Comunque ho scoperto quanto pesa. La versione senza il quick release ma con il suo aggancio, pesa intorno a 1700 grammi contro i nostri 1150 della versione senza quick release ma con le frizioni.

In effetti sono due volanti abbastanza diversi fra loro come concetto costruttivo e come "imponenza", da una parte una replica siml F1 fatta da zero, dall'altra un volante racing modificato e dotato di accessori dello stesso tipo di quelli di un volante F1. E' più che logico pensare che quello di Roso pensi di più, io addirittura pensavo ci fosse più differenza.

Qui, oltre alle discussioni su prezzo, qualità etc., ognuno deve considerare che il peso è comunque un fattore importante da valutare perchè esagerare potrebbe a lungo andare danenggiare la propria periferica. D'altra parte anche l'occhio vuole la sua parte ed effettivamente quello di Roso è molto "coinvolgente" e c'è chi lo usa da più di un'anno..... potendo affrontare una spesa del genere è una scelta sicuramente MOOLTO difficile, se Go!tta dopo averli provati tutti e due mi passa quello che scarta.......

Forse le mie parole sono state fraintese: io non giustifico il prezzo, che reputo una nota negativa del prodotto (come scritto sopra), ma ho solo ritenuto opportuno spendere anche due righe per esplicitare i motivi perch

Current build times*: Wheels about 4 weeks; LCD Box about 2 weeks

Z1 Sim Wheels now offers an LCD Screen which can be integrated into a wheel, or housed in a small box for attaching to existing cockpits, desks, etc. The screen is 480×272 pixels and 16 bit color. There are various displays on the wheel. The software to run the wheel display is included with the wheel, and will be freely available. Any updates, bug fixes, new display screens, etc, will be posted on our site and are available for free to anyone who purchases a screen.
The LCD screen is also available as a stand alone unit.

Garage display:
When you are in the garage (ie not in the car) you will see a statistics screen showing your name, car type, track name and length, and session type. The screen goes on to summarize your current session, with session and stint lap times, both average and fastest. It also shows fuel consumption per lap for the session and stint; the number of laps driven in the session and stint. Your overall position. Lastly, tire temperature information, including temperatures and wear will be displayed.

The bottom of the screen contains up to five buttons allowing you to switch from the above statistics screen to one of the screens below:
Notes screen: This screen shows user defined text that would be useful to have on hand.
Lap Times screen: This screen shows all of your lap times form the current session along with fastest sector information.
Standings screen: This screen shows the standings from the current session, with each driver’s name, lap time, difference to fastest lap and the number of laps completed.
Telemetry screen: This screen allows you to select a pre-recorded telemetry lap file, sync the sim’s replay with the display’s replay, and then play back the telemetry in real time, viewing tire temperatures, ride heights, shock deflections, g-forces, speed, rpms, gear, and throttle and brake application. (For iRacing only).

Dashboards:
When you are in the car, the wheel will automatically detect which car you are in and display the appropriate dashboard. The cars currently supported are:

You can add any car you like through a settings file, and specify which of the above dashboards it should use.
You can also edit the background color of each dashboard, and whether or not the information is displayed in Metric or English units.

The information displayed on the dash varies somewhat from car to car, but includes following:

Position in the race
Pit limiter (for cars that have one) this is a P in the gear display and flashing shift lights
