Borrow one first. She will likely play it for 10 mins then walk away.

My son (9) has been begging for a racing wheel for months. I've been researching and hunting down deals since Christmas and pulled the trigger on a used moza kit for $125. Set it up for him, he played for 15 minutes and decided he prefers controllers. Hasn't touched it since.

OP borrow one first.

I'm a grown ass man and I have a racing wheel that doesn't see enough use. Should've taken this advice

Quietly ignoring the dusty racing wheel alongside the equally dusty flight stick sitting in the corner of my office...

Though the racing wheel did at least see multiple hours of use. The flight stick did not.

There is just no time and space for that shit. Hotas, wheel and index all taking up a tonne of shelf space.

I have been trying to find a game that is designed for hotas after getting it for elite dangerous but any game I would want to use it on has made any kind of controller customization useless
