How to use

Mount the wheel base securely to your sim cockpit or wheel deck using the provided mounting pattern and hardware. Attach a compatible quick-release steering wheel and connect the power and data cables to your PC or compatible console following the manufacturer’s connection procedure. Install or update the vendor drivers and calibration utility, then run the calibration routine to set wheel center, rotation range, and force feedback gains before starting a session.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, ensure the base is firmly fixed to eliminate movement during strong force feedback events, keep firmware and drivers up to date, and adjust force feedback settings in-game or via utility software to match your preferences and the type of racing. Use an appropriate power supply and allow ventilation space around the unit to prevent overheating during extended use.
