Know before you buy
The Alpha Evo uses a custom 5-pole servo motor designed for ultra-low inertia. This results in a direct drive experience that feels sharper and more responsive than standard motors, providing high-fidelity feedback without the cogging sensation found in lesser units.
No, the Alpha Evo is sold as a standalone wheelbase. You will need to purchase a compatible steering wheel rim separately to complete your setup.
The integrated active cooling system prevents the motor from overheating during long or intense driving sessions. This ensures that your force feedback remains consistent and does not fade or lose strength as the wheelbase warms up.
Yes, the Alpha Evo features an open ecosystem. By using the appropriate Slip Ring and QR Adapter, you can mount and connect a wide variety of third-party peripherals and steering wheels to the base.
While the Alpha Evo provides a consistent 12Nm of peak torque, the force feedback strength is managed through the Simagic software on your PC rather than a physical adjustment dial on the base itself.
