The Conspit Ares 12Nm + MAX01 bundle is designed for those who want to enter the world of virtual hypercars and GT with a quality, precise and reliable setup. The Ares wheelbase, with 12 Nm of torque and a 23-bit optical encoder, conveys every nuance of the tarmac: from the loss of grip on corner exit to load changes under braking. The MAX01 steering wheel, in carbon fibre and aluminium, with magnetic paddles and a 4″ touchscreen display, guarantees control and data always at hand. An experience for those who want to start out with a setup that measures up.
