Freewheel steering wheel - usage & games supporting it
Hello! I just received my Freewheel by Logic 3 from post and now I'm just wondering how to use it.
It has the normal joyport-connector plug, but do I connect it into the joystick or mouse port? I've heard that Nigel Mansell's World Championship supports the wheel but how do you configure it in-game and to use it? And how to use it in Virtual GP? Also I had in mind to make a list of Freewheel-supported games here, because I couldn't find one anywhere, so let's begin with the ones I know of: Nigel Mansell's World Championship Virtual GP Last edited by Bamiga2002; 25 February 2013 at 13:22. |

If it employs some kind of PWM modulation it might be ok in racing games etc., even if it's digital. In that case it might even be compatible with all games designed for joystick usage?

I must say I don't know the innards and will return it back. The wheel only calibrates to the right though, so somethings not right on the insides.
I will consider other options and say: "I'll be back!" ![]() |

http://www.retrogames.co.uk/more/on/details/028360 - nice example! http://www.retrogames.co.uk/more/on/details/028496 - lol "awaiting stock" - I've got a bunch of these in the attack... in fact, I've got a bunch of a lot of old controllers, and to my recollection they still work! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/C64-Spectr...item257d11ae3b - wow! 99p!
