VNM Direct Drive Xtreme Wheelbase
Ready to Stop Leaving Torque on the Table? What a 32Nm Direct Drive Wheelbase Actually Delivers
Most wheelbases blur the line between what the car is doing and what the driver feels. The VNM Direct Drive Xtreme Wheelbase is a 32Nm direct drive system built to eliminate that blur, pairing a custom industrial servo motor with a 23-bit absolute encoder to put grip loss, surface texture, and weight transfer directly in your hands. It is built for advanced sim racers, competitive drivers, and professional training environments where force feedback accuracy is not optional.
The Features That Set This Direct Drive Wheelbase Apart
32Nm of Torque: Delivers extreme force feedback strength, replicating real steering forces across GT, formula, rally, and endurance disciplines.
23-Bit Absolute Encoder: An 8,388,608 CPR encoder captures subtle grip changes, weight transfer, and surface texture with high resolution detail.
Custom Industrial Servo Motor: A 5 pole pair servo motor paired with an integrated 480 MHz MCU ensures responsive, low-latency force feedback output.
Advanced Tuning Controls: Adjustable damping, inertia, and friction parameters let drivers fine-tune feedback characteristics to match personal preference and driving style.
Stable Under Heavy Load: Robust construction maintains rigidity and consistent performance during high-intensity driving without flex or degradation.
Broad Title Support: Compatible with iRacing, Assetto Corsa, Assetto Corsa Competizione, rFactor 2, Le Mans Ultimate, EA WRC, and Automobilista 2.
What It's Like to Run a 32Nm Direct Drive System
Grip and Surface Feedback: Telemetry-based force feedback translates subtle changes in traction and road surface into clear, readable steering feel.
High Downforce and Heavy Vehicle Replication: The 32Nm output makes it possible to replicate steering forces from high downforce cars and heavier vehicle categories with accuracy.
Long Session Consistency: With proper tuning, feedback remains controlled and informative rather than fatiguing, supporting consistent performance across extended stints.
Experienced Driver Focus: Best suited to drivers who have the skill set to manage and benefit from a high-torque direct drive system.
Will This Direct Drive Wheelbase Fit Your Rig?
