The Hori Force Feedback Racing Wheel DLX is more reserved. The best of these wheels are so powerful they’re tire your arms out in no time at maximum force. Our usual procedure when testing one of these wheels is to crank up the force feedback settings to the max to test its power, only to drop it down to about 75% after a while. We also find this wheel offers possibly the least forceful feedback at this price, certainly less than the Thrustmaster T300RS. This doesn’t ruin the fun at all, but does mean there’s a sort of granular quality to the Hori Force Feedback Racing Wheel DLX as you drive. It offers a less smooth feel to the rotation of the wheel than a belt-driven system, used by Thustmaster’s mid-range-and-up models, or the high-end direct drive style Fanatec now offers even in its base product, the Fanatec CSL DD. It uses a gear-driven system, just like Logitech’s models. This comes down to the force feedback the Hori Force Feedback Racing Wheel DLX offers. However, it’s also less flexible in other ways. It's quick to setup, not something so heavy that bringing it out for a session after a month in the cupboard seems a huge chore. In other words, it’s much like one of the other entry-level force feedback wheels. The base isn’t anywhere near as heavy as a Fanatec ClubSport (opens in new tab) 2.5’s, and it includes a screw-in clamp that secures it to a surface. It is very easy to setup, although as ever we recommend using this wheel with a wheel stand. It has its own power adapter, as the motors that provide the Hori Force Feedback Racing Wheel DLX’s force feedback need much more juice than can be transmitted over a standard USB-A connection. Pedals hook up to the base using a little RJ45 connector, and you plug the wheel itself into your Xbox using a USB cable. You get the base, the rim, a table clamp and the pedalboard. The Hori Force Feedback Racing Wheel DLX includes everything you need to get started. (Image credit: Future) Design and what you get in the box
