As well as configuring your set-up via software, there is a full range of accessories to physically adjust your hardware too. For example, there is a 200mm rod extension, used to separate wheel and base for an extra bit of leg room. Perhaps you want an E-Stop Switch for all your emergency stopping needs. It does have a very nice, big red button that I definitely want to press on top.

Depending on what sim-racing titles you are playing, there may be some additional setup required. To get up and running in Forza Horizon 5, for example, some configuration files need to be manually added to the game folders before the wheel will be recognized inside of the game. Considering how easy it is to get up and running with the Logitech gear, it’s a bit of a bummer to have these extra steps on the Moza setup. A - The MOZA racing R5 bundle is the perfect first step for people stepping into the wonderful world of sim racing. Enjoy a complete sim racing eco system at less than half the price of some wheelbases on the market. Q - Is the MOZA R5 bundle easy to set up?Other position based pedals such as the CSL Pedals from Fanatec and even the pedals included with Logitech’s G923 do a good job at providing the driver with progressive resistance throughout the brake pedal stroke. This allows the driver to better modulate their inputs threshold and trail brake. Resulting in faster and more consistent lap times.

As well as offering a huge range of functionality, the R5 wheelbase is built to last and is reliable throughout even the longest endurance races. The aviation grade aluminium casing is incredibly durable and houses an intelligent temperature control system which keeps all the important components cool and protected. The base and the steering wheel are connected through a military-grade conductive slip ring with a life of 5 million revolutions. This unique patented design feature grants extremely high stability and durability while still allowing for high-speed rotation. Thanks to the intelligent cooling system, you don't have to worry about the engine overheating. Built-in sensors ensure that the motor stays cool enough even in competition situations. The aluminum housing also supports cooling with its cooling fins. The V2 update to the R9 Wheel Base allows it to also support the MOZA Racing ES Wheel, GS V1/V2 wheel and FSR Steering wheel.

A - Yes! The MOZA racing R5 wheel base is a great introduction to direct drive wheel bases. Q - Is the MOZA R5 Wheel Base easy to set up?

Don’t have space for a wheel stand or racing simulator? The MOZA Racing R5 bundle comes with a handy steering wheel table clamp letting you enjoy the thrill of racing with limited space. All three pedals utilize hall effect sensors. Input is position based rather than force or pressure based which is to be expected for the price. The brake pedal has a completely linear and non-progressive feel. This results in little sensation of how much pressure is being applied. A - The MOZA R5 wheel base can be used with a table clamp for those of you still having to use desk mounted equipment. Q - Is the MOZA R5 wheel base compatible with gaming consoles? MOZA prides itself on developing cutting-edge sim racing products that will go the distance. With extensive consultation from professional racing engineers, drivers, and sim-racers throughout the R&D process, MOZA products deliver a high-quality sim racing experience.Again, another big benefit here is that is ES wheel can easily be modded to a formula wheel or a 12-inch round wheel. Rather than buying an entirely new wheel, this is a more affordable way to play different race styles. Moza R5 Bundle: Pedals That means that the wheel will keep spinning but max angles can be set via the Moza Pit House app if a hard stop is necessary. The SR-P Lite Pedals included in the R5 bundle are without doubt the weak point. They will be the first thing more serious racers will want to upgrade. The R5 wheelbase is the smallest, most affordable option from Moza Racing. Additionally, it offers R9, R16, and R21. Those numbers all represent the peak torque output of each direct-drive wheelbase. Of course, I still find that I enjoy the feel of the Pro Wheel more as I can dial in higher torque when playing ACC and the pedals feel better with more customizability, but the Moza is a fraction of the price. Setup – not as smooth

Looking to fine tune your outputs when racing? This bundle is fully supported by the MOZA Pit House software which allows you to make precision adjustments to get the most out of your wheel and pedals. Thanks to their innovations, MOZA Racing has revolutionised sim racing, creating premium hardware and software for professional or home use. From individual components to the full ecosystem, everything is designed to be dependable in quality and endurance. A performance focused powerhouse, the R9 produces up to 9Nm of Torque, beating out its closest competitors such as Fanatec and Thrustmaster. This streamlined and sleek direct drive wheel base is compact, powerful and built with high quality materials. A - It couldn’t be simpler. The R5 Wheel Base lets you simply plug in and play. Q - Is there a recommended GT Omega Product for the MOZA R5 Wheel Base? One large difference between the existing MOZA range and the R5 bundle is that, rather than pedals requiring a separate USB input to your PC, the SRP Lites plug directly into the base via CAT 5 cable. This simplifies it all down to just one USB connection rather than two.Maximum power with minimum volume, the R5 delivers 5.5 N⋅m of torque giving you a responsive, rewarding and fluid racing experience. Steering is managed through an ultra-high resolution 15-bit motor encoder, providing you with incredibly accurate steering and an unlimited steering angle. A similar experience just a few years ago would have cost well over double the asking price for this, which is remarkable. Coupled with the comprehensive MOZA Pit House Software, the MOZA R9 gives you absolute control over your racing experience. On the surface the R5 is constructed very similarly to the R9. Both of which have an aviation grade aluminum shell with plastic rear housing. We mounted the R5 to both the Next Level Racing Wheel Stand 2.0 and the Trak Racer FS3. The R5 could be mounted using all four threads thanks to its mounting plate, whereas the Wheel Stand 2.0 only lined up with two. With only 5.5Nm of torque being exerted, provided you’ve screwed things in properly, two screws aren’t the end of the world. You’ll be fine.
