Final Analyze
This steering wheel is the first one offering FULL compatibility with the Xbox One Console and with Windows 10, The good thing about this wheel is that It can be attached to any Fanatec product , I mean ” Any”, Including just to name a few, the CSL Elite Wheel Base, ClubSport Wheel Base V2.5, or Podium Series Wheel Base and of course all other Fanatec ecosystem products.
Besides that, this Steering wheel comes with a tome of features and fun functionalities, like the 11 buttons, multi-position switches, rocker switches, rotary thumb encoders, and OLED display.
If you are an F1 Die-hard Fanatic I think this is the way to go, Yes It’s cost a lot of money but I think worths the money.
