Conversion Base Side Kit (Current Fanatec Wheels)

My newest conversion kit.

• Brand new PCB version 5.x with USB data protection and filtering.
• Coiled USB cable with choke for better interference protection.
• Full control of firmware, so I can develop this without relying on a third party

Building on my years of experience I am delighted to launch my newest conversion kit for Fanatec steering wheels.

Build from the highest quality materials that are beautifully finished.  No 3D printed parts.

Fitting the conversion...

Fitting the conversion is easy.  All the parts you need are included.  You will need your own tools.
You MUST HAVE a Sim Racing Bay male QR otherwise you cannot use the kit
First attact the Female pin plug to the SRB QR using the supplied Aluminium back plate and supplied M4 bolts.
Next, attach the Pin plug cable to the kit PCB.
 
The kit must be bolted to the Wheelbase using a 70mm hole pattern.  It does not matter if your wheelbase shaft hub is threaded on not, you can use the supplied bolts and nuts to attach it.
 
Attach the SRB QR in front of the kit and bolt both to your wheelbase.
The Coiled USB cable must go direct to your PC - The kit is not compatable with consoles..  You will need to use a USB extension cable, our DIN cable option or have a USB hub near the wheelbase.
 
No soldering, cutting or gluing needed, just removing a few bolts / screws.
The conversion is fully reversable if you keep the parts that you remove.
 
What will work once the wheel is converted?
 
The converted wheel will contact directly to your PC via the coiled USB cable.  You will need either a USB extension, our DIN option, or a USB hub near the wheel.
Converted wheels will NOT work with consoles they are for PC use only.
 
To use the wheel simply plug the USB cable into your PC and you will see a new device appear.
Buttons, Shifters and Rotaries will all work using standard windows drivers and do not require any additional software.
 
You require either the free FANALEDS or SLI-Max Pro software to make the display, LED’s and Rumble work on the wheel (depending on the wheel specification)
Simply instal the software and it should work with your game.
 
Formula and F1 wheels will only have the REV LED’s working.  Currently the side (Flag) LED’s do not work.
The GT7 wheel currently has no working display and the 4 joysticks do not work.
 
You can use the Fanatec APM addon with the wheels.  All four shifters will work.  The clutches will also work, but there is no option for Bit Point as each clutch is just a separate analogue device.
This is the same for the McLaren GT3 V2 - there is no Bite Point.
 
What wheelbase can I use?
 
The converted wheel can be used with any wheelbase / Direct Drive system.  Because the kit plugs directly into your PC it is independent of the wheelbase.
