The Logitech MOMO are a series of racing wheels released by Logitech since October 2001.[1]
The first model, the MOMO Force, has some changes made to the internals, mostly the change from the potentiometer to optical encoder for better steering position tracking, and a wider 270 degree steering angle. Just like the WingMan Formula Force GP before it, it has a single-motor-gear-driven force feedback mechanism.
The MOMO Force receive a upgraded model in a form of the MOMO Racing on October 23, 2002.[2] The MOMO Racing added a stick-type sequential shifter to the base, but has a reduced steering range of 240 degree. The MOMO Racing also has a new pedal set, with a mechanism that allows the pedal set to be bite onto the carpet so it won't move during use.
All MOMO models are supported in games that incorporate Logitech's steering wheel SDK, but requires specific version of Logitech Gaming Software to be installed in order to work.

Logitech Gaming Software
- Button inputs and paddle shifters can be reconfigured.
- The steering sensitivity, force feedback strength, center force strength, soft steering locks and pedal sensitivity can be adjusted.
- Support multiple profile on per-game basic and support automatic profile switch upon detection of the game...
- ...but is incapable of detecting Microsoft Store games.
- The MOMO wheels requires the version 5.10.127 (32-bit and 64-bit) of the driver, which is known to be incompatible with hypervisor-protected code integrity (HVCI) security feature on Windows 10 and Windows 11.
- Can cause software conflict with Logitech GHub if both software run simultaneously.
