must have a compatible Thrustmaster wheel base to use it. Firmware updates may be required for full compatibility with newer bases or games. Always check Thrustmaster's support site. The 31 cm diameter rim is larger than a typical gamepad and requires adequate desk or rig space for mounting. Button mapping may vary by game title. Some sims may not support all rotary encoders or thumb encoders out of the box. ## FAQ
