Steering wheels with paddles?

[Deadlight]

Hi guys

I'm after a steering wheel, but I have a very particular request - I want to throttle/brake with my hands. I know many wheels these days have gear shift paddles - which ones can be configured for my choice and which are easy to use when driving, ie. don't require double-jointed hands or dislocation of fingers!?

I just bought a Logitech Wingman Formula Force GP the other day and it's great. It has foot pedals, but on the wheel it has up and down gear shift buttons behind the wheel... which you could probably use for accelerating/decelerating, but they are digital and not analog so if that fussed you then I wouldn't bother..

Yeah, analog woulld be nice. So would force feedback - not essentail though.

I'll shortly be receiving a wheel with just such a feature... paddles for brake and acceleration...

In fact, here's a linky...

It's being submitted for review, so I'll let you know as soon as I've had a play with it.

I'd really appreciate that Nick, cheers.

My thrustmaster Enzo wheel has digital paddles for gearshift and analogue paddles below for throttle brake (they duplicate the pedals so cant be used for clutch etc.)
