Comparison PXN V900 vs PXN V9

Types of pedals included in the manipulator package.

This parameter is specified only in controllers designed for auto racing (in flight simulators, pedals have only one specialization — rudder control — and specifying it further is unnecessary). Most of these "racing" controllers are wheels (see "Device Type"), however, pedals can also be released completely separately. In any case, the minimum necessary for more or less effective car control is two pedals, gas and brake. Meanwhile, for enthusiasts of maximum realism, more expensive three-pedal controllers are produced, which also include a clutch; this complicates control but provides many additional possibilities unavailable with two pedals.

The steering wheel covering affects grip, tactile sensations, wear resistance, and comfort during long gameplay. The material determines whether the wheel is pleasant to the touch, won't slip in your hands, and how quickly the surface will lose its appearance with active use.

— Rubber. Practical, affordable, and well-suited for basic gaming wheels. This covering withstands frequent use, is easy to clean, and requires less maintenance, but usually feels simpler compared to leather or Alcantara.

— Alcantara. A pleasant-to-touch material that provides a firm grip, often found in more expensive and sporty steering wheels. It is great for simulators and active driving but gets dirty faster and requires gentle care, especially if playing without gloves.

— Leather. Usually represented by faux leather, making the wheel more akin to a car's and pleasant for everyday gaming. This covering is ideal for general use, GT, rally, and road simulators but may wear out over time in areas of active grip.
