Know before you buy
Yes, the wheel uses a standard bolt mount pattern, making it compatible with most direct drive wheel bases on the market. You will need to ensure your specific base supports the GX12-4 to USB connection for the wheel's inputs.
The dual analog paddles can be configured in your sim software to act as a dual-clutch system for precise race starts, or as individual inputs for throttle and brake control. This flexibility allows you to adapt the wheel to various vehicle types, from GT3 cars to open-wheelers.
Yes, all 14 inputs—including the 8 LED buttons, 4 rotary encoders, 2 thumb encoders, and 2 funky switches—are fully programmable. You can map these to any function within your racing title, such as brake bias, engine mapping, or menu navigation.
The ergonomic silicone grip is designed to provide a secure, non-slip hold that remains comfortable even during long sessions. Unlike some leather or Alcantara options, the silicone material is highly durable and resistant to wear from sweat or friction.
Yes, the paddle shifters feature adjustable travel, allowing you to fine-tune the engagement point to match your personal preference. This ensures a tactile, responsive shift feel that can be customized for your specific driving style.
The wheel is designed for plug-and-play functionality on PC via the included USB cable. While it does not require proprietary software to be recognized as a game controller, you may need to map the inputs within your preferred racing simulator's settings menu.
