Heavy duty
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Couldn't get it set up properly some of the screws weren't threaded correctly for the desk clamp I had to return it. I might reorder it, everything felt heavy duty. Maybe I just got unlucky.

Best Entry Level Kit
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Moza R5 Bundle is the complete racing simulator starter kit for those looking to upgrade and have a serious setup. I currently have a GTR Pro Model Racing Simulator with a 49 Ultrawide Monitor. I removed my old entry level steering wheel and pedals and pulled out the MOZA R5 bundle. The first thing I noticed was high quality parts with premium metals and materials applied to the Core wheelbase and pedal construction. Pros: Very sturdy base Easy to install- Plug and Play Balanced Torque feedback Customizable resistance and settings Cons: No Clutch Pedal? Additional Cost.. Setup: 9/10 Having setup a few different sim racing setups before this was pretty straight forward. The instructions were simple to follow as I wanted to make sure I wasn't messing anything up. A pro tip: Make sure you are adding the system in the game you are playing, I tested on Sim Racing, Forza Horizon 5 and Assetto Corsa Evo. These were fairly easy to map to and function as intended. Sim Racing of course allowed for some better refinements for more feedback and adjusting the pedal pressure sensitivity outside the APP. The Unit 10/10 This isn't your $2-3K Drive unit, what this is is an entry level drive unit that gives you an entry point with a 5.5Nm Torque feedback that blurs the line between casual and sim characteristics. It allows for sufficient immersion which everyone can handle from the start and get into the fun feedback of racing elements. An additional factor i like is it is made from Aviation grade aluminum. Pedals: 7/10 This area was my only gripe or negative because lower end models from other brands offer a clutch standard. This model doe snot include the SR-P lite Clutch pedal, which cost an additional $43 not bad but just include it as an all in one solution. The pedals are the SR-P Lite Pedals and when I was looking they do have the Hall sensors used for the feedback and pressure. The pedals also do have the anti slip coating on them. ( Side Note) Additionally, they do sell a Performance kit for $29 ( per pedal) that still isn't a load cell quality but the extra resistance is given via a spring. ( I purchased this upgrade and the clutch to try their whole offering. ( The upgrades aren't really needed if you are just looking for a quick plug and race a few and remove). Overall: 9/10 I like the base package that is presented in this, mainly the build, construction and its quality at the price point. I had zero issues with this product across all my games, and actually enjoyed the sim racing aspect on sim racing and felt better performance over entry level products. I highly recommend this for someone just getting into the hobby of becoming semi serious versus a controller.

Perfect entry into serious sim setups
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For years, I resisted the urge to add a wheel to my setup. Controllers are good enough, I told myself…but then this bundle from MOZA came along, offering many advanced features at a price point that wasn’t totally crazy. I figured I’d give it a spin, and see if the hype about a wheel and pedal setups was true. For this enthusiast bundle, MOZA has centered on their R5 direct drive force feedback base. Accompanying the base are the SR-P lite pedals and the ES steering wheel. Everything is well packed in the box, along with a basic getting started guide, the power supply, a cable to connect the pedals to the base, some screws, bolts, and wrenches, and a USB cable to connect to the PC. Getting the clamp attached to the wheel base just involves 4 bolts. Mount the clamp on the desk, connect the cables, line up the wheel and just push it into the base, and you are ready to power up and get started. The R5 base provides plenty of strength and is compatible with all of the current MOZA wheels. It’s compact, but still offers great fidelity and enough power that you can feel the road. The wheel is a pretty typical “GT” style wheel. The leather wrap feels nice in the hands, and the button layout is intuitively laid out with a D pad and traditional ABXY buttons, along with several other buttons and the shift paddles. It all feels very high quality. If I had any complaint, it would be that the buttons are not backlit. After a while you get used to where they are, but even a basic single color backlight would have been handy here. The pedals work well for what they are. The base is not very heavy and you may need to mount it to something to keep it from moving during spirited driving depending on the floor it’s on. These aren’t the most advanced pedals out there, but for getting started in more serious simulator racing, they certainly do the job. MOZA’s software is pretty good, with tons of options that have built in descriptions to help figure out what everything does. Calibrating the pedals and centering the wheel are all easy, and then you are pretty much ready to go! Using a direct drive base, wheel, and pedals is a revelation. Now I finally understand what the hype is all about. Controllers are a sad substitute for a true wheel and pedal setup. Ripping though the gears with the shift paddles, feeling the road tug and push the car, the force of an impact, all delivered with high fidelity through the wheel, is an entirely different level of immersion. The shift indicators lighting up and then flicking the shift paddles feels like a real race car. I found myself just driving around for the fun of it in Forza Horizon 5, almost feeling like I was really driving a real car, just enjoying the scenery and feeling connected to the car. The R5 base provides strong force feedback, and while there are even stronger bases out there, this is plenty for most gamers. It’s kind of the perfect blend of size and strength. One little quirk, and this is not the fault of MOZA, is that to get the system to work in Forza Horizon 5 requires loading a special config file and setting up a few things. MOZA provides easy to follow step by step instructions, and it was working in just a few minutes. Overall, this setup is a great balance of features, performance, and price. If you are moving up from a basic wheel to a direct drive, or wanting to spend once on a setup that will have plenty of features and staying power, this is one you should consider.

Gear Drive to Direct Drive - Worth the Jump!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Let me cut to the chase - if you're still grinding away on a Logitech G923 or similar gear-driven wheel and wondering if direct drive is worth the hype, the Moza R5 bundle answers that question with a resounding yes. After spending years troubleshooting everything from servers to gaming setups, I've learned that sometimes the jump from "good enough" to "genuinely good" transforms your entire experience. First impressions matter, and the R5 doesn't disappoint. The aviation-grade aluminum wheelbase feels like it means business, not like the plastic toys many of us started with. Setup was refreshingly straightforward: connect a few cables, install the Pit House software, and you're racing. No driver headaches, no compatibility nightmares. The ES steering wheel clicks into place with a satisfying mechanical precision that screams quality, though I'll admit the synthetic leather isn't quite as premium as what you'd find on higher-end wheels. At this price point, I'm more interested in function than luxury. The star of the show is that 5.5Nm direct drive motor. In plain English? It's the difference between playing a video game and feeling like you're actually driving. Every bump, every loss of traction, every subtle change in the road surface translates through the wheel with zero delay. Coming from gear or belt-driven systems, the silence is almost eerie. No more grinding gears drowning out your engine sounds. The force feedback has enough strength to give your arms a workout in longer races, but it won't rip the wheel from your hands like some of the 15Nm+ monsters out there. For most of us, it's the sweet spot between immersion and usability. Here's where the Moza ecosystem shines. That quick-release system isn't just a gimmick. It opens up a world of wheel options as your skills (and budget) grow. The Pit House software might not win any UI design awards, but it gets the job done with enough customization options to dial in your preferred feel across different sims. Want more rotation for drifting? Less force feedback for endurance races? It's all there, and more importantly, it actually works without requiring a computer science degree to figure out. Bottom line: if you're ready to graduate from entry-level gear but aren't prepared to drop $1,000+ on a high-end setup, the R5 bundle hits the sweet spot. Is it perfect? No - those pedals will eventually need upgrading, and if you're a console gamer, you'll need to look elsewhere. But for PC sim racers who want to experience what direct drive is all about without breaking the bank, this is your ticket.

Feature-rich, value-packed, and upgradable
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall, the build quality is excellent. Everything is made of strong materials and feels really durable. There is a lot of adjustability and customizability options which I really appreciate. The steering wheel is 11 inches in diameter, has one flat side, made from aluminum, and wrapped in leather. It feels very sturdy and premium, like something that actually feels similar to something you’d find in to a car. The wheel has 22 built-in buttons which have a satisfying click when used. Included in the buttons are two paddle shifters which feel comparable to real paddle shifters. There are also 10 built-in LEDs that are very bright. The wheel base is also made out of aluminum so feels very durable and sturdy. It’s direct drive (which is the ideal type of wheel motor). The motor has 5.5nm of torque which feels like more than enough for an entry level sim-racing setup. Speaking of entry level sim racing setup, this comes with a desk clamp, so even though I don’t have a fancy cockpit, I can still fundamentally get a good sim racing experience. The pedals are made of stainless steel, have adjustable pedals, and utilize Hall effect sensors so they should stay functionally accurate over time. Assembly/installation was straightforward. The wheel, base, and pedals all come individually assembled. The clamp needs to be attached to the base using 4 screws which is super easy. The wheel has a quick-release mechanism, it can be attached to the base as simply as pushing it on while the bearings are aligned. Connecting the different pieces of the racing sim together are also really easy. They appear to connect via a standard RJ45 cable. All the peripherals connect to the computer with a USB cable. Installing the MOZA pit house software was also really simple. Using this sim racing wheel is great. Movement feels really accurate to the inputs I put in. The 5.5nm of force feedback is excellent and makes me feel like I’m actually racing. One of my biggest concerns about sim wheels is the noise level, and I’m happy to say this thing seems to be as quiet as it can be. One thing that makes this product so great is the MOZA pit house software. The pit house software allows for full customizability of the setup—the amount of force feedback and the min/max of pedal travel being key adjustability options. Another thing I really love about this setup is the ability to upgrade it. MOZA has a number of upgrade options. As I get more into sim racing, I can add new peripherals like a clutch pedal, a floor gear shifter, a handbrake, or different wheel options, among other things. Overall, this is a great product I can highly recommend if you are interested in an entry level sim racing setup at a great value.

Almost perfect starter sim racing setup
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Coming from the Thrustmaster ecosystem of racing setup, this was a welcome breath of fresh air. This Moza wheel and pedals set really feel like the perfect entry level gear for anyone looking to get into sim racing. The Moza ecosystem is also perfect for expanding into and the software to configure it all is one of the best I have used. When setting up this wheel for the first time, everything was seamless. On the PC, after downloading their software, everything was detected and functioning without problems. The wheel base mounted to my Obutto rig without a problem. The pedals were also fine, but the included fasteners were a little questionable. The screws were barely long enough to thread in. The nuts they provided did not fit the other flush mount screws provided so I had to buy some externally. Also, if you were to secure the pedals to a base plate, you have to remove the rubber pads which are glued in (sort of). Even so, after removing the pads, there is still a small gap between the pedals and my base plate that I had to shove some wood under or else it would start rocking around. All of this could have been avoided if the plastic bushings they provided were the correct length, and also maybe they should consider including longer screws so the rubber pads did not have to be removed. Other than that, if I did have to buy extra screws, there are a generous amount of mounting points on the pedals that this would not be a problem. On the first use of the wheels, one thing was immediately apparent. Since this is a direct drive system, it was completely silent! I was so used to the fans from the belt driven T300 that it was stunning being able to hear my in game sounds clearly. This is advertised as 5.5Nm of force, and in my opinion it is basically perfect. I run it at 90% and it can get tiring after a couple of hours. The feedback from the game’s perspective is sent through to the wheel and you can feel the different types of surfaces being driven on. The pedals are also nice and responsive. There is a little room for adjustment, and even expansion into the future for a clutch pedal. I like the ease of the adjustments, but it is disappointing that they did not include a full plate for the throttle pedal. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with this wheel bundle. With lots of room for easy future expansion, I can see a lot of potential for this ecosystem. There are minor gripes, but they can be easily fixed with some minor external work. I would absolutely recommend this for a starter set. The perfect force feedback, the upgradability, and the ease of setup just makes gaming with this so much more fun.

All around great racing wheel!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great racing simulator wheel and pedal bundle! While I used a Logitech G920 for several years, it wasn’t until lately that I became interested in MOZA. And right off the bat, the MOZA R5 bundle was exceptional. The bundle is easy to set up and comes with all attachment parts, bolts for a cockpit and a desk mount. I used the desk mount and it was way better than my old Logitech’s. The desk mount is very secure but does take time to put onto a thin desk and you really have to screw it tighter than you would think to prevent slip. The wheelbase, wheel face, paddles, pedals, baseplate, and desk mount are made from metal and feel solid. The wheel itself is comfortable and smooth yet still has grip. I love how the wheel has shift lights that can be customized for different cars and different games. The buttons on the wheel are also positioned in easy to reach places which is great for car adjustments midrace. The paddles feel solid and offer a nice tactile sound when depressed. The pedals feel amazing and might be my favorite part. They are incredibly light but are still solid and balanced, even on carpet. The pedals height and spacing can be adjusted and a clutch pedal can be bought separately. The pedals themselves offer just the right amount of resistance, in my opinion, so that the throttle is easy to be precise as well as the brake. The baseplate for the pedals is light but still offers a strong solid base that doesn't move around too easily on carpet. The connections are super easy to attach and are accessible, right on the back instead of underneath like the G920. The Force Feedback is absolutely phenomenal! It's easy to adjust using the MOZA PitHouse and the feedback, steering angle, damping, friction, and in-game effects can all be customized and then easily saved as a preset. I’ve tried this wheel out on 4 games; Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC), Le Mans Ultimate (LMU), BeamNG.Drive, and EA World Rally Championship (EA WRC). On ACC, the wheel is amazing and has its own base preset in the PitHouse. The wheel is absolutely incredible and feels alive. I’ve found myself setting faster lap times because I have more precision with the pedals and feeling the grip. The buttons were amazing to adjust my ABS, TC, TC2, Brake Bias, and engine mapping in between turns easily. Just make sure to really tighten the desk clamps before a race. During one of my sessions I thought I tightened it well but the right one wasn’t screwed down enough and the wheelbase rotated and I had a hard time putting it back. If you think it's tight enough, keep going until you feel like you can't anymore. For LMU, I had a hard time setting up the wheel to make it feel right. I most likely set it up wrong for LMU because it felt like trying to balance an egg on a spoon. When I would turn the wheel a bit, I had to fight the wheel because the car felt like it was trying to turn into the wall. Maybe that's just the way LMU is but some more experimenting and setup might be needed. But the game where I felt the most out of the wheel was EA WRC. I instantly felt like I could feel each surface, like asphalt, gravel, sand, snow, and ice. The FFB was insane and the pedals allowed me to keep the car going 100 MPH through the bends. I could feel the car's weight transferring to one side and I could add more rotation in turns with the smooth brake and throttle. In fact, on my first run I beat my old record, which I had to sweat for, with ease. The fact that the wheel can be adjusted so easily is extremely useful. Overall, I highly recommend this Moza Racing simulator wheel and pedal bundle!

Great Entry Level Racing Simulator Bundle
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Moza has another racing simulator wheel with the R5 in it’s lineup. The R5 takes racing games up to a new level. The wheel and pedal bundle add to the realism of racing simulator games. Steering Base/Pedal Base The R5 base has enough weight to keep it on your desk and the c-clamps help secure it well. The amount of space involving the c-clamp helps it to support desks that have a thick top and the clamps will also support securing to a think desk top. Mounting it was simple and quick. The pedal base allowed me to adjust the pedal spacing to my preference. The cable that comes with the bundle was long enough to connect the pedals to the steering base. The connector ports for the base are on the back of it. They’re easy to access and the ports on the pedal base are on the side which are also easy to access. The only thing I would like to see changed would be with the pedal base. I would have liked for it to have had more weight to it. Steering Wheel The steering wheel is covered in leather which feels more like a performance steering wheel. It has plenty of of controls built onto it. I can access all of the controls while keeping my hands on the wheels. The layout is helpful to me for quick easy access while in game. The paddle shifters are also easy to use and are positioned to feel as they would in a real race car. To me, it felt good to use if for hours of game play. App Moza has made the Moza Pit House control software. This is where I set all of the setting for how the steering wheel and pedals feel. The software is straight forward and easy to use. Moza Pit House is also what is used to update firmware for components. Accessories/Support Moza makes many accessories for their racing wheels and pedal bases. I like that I can add a clutch, shifter, handbrake, different steering wheel, and sticker set to the R5. Moza supports many racing simulator games. I hope they continue to add to the list. As long as Moza continues to do that, I’ll be able to use this for a long time. Final Thoughts I’m happy with the R5. I like that I can add to it in the future when I want to due to the accessories that Moza makes. I also like the adjustments that I can make to the steering and pedals. Like many control devices, the manufacturer will need to stay on top of supporting new games as they come out. As long as Moza continues to do that, I’ll be able to use the R5 for a very long time. This is one of Moza’s entry level racing simulator wheels and pedals. It is more than enough for those wanting to get into racing simulator games without going overboard in price. And it has worked very well for me. If you are wanting to try out racing games, then consider the R5 as a way to step up the realism at a good price. If you are full on into it, then look into the higher level offerings from Moza. They have many.

Excellent direct drive racing bundle!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Moza Racing R5 sim wheel and pedal bundle is a great direct drive racing bundle and I can recommend it right away for anyone looking to either get into racing sims or for anyone looking to upgrade their setup. While the R5 is not the highest end racing sim system, it is an outstanding upgrade to older sim wheels or if you are looking for a good midway entry point into the racing sim kits. I really appreciate the fact that Moza uses easily replaceable parts for their systems while having great documentation for customizing and creating your own accessories. The cables for adding accessories are all standard RJ11 or RJ45 cables that you can buy or make yourself to replace faulty cables or to give yourself extra length where needed. Standard screws that you can get from any hardware store and outstanding documentation with measurements of the racing wheel and it's bolt patterns allows you to create and add your own accessories and customizations. The hardware is great, and while the pedals feel a bit "mushy", it makes for a great racing experience that only gets better as you add more accessories. If you ever decide to upgrade to a racing sim cockpit, Moza's documentation and standardized bolting patterns will make it easy to create a more realistic racing experience for you. I personally feel like the software, MOZA Pit House, was not all that difficult to use while providing many options for customization. I can understand how some people would have issues with the software, but for myself it wasn't an issue. Again I feel like this is a great entry point into racing sims and I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to get into or upgrade their racing sim setups.
