CONSPIT ARES APEX Direct Drive Wheelbase

Eight newton-meters of direct drive, aimed squarely at drivers moving up from belt- and gear-driven wheels. The APEX runs a 21-bit magnetic encoder — about 2.1 million points of resolution — through a custom skew-pole motor and a dual-core control board, with an industrial slip ring keeping the USB 3.0 signal clean as the shaft spins. At 5.9kg and 134×150×196mm it's compact enough for desks and cockpits that would choke on a bigger base, and it mounts either bottom (4×M6) or side (4×M8) depending on your rig. Conspit's CDR quick release is auto-locking and tool-free, so wheel swaps are a snap-and-go. Runs off 24V/6.25A power, tunes through the Conspit Link 2.0 software, and passes cleanly through to SimHub. Box includes the base, power adapter, USB cable, mounting hardware and stickers — wheel and quick-release side sold separately.
