Simagic GT Pro Hub Compatibility
The Simagic GT Pro Hub is compatible with Simagic wheelbases exclusively, leveraging Simagic’s ecosystem to deliver seamless connectivity and control. Its versatility, however, goes further by allowing users to mount steering wheels outside of the Simagic lineup. This means users can connect with third-party rims if they use adapters, which is ideal for those looking to customize beyond Simagic’s offerings. However, the hub is not compatible with wheelbases from other brands, so it’s best suited for Simagic-centered setups.
The Simagic GT Pro Hub is designed for PC-based sim racing and is well-suited for popular sim titles such as iRacing and Assetto Corsa. However, it is not compatible with consoles like PlayStation or Xbox. For those building their rig around a PC, the GT Pro Hub provides ample flexibility, while console users may need to consider other options.
