Help! The wheel arrived and now it wants to be calibrated. To do so, it says in menu (how do I enter it?) Press D-Pad and Xbox. Which D-Pad? There is no D-PAD?!
Press the Tuning Menu Button near the blue Mode switch and then press the D-Pad (yes, there is one) on the left side and the XBox Button at the same time. You can find this info also in the official Quick Guide in the Download section of the McL (or even included in the Box )
There is this big "P" button, which is said to be the menu button. But pressing this one does exactly nothing at all.
Nevermind - found it. It sooo tiny! Should work now

... Just have a look at the Quick Guide. The "P" Button is of course not the Tuning Menu button! The Tuning Menu button is this very small button on the left side of the blue Mode switch - this will open the Tuning Menu as correctly described in the Quick Guide
Mine will be here tomorrow!!! Maybe i will take the day off Hmmm Well Maybe Not... think it may be better to goto work so i can stack up some cash for the DD wheel \:D/
I don't expect anything yet. There is no date set for me (the Netherlands) And I am no australian It is still saying Estimated shipping date: 15/02/2018 I hope it doesn't change to 15/02/2019
At least I don't feel as bad now for being given the quick release for the wheel for free. I didn't order one and was going to take one off my other rims. A further month after people are posting pictures of their wheel is a little rough but I am waiting for a new cockpit so it's not like I can use it right now anyway.
Still, we will have waited nearly 6 months since the announcement of it's availability. I am happy though that whenever I have ordered Fanatec gear (I have nearly all my kit Fanatec) that it has come within 48 hours of the order being placed. The warehouse is up the road from my work! So it comes fast as!
Looks and feels great, nice and light but absolutely not
cheap.. In a totally different league then any of the Thrustmaster or Logitec
wheels.. Will try it tonight..
I got mine today but it is having xbox buttons. Isn't there an PS4 version?
You can remove the Xbox button caps. There are racing style button caps included.
I did see the caps, but I was just wondering if they send me the wrong version. I liked to have the PS4 caps on it.
As you can read in the webshop desciption there are only the already attached Xbox button caps and the included racing style button caps. Of course you can also use the rim without any button caps.

Okay thnxs for the answers. Then I will remove the plastic bag and start assembling it to the base
GUYS ANOTHER THING PLEASE MAKE SOME TEST WITH BOOTH QR SYSTEMS TO SEE IF THE EXTRA WEIGHT MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE IN THE RESPONSE OF THE WHEEL WILL APPRECIATE.
I’ve just arrived home from work here in Germany to find my new wheel waiting for me with the quick release. My first impressions are very positive. The look and feel of the wheel is amazing ,considering that it is not Carbon Fiber I think Fanatec have done a Great Job to find a 3D plastic Carbon Look. Guys please think about what you are saying when you’re complaining that it is not „real“ carbon ! If they would have made this wheel in Carbon like the real life wheel it would probably cost around €1500 ! I know this because this is my job and yes I have made F1 and LMP1 wheels for „real“ race cars. This wheel has a 3D shape to it unlike the F1 rim which Fanatec could use a flat Carbon plate for.
@Fanatec team and @ Thomas, thanks again for making a great product. I’m sure I‘ll have many hours of fun with it

I am very glad that you and others like the wheel.
What exactly is your job? We are always for people with the right know-how
What's up with some people getting "free" 2Day Shipping?
A friend of mine paid $170 and paid for 2Day Express Shipping. His shipping charge was waived and, because he didn't purchase the QR Adapter initially, he got that free too.
So I paid $170 (rim), $100 (QR), and $20.53 (standard shipping) while he paid $170 for the same thing. And he'll get it sooner as his will deliver tomorrow.
I get that I'll get a $100 QR "coupon", which is not ideal...but to give away Express Shipping to some and not others is highly questionable. We've all been waiting the same amount of time for it.
