Conspit launches ARES Direct Drive Bases with 10 and 18 Nm, 290 GP Steering Wheel & Display
Conspit Racing has unveiled an impressive range of new products, including a wheelbase available in two versions with 10 and 18 Newton meters, a new steering wheel with a display, and a custom dashboard.
ARES Direct Drive Wheelbase
The most notable announcement is the new Direct Drive Wheelbase called ARES, which will be available in two versions:
- ARES: 10 Nm
- ARES Platinum: 18 Nm
Although there is limited detailed information available so far, the manufacturer has shared some data on their social media channels. Pricing and the exact release date have not yet been announced. However, it is certain that the base will be showcased in action at the Simracing Expo this year in Dortmund. Photos reveal that Conspit is using a custom quick-release design that appears to have contacts for power and data connectivity to the wheels.
290 GP Steering Wheel
In addition to the Direct Drive Base, Conspit Racing has also introduced a new steering wheel: the 290 GP Steering Wheel. This wheel has a design reminiscent of the Conspit H.AO HUB, which also features a carbon fiber casing, but it is equipped with a significantly smaller display. The standout features of this wheel include its striking, highly ergonomic design and the use of genuine carbon fiber.
Conspit SimHub CSD Dashboard
For the first time, the SimHub-compatible CSD dashboard was also showcased. This dashboard features a large number of additional LEDs. Particularly noteworthy are the four integrated rotary encoders, which is quite unusual for such a dashboard.
With this new product line, Conspit Racing takes a significant step forward in the world of sim racing. They aim to enhance the realism experience for racers while providing high-quality, durable materials. These innovative products are designed for both hobbyists and professional sim racers and are tailored to meet the needs of the most demanding users.
More information about pricing and availability is expected to be released at the upcoming Simracing Expo.
