Clubsport DD Wheel Base

The most advanced Direct Drive system officially licensed for PlayStation®5. The all-new ClubSport DD delivers 15 Nm of consistent torque performance with incredible responsiveness and dynamics. Your favourite racing sim suddenly became much more realistic. DIRECT DRIVE THE RIGHT WAY. Not all Direct Drive systems are created equally. Decades of experience with force feedback technology have contributed to the many structural and electronic control optimisations in the ClubSport DD to deliver industry-leading performance in its class. AN EXCEPTIONAL PLAYSTATION DRIVING EXPERIENCE. Combining PlayStation®5 console performance with FANATEC® Direct Drive technology for the smoothest and most dynamic force feedback sensations. Of course, the ClubSport DD Wheel Base works on PC too. Consistent torque, lap after lap. Engineered to meet strict cooling requirements, the ClubSport DD is the most thermally stable Wheel Base in its class, so you can have absolute confidence that the torque output and force feedback will remain consistent, no matter how long you drive. GENUINE TORQUE. Many mass-market direct drive systems fail to hold their claimed torque figures, gradually derating (reducing motor performance) over time to avoid overheating. The efficient motor and thermally-optimised layout holds a genuine 15 Nm torque even in the most extreme conditions, for example running an endurance race at maximum force feedback settings FEEL THE GRIP. Outstanding thermal stability translates to consistent performance, so you can always trust the information you’re receiving through the wheel. You can only truly feel the tyre grip and drive at the limit when your equipment performs the same throughout the session. ClubSport DD will help to train your muscle memory and become a better driver. Lightning fast acceleration. The speed of the ClubSport DD servo motor allows us to fine-tune its behaviour with more accuracy than any previous Fanatec Wheel Base. This means your steering wheel can feel very active, clearly communicating the smallest details, while also feeling perfectly stable, and resistant to unwanted oscillation. FULLFORCE: FORCE FEEDBACK 2.0 FOR DIRECT DRIVE. The existing force feedback protocol was designed for gear and belt-driven devices – the only hardware available at the time. FullForce is a new force feedback protocol tailored specifically for FANATEC® Direct Drive. Leveraging the instantaneous response and zero backlash of direct drive technology, FullForce generates high-frequency vibrations for a new level of immersive effects. Feel the engine revs, and details of the road surface like never before. Only FullForce gives you the full experience of driving a race car. PRECISION RESPONSE. Class-leading slew rate performance combined with the powerful processor makes every motor reaction incredibly fast and dynamic, while remaining perfectly stable. This behaviour lends itself to traditional force feedback signals as well as enhanced FullForce signals (in supported games). Solid as a rock. Unbelievable power in a compact package. SMOOTH OPERATOR. By splitting the rotor into offset segments, cogging torque is naturally reduced. Combined with our patented FluxBarrier technology which increases efficiency and smoothness, the result is crystal-clear force feedback information in every driving situation. QR2. The ClubSport DD was designed with QR2 in mind from the ground-up. The QR electronics module is now fully integrated with the shaft, significantly improving its strength. Exchanging the QR2 design to QR1 only removes the outer metal flange, meaning that there is no electronic connection to swap.
