MOZA FSR2 Formula Wheel

280 mm formula wheel with 4.3" touchscreen and six carbon paddles

Description

The MOZA FSR2 is a 280 mm formula-style wheel and the successor to the original FSR, adding a faster screen processor, two extra paddles and flag lights.

Build. 5 mm 3K twill carbon fiber face plate, CNC-machined aerospace-grade aluminum rear housing and perforated microfiber leather grips.

Display. A 4.3-inch full-color touchscreen (480p, 60 Hz) driven by a quad-core processor, with swipe gestures and a UI customizable in MOZA Pit House.

Controls. 10 backlit short-travel buttons, 2 rotary encoders, 3 thumb encoders and 2 seven-way switches. Six paddles: Hall-sensor magnetic carbon shift paddles, analog dual-clutch paddles and two auxiliary paddles for functions like DRS or KERS.

Lights. 10 top-mounted RGB shift/RPM LEDs and 6 side RGB signal lights, adjustable in 16.7 million colors.

Compatibility. Fits all MOZA wheel bases with the tool-free aluminum MOZA quick release; third-party bases via the MOZA Universal Hub Kit. PC only.

Driving style

The FSR2 is a formula and prototype wheel for drivers who manage hybrid systems and many settings mid-race. Its 280 mm shape, six paddles and touchscreen suit F1 cars in the F1 series, iRacing and Assetto Corsa, plus Hypercars and LMP cars in Le Mans Ultimate, where a reviewer found it ideally placed. The chunky grips caused palm discomfort after long stints at high force feedback, eased by lowering strength. Best for formula, prototype and endurance racers on MOZA bases who want a screen and maximum inputs; less suited for rally, drift or road cars, and for SimHub users, since it is Pit House only.

Build quality

Premium build

The FSR2 combines a 5 mm 3K twill carbon fiber face plate with a CNC-machined aluminum rear housing and a solid aluminum quick release, and a reviewer found the construction tight and solid. The paddles are 3 mm carbon fiber with a definite clunk, while the plastic thumb encoders were the weakest part. MOZA lists up to 24 months of warranty.

Software

The FSR2 is configured in MOZA Pit House on Windows PC: input mapping, paddle and clutch modes, LED colors and touchscreen layouts with swipe pages. A reviewer found the screen crystal clear and lag-free but noted there is no SimHub support and customization is limited to Pit House. It is a PC wheel without console licensing; the MOZA Universal Hub Kit enables third-party bases.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use the MOZA FSR2 on a non-MOZA base?

Yes, through the MOZA Universal Hub Kit. A reviewer advises users planning a third-party base or relying on SimHub to weigh the Pit House-only software first.

What changed from the original FSR to the FSR2?

Both are 280 mm with near-identical layouts. The FSR2 adds a quad-core processor for the 4.3-inch touchscreen, two more paddles (six total) and flag indicators. It still lacks SimHub support.

How good is the FSR2 touchscreen?

Despite its 480p resolution, a reviewer found the 4.3-inch screen crystal clear and lag-free while driving, with fine touch response without gloves. Layouts are edited only in MOZA Pit House.

Is the FSR2 comfortable in long races?

A reviewer found most controls within easy reach, but the chunky grip caused palm pain after about 30 minutes at high force feedback; lowering the strength helped.

Are there weak points on the FSR2?

A reviewer singled out the plastic thumb encoders as hard to grip and sometimes unresponsive, and disliked the printed labels and inlaid buttons that are hard to replace.

Is the FSR2 worth $649?

A reviewer says it compares favorably with mid-range Fanatec and Asetek wheels and even preferred it to a $2,000+ licensed F1 wheel. MOZA lists it at $649.

Does the FSR2 work on consoles?

No. It is a PC wheel without console licensing; MOZA's Xbox route is the ESX wheel.

What warranty does the FSR2 have?

MOZA's US store lists up to 24 months of warranty protection and a 14-day returns policy.
