steering control

BallRacing Developments has specifically designed two new models of force-feedback steering control systems for use in the commercial and professional simulation environment.
 
BRD Sim – Pro-ST
 
Aimed at the open-wheel race car market, this model allows for approximately 300 degrees of turn lock to lock. The Pro-ST is fitted as standard in our F1 and generic open-wheel race car and cockpit models and is available, subject to agreement, as a stand-alone device for clients' own simulator projects.
 
BRD Sim – Pro-MT
 
The Pro-MT model targets the requirements of typically closed-wheel format racing, as well as the road-driver training markets. This multi-turn version, features 1080 degrees, three full-turns, lock to lock.
 
Standard Features of both models
 
  • Very strong, with no belts or potentiometers to wear out or break.
  • High resolution optical encoders for perfect linearity and guaranteed years of use.
  • Unique, sleek cast aluminium housing which allows the controls to be fitted in narrow spaces.
  • Auto-calibrating control electronics for ease of set-up and use.
  • Very powerful force-feedback through the steering developing loadings, similar to that felt in an actual race car.
  • Ideal as a tool for race driver-training as it develops the relevant muscles used in race car steering.
  • The strength of the force-feedback is fully controllable through the software drivers provided with the steering system.
  • Supplied with or without steering wheel.
  • Custom-built steering hub design to allow mounting of a range of different steering wheels from race to road type. There are two models of steering wheel available from BRD: F1-type and GT-type. Both offer multiple programmable buttons and optional working LCD screen displays.
  • The hub is quick release as standard.
  • Independent sequential paddle shift gear levers.
  • Independent paddle clutch levers on the steering hub.
  • Force-feedback is compatible with Immersion force-feedback effects.
  • Supplied with 24volt switch-mode power supply, compatible worldwide.
  • Control electronics supplied in separate module with all necessary cables.
 
Options
 
Separate sequential or ‘H’ pattern gear-shifter.
