Here comes the Flat1 Wheel Rim for your ClubSport Wheel

People are still screaming for more so here comes the FLAT1 wheel rim for the ClubSport Wheel.
Just
like the Round1 it is a small rim with just 270 mm but this one is
covered with suede leather. We also added some more buttons and a tuning
display. If you compare the last rims we announced you might get a clue
what they all have in common.
Available this summer for 349,95 Euro / USD (incl. tax / excl. tax)
And we are not done yet...

As for the rest, the buttons, the screen..all very cool and now I'm very interested
oh and btw... I want it as soon as is practically possible.
Also many thanks for efforts which assist me in my endeavour to get my butt closer to the road... at the 'sweat spot' price point for marginal benefit gained.
my guess is that all rims will be way lighter than the F1 rim as the fundamental design principle... the weight of the button modules will somehow be supported by the base structure and not the drive mechanism.
but certainly agree with your insight that multiple 'mix & match' button units/rims would be the most logical way to maximise profits for Fanatec... eg.. ability for each individual to create ultimate bespoke set up for them... plus there is a reasonable segment of their market that will buy everything they produce... in order to find ultimate combination for each car/track/type of race etc and/or just bc we all want more toys ;^}
One request. Can you equip them with different, larger shift paddles, like the ones from the BMW rim for example but shorter due to rim size.
I always drive at 10 to 2 position and not 15 to 3. So i need more peddle upwards.
Round 1, Flat 1.... there has to be an ultra light F1 coming next!!???
And just like all the others it will utilise all/any/none (per user desire) of the universal button module.
hope my guess is correct... if so, please put me down for one of each.
below the CSW and above the CSW. Direct drive is the way to go and it should be
no problem for us to offer a wheel which offers better functionality at a lower
price. But it will still be significantly above the CSW.
Of course all rims will be compatible to all base units so
that our modular system makes most sense and the user can decide between three
different quality and price levels in all product categories: wheel base, wheel
rim, pedals, shifter, cockpits."
Nice Wheel Rim Frans to go with that Kollmorgen Servo Motor you posted. It's an interesting concept dealing with a servo based product and the lack of overall R&D that has been able to be put into this concept for the Sim Race industry due to the cost of materials to do extensive research and comparisons with the different offerings in the Electric Motor Industry and coming up with a Motor + Controller solution at a lower cost than current offerings at this moment in time. I know there are such combinations to under cut the Kollmorgen price but without needed research.
