Moza R5 Bundle + PlaySeat Challenge X review: two great entry-level choices for PC sim racing


Will Judd reviews the Moza R5 Bundle (wheel + wheelbase + pedals) and the PlaySeat Challenge X Logitech Edition cockpit…

For context, that's only £100 to £200 more than popular gear-driven and belt-driven racing wheels, like Logitech's G923 and Thrustmaster's T300, yet superior DD tech should translate into significantly faster and more detailed force feedback and a better driving experience overall. The rim does look much better than that provided with the Fanatec GT DD Pro, with a more mature monochrome aesthetic, and comes with a simple but effective rainbow rev counter - plus mounting points for a proper LCD display. You'd at least be able to remove the pedal part of the Challenge X entirely, making the wheel and chair portions lighter and easier to manage, but you would have to store both pieces separately and probably reconnect them after returning them from their location in storage.
