It has 240 degrees of rotation and uses a bungee cord resistance system. This sounds a lot like the M$ Racing Wheel that many of us own (or, at least in my case, previously owned). The rim looks similar to the stock rim that came with my TX wheel. Although I prefer the GTE add-on rim, I have warmed up slightly to the stock rim and would not hesitate to recommend it with a low budget set up like this. The paddle shifters are actually quite good and the rim has a good, solid feel to it.
Nothing like the MS wheel at all. The MS wheel at least had a motor and ffb. No bungee cords or rubber bands for resistance at all. Now the pedals sucked and are probably on par with the hundred dollar thrustmasters.
