Direct Drive Wheelbase Forte™ Asetek SimSports
Brand: ASETEK SimSports
We welcome you to a new level of immersion!
When we set out to develop our range of Direct Drive Wheelbases, we wanted to develop the best basics based on all measured parameters. We had higher aspirations than simply reselling a standard industrial servo motor and then trying to fit everything else around it. It was a difficult task, but as with our award-winning Pedals and Steering Wheels, we started from scratch.
We purchased and implemented IP from market-leading suppliers, partnered with Mige, a well-known simracing engine supplier, and after years of development of electronic components, software, firmware, mechanics, cooperation, design, testing, and validation, we are now ready! Meet Direct Drive Wheelbases Invicta™ 27 Nm and Forte® 18 Nm.
True to the spirit of our other products, at Asetek SimSports®, you get the same quality, durability, engineering excellence and, most importantly, the same user experience, regardless of the product purchased. Each 12 to 27 Nm base features a high-end 22-bit encoder, slip ring and electronic components that deliver an unmatched driving experience, leaving cogging and lagging in ancient history. Of course, all vital parts are made of premium aluminum and steel.
All Asetek SimSports® bases provide a smooth, super responsive and accurate response to the driver, where you will feel even the smallest bumps and curbs in the road. As an example, each of our bases has a resolution of 0.000085 degrees or approximately 4,000,000 steps in a single revolution of the Steering wheel! In other words, with an Asetek SimSports® base, you don't have to choose between a true high fidelity driving experience and a low price - you can get it all!
As all bases are designed from scratch, we have been able to develop an extremely compact and flexible form factor that adapts to any platform and need. The base will serve as the central hub of your simulator, where you can connect your Pedals, Steering Wheels and future Peripherals Asetek SimSports® with up to 5 USB-S ports on the back.
In their simplest (factory default) mounting form, the bases come with T-nuts pre-installed in the bottom slots, allowing the motor to slide back and forth on your platform without installing long and costly Steering wheel spacers that can ultimately compromise the life and reliability of your base. For all bases, we have developed multiple mounting options and variety for any platform ranging from a table clamp solution, bottom mount, side mount and even our integrated front mounts.
Many racers love to play and show off their great rig, and so we have implemented up to six fully customizable aRGB LED strips, allowing you to match your base to the rest of your Asetek SimSports® gear, team colors or even the color of your fireproof racing interior Clothing ! Everything is managed by our central RaceHub™ software, which is also the home of your base, where in addition to all your other Asetek SimSports® gear, you can adjust the driving experience exactly to your preference!
All Asetek SimSports® bases feature our own Quick Release system that is as easy to use as shifting gears; literally, to disconnect the Steering wheel from the base, all you have to do is just press a paddle and the Steering wheel is in your hands! Needless to say, we don't rely on wireless signals that can fail or be inaccurate, batteries that need to be charged, or cables that can break or get in the way. It's all included in our quick release.
We realize that many pilots have personal preferences for their Steering wheel and, rather than locking you into a specific ecosystem, we have partnered with a number of leading Steering Wheels vendors who will offer native support for Asetek SimSports® Direct Drive bases, meaning you can be confident that you will be buying into a flexible and ever-expanding ecosystem.
Our relentless focus on performance and precision gives the Steering wheel Asetek SimSports® a competitive edge, allowing you to get down the track and be one of the best! It also gives you the quality and durability you expect from Asetek. Designed to last - designed, assembled and tested in Denmark!
