Overview

ARES APEX, the latest addition to the CONSPIT ARES series, brings together the range's core technologies and performance ambitions in a more compact, refined design, with no compromise on performance. It is designed to bring the driver even closer to the action and make professional-grade Direct Drive truly accessible.

Its wheelbase, developed specifically for sim racing, combined with a Force Feedback system optimised with input from professional drivers, enables ARES APEX to deliver an authentic, precise and highly immersive driving experience in every situation.

Precision Performance

Asymmetric dual processor at 170 MHz + 168 MHz for high, stable and responsive performance even in the most demanding driving situations.
21-bit magnetic encoder for extremely precise, high-resolution steering angle detection, capable of conveying every last detail of the Force Feedback.
High-durability industrial slip ring, designed to ensure long-term reliability and stable, interference-free signal transmission. Combined with the USB-A Adapter Spacer, it enables direct USB passthrough for third-party steering wheels.

Optional USB-A Adapter Spacer · Compatibility Without Limits

The ARES series supports an optional USB-A Adapter Spacer that lets you connect any USB steering wheel directly to the wheelbase, using the industrial slip ring for stable, lossless USB passthrough, with no extra cables running to the PC.

The steering wheel cables rotate with the base shaft, eliminating dragging and tangling
Shorter connection path for more stable power and data
Built-in USB Refresher for maximum compatibility, even with SimHub steering wheels

Pure Control Feel

Professional-grade Force Feedback, developed with drivers and vehicle dynamics engineers, for a response true to real-world driving.
Torque response optimised with Enhanced Response Technology, combining precision and responsiveness, with a maximum torque slew rate of 4 Nm/ms.
Motor designed specifically for sim racing, optimised to reduce cogging and ripple, delivering smooth, natural steering.

Authentic Feel Philosophy

ARES APEX Force Feedback is designed with a focus on realism and stability, taking inspiration from real steering systems rather than raw power alone. Developed with professional drivers and vehicle dynamics engineers, it delivers a clean, consistent and natural response in all driving conditions.

The result is steering that clearly conveys vehicle dynamics and track detail, allowing the driver to stay focused on racing lines, braking and throttle control, for a deeply immersive driving experience.

Custom-Developed Motor

Skew-pole design to reduce cogging, noise and vibration, ensuring smooth, quiet steering.
Extremely low cogging torque for stable, precise Force Feedback.
High torque density in a compact, efficient body.
Intelligent thermal management for consistent performance even during the longest sessions.

The Shape of Performance

Compact, lightweight design with bold lines that express speed and control.
Premium materials: one-piece aerospace-grade aluminium motor housing, for robustness, build quality and a refined feel.
Design-optimised cooling: the external shape promotes passive cooling, keeping the wheelbase stable even under high, sustained loads.

Safety First

Advanced functional safety: high performance with safe use in every setting, from professional simulation centres to home environments.
Comprehensive protection: multiple electrical and mechanical safety systems ensure reliability and peace of mind in every driving situation.

Conspit Link 2.0

Intuitive software for configuring and monitoring the wheelbase.
Official presets developed with professional drivers to switch quickly between games or vehicles.
Future updates with Pro-level presets for the most demanding drivers.

CDR Quick Release System

Automatic locking mechanism for fast, tool-free steering wheel changes.
Stable signal transmission via spring-loaded contacts, reliable even with EMI interference and superior to wireless solutions.

Desk Mount and Side Brackets · Maximum Adaptability

The Desktop Mount and the side brackets for aluminium profile rigs offer maximum installation flexibility, allowing you to position the wheelbase securely and precisely in any configuration. A practical, versatile system that simplifies setup and adapts easily to any driving space.
