| Hi, i just wanted you to tell about the G29 discount on amazon (here in germany now 215 euro instead of 399 euro). For the guys with little money and less good wheels I used a G27 for a very long time and never had problems. A very reliable wheel which should be the normally overprised G29 too. See you on track | |

| Beats me understanding how they could bump the G29 up to 399 Euros when it was basically a G27 with less accesories (shifter) and no real improvements. The 215 euros tag seems to me a much more reasonable price, the G29 is IMO more the "modern" drivingforce pro, and nowhere in the level of the Thrustmaster T300, not to mention the T500. | |

| The G29's have a lot of callibration issues in AMS. Just ask Steve Parker. | |

| I've read negative things about nearly every wheel, but will give the T300 Alcantara a try. Not a Ferrari on track, but still as a logo on my wheel | |

steve, any details? any other g29 users have comments about ams compatability? it is ok if you check the rotation etc before you race in AMS,They are aware of it losing calibration because they have patched the beta version,so fix should be be forthcoming,apart from that superb wheels the brake pedal has a load cell so that takes some getting used to after G27,BUT IS MORE REALISTIC | |

| I bought G29 for 200EUR , in AC superb, in AMS cant use autocalibration, i must set the anle in logitech profiler (the last one has no possibility to set overal gain like older versions) and in car setup too manualy wheel angle (now for 71 i use 480deg) | |

| The G29 does not come with a load cell it has a brake mod of some sorts but it's still a potentiometer. I don't see what's wrong with either wheels they're both great. Even the DFGT is a good wheel when you match it with the g27 shifter and pedals. I've had my g27 for years and it still works great. I just made my own little brake mod so it's easier for threshold braking. I also took my g27 pedals out of the case and have them hanging like a car. The feel is more natural to me I couldnt drive with floor mounted pedals. | |

| Still not worth the price, Logitech is ripping off its customers with it Think I'd buy a TM or F if my G27 would break. Actually no, I'd go and get a DD wheel. | |

| so i tried some searching on the googles and as usual found contradicting information. i know the shifters are different, but...
does anyone know if the pedals from a g29 are compatible with a g25 wheel base?
thanks, dave
update> yes, the pedals seem to be plug and play between the g29 and g25, worked with no issue. | |
