CONSPIT ARES APEX 8Nm Direct Drive Base: A new era of sensations in Sim Racing

Mechanical precision designed to dominate the track

With its 21-bit encoder and two dedicated processors, the ARES APEX 8Nm reproduces every millimeter of rotation with a stability rarely seen in this category. The high-durability slip ring ensures a clean and consistent signal, even during the most intense sessions.

A custom-developed engine for a natural feel

The dual-pole inclined motor drastically reduces cogging, unwanted vibrations, and mechanical noise. The result: smooth, detailed force feedback that perfectly matches the real-world dynamics of vehicles.

An immersive experience worthy of professional pilots

Co-developed with real drivers, the base offers balanced, realistic, and precise force feedback. Every track irregularity, weight transfer, or loss of grip is perceived organically and intuitively.

A complete, secure, and scalable system

With its robust design, electronic and mechanical protections, auto-lock QR CDR, and Conspit Link 2.0, the ARES APEX 8Nm integrates perfectly into evolving and professional setups. A foundation built to last and support pilots as they progress.

FAQ

A few questions we're often asked about this product.

Our team of experts is here to answer any question you have.

What is cogging and how does the skew-pole motor reduce it?

Cogging is the notchy feeling you get turning the wheel slowly, as if it were passing over teeth. The skew-pole motor smooths that variation out and makes centre feel perfectly neutral. It matters most for the fine corrections you make in a straight line at speed.

Is the ARES APEX 8 Nm a good first direct drive base?

Yes, it's approachable without being a toy. Its 8 Nm are enough to feel the front axle working, and the compact 134 x 150 x 196 mm, 5.9 kg format suits a sturdy desk mount as well as a rig. The 21-bit magnetic encoder and two dedicated processors handle the rest.

How does the wheel mount to this base?

Through the CONSPIT CDR quick release, with the wheel-side half available as an option. The base itself bolts down with four M6 screws underneath or four M8 screws on the sides. A long-life slip ring keeps the signal clean and constant even in intense sessions.
