Welcome to a new level of immersion!
When we set out to develop our range of Direct Drive bases, we wanted to develop the best bases based on all the parameters measured. We had higher aspirations than simply reselling a standard industrial servo motor and then trying to adapt everything else around it. It was a difficult task, but as with our award-winning pedals and wheels, we started from scratch.
We purchased and implemented IP from market-leading suppliers, partnered with Mige, a well-known supplier of sim racing engines, and after years of cooperation, design, testing, and validation of electronic components, software, firmware, and mechanical components, we're ready! Meet the 27 Nm Invicta™ Direct Drive and 18 Nm Forte® Direct Drive bases.
True to the spirit of our other products, with Asetek SimSports®, you'll get the same quality, durability, engineering excellence, and, most importantly, the same user experience, regardless of the product you purchase. Each 12-27 Nm base features a high-end 22-bit encoder, slip ring, and electronic components that deliver an unparalleled driving experience, leaving cogging and lagging a thing of the past. Of course, all vital parts are made from premium-grade aluminum and steel.
All Asetek SimSports® cradles provide smooth, ultra-responsive, and precise feedback to the driver, allowing you to feel even the smallest bumps and curbs. For example, each of our cradles 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® cradle, you don't have to choose between a true high-fidelity driving experience and a low price. You can have it all!
Because all our bases are designed from the ground up, we've 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, wheels, and future Asetek SimSports® peripherals with up to five USB-S ports on the rear.
In their simplest mounting form (factory default), bases come with T-nuts pre-installed in the bottom slots, allowing the motor to slide back and forth in your platform without installing lengthy and expensive flywheel spacers that can ultimately compromise the lifespan and reliability of your base. For all bases, we've developed multiple mounting options for any platform, ranging from a table clamp solution, bottom mount, side mount, and even our integrated front mounts.
Many racers love to tinker and show off their big rig, and so we’ve 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 flame-resistant racing underwear! It’s all managed by our central RaceHub™ software, which is also home to your base, where in addition to all your other Asetek SimSports® gear, you can fine-tune the driving experience exactly to your preference!
All Asetek SimSports® bases feature our proprietary Quick Release system, which is as easy to use as shifting gears; literally, to disconnect the wheel from the base, all you have to do is simply press a paddle and the wheel is in your hands! Needless to say, we don't rely on wireless signals that can fail or be inaccurate, batteries that need charging, or cables that can break or get in the way. It's all included in our Quick Release.
We realize that many drivers have personal preferences for their wheel, and rather than locking you into a specific ecosystem, we've partnered with several leading wheel suppliers who will offer native support for Asetek SimSports® Direct Drive hubs, meaning you can be confident you're buying into a flexible and ever-expanding ecosystem.
Our relentless focus on performance and precision gives the Asetek SimSports® wheel a competitive edge, allowing you to hit the track and be just another player! It also provides you with the quality and durability you expect from Asetek. Built to last. Designed, assembled, and tested in Denmark!
