The SPA wheel is part of the package.

Gotcha but I already have a wheel that I like.

Brian does custom builds, so it`s always worth using that service if you have a design in mind

 

[Alexander Rhodes]

I'm interested in seeing these paddle units. Will it be sliders and switches I assume?

 

[Brian Clancy]

nope, not sliders or switches ;P Cant say more atm, but hope to have some pics/info soon

 

[Alexander Rhodes]

Hmmm... Now you've got me puzzled on the how.

 

[Brian Clancy]

Hall effect sensors (Shhhh, dont tell anyone, its a secret )

 

[George Pilkington]

Noice Brian!

 

[Alexander Rhodes]

sweetness.

 

[Brian Clancy]

initial test boards went very well

 

[Brian Clancy]

but like I say, dont tell anyone...its a secret LMAO

 

[Brian Clancy]

Okay

Another little sneak peek of the first of the SPA based wheels. This is a GT version, the top of the wheel will be removed to accommodate the SLI-Pro and SimScreen LCD panel



The unit features SLI-Pro plus LCD display, 8 high quality momentary buttons, 2 shielded momentary 'toggle switches' for the LCD, 4 rotary encoders, 2 rotary digital thumb wheels and a few other 'goodies' I wont talk about now
Options later will include 'quick release' hubs, Hall effect real Carbon Fibre paddles (up to six of them), illuminated buttons that will light up when in use.....

Expect first pics of the prototype real soon

 

[Alexander Rhodes]

I can't wait How did you get around the button lighting circuit thing? And I want pics of those paddles, they sound awesome

 

[Brian Clancy]

Here are a few pics of the first prototype, its not complete nor is it close to production quality either, but it gives you an idea of what is coming!

 

[OverTake.gg]

The first pictures of SR Hardware's new LMS style wheel have just been revealed. A complete and fully built wheel based on a heavily modified genuine alloy formula race wheel. The unit will include a LCD display, SLI-Pro and extra's such as LED fuel and temp gauges, illuminated/flashing buttons and much more.

Each wheel will be hand made to order, delivering the next step in sim wheel evolution. This wheel will give you ultimate control, ultimate telemetry data display and the last word in immersion and realism for your Logitech G25 steering wheel.

A steering wheel for the Logitech G27 is currently in development and we will report on that as soon as more information will be disclosed on the official SR Hardware forums.

[Ivo Simons]

That looks crazy good. Any idea about the price?

 

[Kieron Swart]

that looks sweet... haha I want one

 

[Alexander Rhodes]

I like

Can we have a close up on the paddles? And what connectors are coming through the wheel? I do say through as there are no cables in sight

 

[Cameron McGeer]

looks wiked, agreed.. I also gota ask price & will it be available worldwide?

 

[Brian Clancy]

Hey!

Standard paddles atm, the hall effect, errrr, top secret ones...sigh, loool, well they are in development atm, WIP is one thing, production is another Cables will all route through the hub of the Logitech unit and then connect to a powered USB hub as a single USB wont supply enough power!

More info soon

 

[Lee Palmer]
