Question Looking for a PC/PS4 lap-mountable steering wheel

[tr0gledyte]

Hey guys,

Anyone remember this?

The original Logitech Driving Force for the PS2 and PC. This wheel was absolutely perfect for me! The lap mount in the middle allowed you to clutch the wheel between your legs, in my case this worked perfectly. I could use it on the couch and even in my desk chair. I still have it, and it works on my PC with Windows 10 but unfortunately it's incompatible with the PS4.

I am absolutely unable to mount a steering wheel to a desk nor do I have room for a stand or anything of the sorts, that is out of the question. It needs to fit on my lap. I've scoured the web but haven't been able to find a suitable wheel. I find this odd, I'd imagine there would be a market for lap-based steering wheels. The original Microsoft Steering Wheel for the Xbox 360 could be put on your lap as well. Seems like this option fell out of favor later.

Does anyone know a wheel that's compatible with the PC/PS4 and can be used on your lap? It doesn't need to be fancy or particularly realistic, it can be pretty basic like the Driving Force. 200-degree steering radius is sufficient.

Hope to find a replacement.

No one? Have such wheels really fallen out of favour that much?

The Microsoft X360 wheel was perfectly usable on your lap as well, but after that things seem to have died out. Some people reported discomfort or the wheel slipping, but in my case it worked perfectly. I'm sure it was the same for other people as well.

Obviously mounting a wheel properly will always be best, but it's more costly and not everyone has the room for it. MY PC monitor is also my PS4 screen and I have around 1.5 meters of space between my desk and the couch. I can barely fit my desk chair in there.
