Frequently asked questions

Is the Formula Instinct compatible with Direct Drive?

Yes. It is an open-design cockpit intended for Direct Drive wheels, with the aluminium X-Adapt system that firmly grips the steering column for demanding use.

What is the X-Adapt system?

It is Playseat's patented aluminium quick-release system that fixes the wheel to the frame and lets you adjust it without play, quickly and robustly.

What is Modufoam?

They are modular removable pads, attached with hook-and-loop, that provide tailored lower-back and shoulder support to fit each driver's body.

Does it fold?

It does not fold flat. Its lightweight structure moves into a compact position that makes it easy to store when not in use.

What heights is it designed for?

Playseat rates it for drivers from 120 to 220 cm, with full wheel and pedal adjustment to suit different body types.

What warranty does it have?

Playseat offers a 2-year warranty from the date of purchase on all its products, including the Formula Instinct F1 Edition.
