Steering wheels from third-party manufacturers
Simucube, Simagic, VRS-DD and Co
For the common direct drive systems of simucube, Simagic and VRS, for example, but also commercially available hardware from Thrustmaster or Logitech, the steering wheels of third-party manufacturers can be mounted directly or with the help of adapters. The connection to the PC is usually via a USB port, but occasionally there are also wireless solutions, such as simucube.
Fanatec
If you want to operate a third-party steering wheel on a Fanatec base, you must use an official fanatec solution or a third-party solution for force feedback effects. There are currently three different hubs. The podium hub is best suited for use with a standalone steering wheel.
