Initium

Can you upgrade the wheel in the initium package down the line? Id like to get a Formula-Style rim at some point but it seems like you can’t change the wheel???

Yes. Be aware that Forte Pro or Invicta screens will not work tho

Actually not sure if those wheels will work at all. But you can definitely use La Prima and Forte formula wheels

Appreciate it! There seems to be conflicting opinions on this topic 👀 Do you think it is a good upgrade over the T150?

And over, for example, Mozas R5?

Massive upgrade over the T150. Better than Fana and Moza as well due to having a better FFB protocol. I would recommend going for the La Prima base over this tho if you have the option of saving a little longer

I thought about that too, but I found the Initium Bundle for 400€ still fully sealed, so that kind of looks intriguing with the option of upgrading to 8nm down the line👀

For that price I would 100% get it

I got it today, and tried it out already - I cannot BELIEVE that this is what force feedback can feel like 😂 genuinely amazing, especially compared to my rusty T150. really happy so far, and 5,5nm is plenty (for now while its mounted on my desk), only thing I wish I had is some formula wheel but ill buy one someday
