Here's a letter wheel with a check-box to reflect (or not) the letters:
Manipulate[
Graphics[Table[
GeometricTransformation[Style[Text[char], size],
RotationTransform[
a, {0, 1}].ReflectionTransform[{Boole@reflect, 0}, {0, 0}]], {a,
Pi/5 Range[10]}],
ImageSize -> 180], {reflect, {True, False}}, {size, {50, 75, 100,
125}}, {char, CharacterRange["A", "Z"]}]
