Simagic Simagic Alpha EVO Ultra 28Nm
In stock. Shipped in 1-3 business days

Simagic Alpha EVO Ultra is the kind of wheelbase that makes you double-check your rig bolts before turning it on. With a massive 28 Nm of direct drive torque and an ultra-low inertia motor design, it delivers immediate steering weight changes and razor-sharp road detail the moment the wheel begins to move. The aluminum housing hides a powerful motor paired with a 21-bit encoder and advanced cooling system, keeping everything stable even under heavy loads. It’s unapologetically built for drivers who want strength, speed, and relentless feedback clarity. What Sets the Simagic Alpha EVO Ultra apart? Massive Torque With Low Inertia Feel – Many powerful wheelbases deliver brute force but feel heavy or sluggish when direction changes rapidly. The Alpha EVO Ultra takes a different approach by pairing 28 Nm torque with an ultra-low inertia rotor. Drivers often mention how the wheel feels lively rather than sluggish, especially when catching slides or correcting mid-corner. The steering doesn’t feel bogged down by motor mass, which makes quick transitions feel remarkably immediate. Zero-Cogging Motor Smoothness – A frequent observation from experienced users is the lack of mechanical stepping when slowly turning the wheel. The zero-cogging design keeps steering rotation smooth even at very low speeds, which becomes noticeable during hairpins, pit maneuvers, or drifting corrections. That smoothness makes subtle grip changes easier to sense without the grainy sensation that can appear in some direct drive systems. Extensive Expansion Ports – With 11 connection ports supporting CAN, CAN FD, and USB peripherals, the Alpha EVO Ultra is designed for complex rigs. Drivers running dashboards, button boxes, shifters, and other accessories appreciate not needing separate hubs. This connectivity makes the base attractive for elaborate setups where multiple peripherals need reliable, centralized communication. Fine Input Detection Through 21-Bit Encoder – The 21-bit encoder plays a big role in steering accuracy. Sim racers frequently notice how small steering inputs translate cleanly on screen, especially in high-speed corners where millimeter movements matter. This high-resolution position tracking helps maintain consistent control during long sessions, reducing the feeling of vague steering transitions. Pros and Cons Pros Cons Extremely strong 28 Nm torque output Requires rigid cockpit for safe operation Low inertia motor improves steering reaction speed Large power supply increases installation space Extensive ports support complex sim racing rigs Smooth steering rotation from zero-cogging motor design Specifications Specification Value Product Name Simagic Alpha EVO Ultra Wheelbase Motor Type Ultra-Low Inertia Direct Drive Motor Maximum Torque 28 Nm Power Input AC 100–240V 50/60Hz 7.0A / AC 120V 60Hz 7.0A Power Output DC 48V 11.5A Max (550W) Control Frequency 20 KHz Processor Frequency 180 MHz Wireless Module Bluetooth 2.4 GHz (2402–2480 MHz) Signal Connections CAN FD / CAN / USB Mounting Holes M6 x10 threaded holes Construction Material ABS and Aluminum Alloy Dimensions 359 × 130 × 110 mm Net Weight 11 kg Included Accessories Installation kit, cable kit, kill switch, power supply Simagic Alpha EVO Ultra Compatibility The Alpha EVO Ultra integrates smoothly within the Simagic ecosystem while remaining open to third-party hardware. It supports Simagic steering wheels using the QR50 and QR70 quick release systems, and the base can also operate with third-party steering wheels via compatible adapters. With CAN, CAN FD, and USB connectivity, multiple peripherals such as dashboards, button boxes, and shifters can connect directly without needing separate hubs. The base also supports Simagic accessories like MagicDash displays and mounting solutions including side and front brackets. Optional brackets allow both front and side mounting, making it adaptable for most aluminum profile cockpits. The built-in extender ports simplify wiring for complex setups with several peripherals attached to the same system. On the platform side, the Alpha EVO Ultra is compatible with Windows PC through Simagic’s SimPro Manager software. It works with major racing titles that support direct drive hardware such as iRacing, Assetto Corsa, rFactor 2, and similar simulations. It is not designed for native PlayStation or Xbox console compatibility without third-party adapters.

Hvad er et direct drive rat?

Et direct drive rat forbinder ratkransen direkte med motorakslen uden remme eller gear imellem. Denne direkte forbindelse leverer force feedback uden forsinkelse og uden mekanisk filtrering, hvilket betyder, at du mærker hver detalje fra vejoverfladen, dækslip og vægtoverførsel, mens det sker i simulationen. Motorens rotationskraft overføres øjeblikkeligt til dine hænder og giver dig præcis information om grebsniveauer og bilens adfærd, som remdrevne systemer simpelthen ikke kan matche.
