Simagic GT1 Steering Wheel R/D Compatibility
The Simagic GT1 Steering Wheel R/D is fully compatible with all Simagic wheelbases, allowing seamless integration and smooth transitions across various Simagic setups. This wheel pairs easily within the Simagic ecosystem, thanks to its wireless connection, and provides a quick-release mechanism that racers find useful when switching between setups. The GT1’s wireless and USB duality also means it adapts to different rig configurations, though it’s limited to Simagic-specific bases, offering solid reliability within this range.
For platform compatibility, the GT1 R/D is designed specifically for PC-based sim racing and shines in popular sim racing titles such as iRacing and Assetto Corsa. Due to its focus on the Simagic ecosystem, it does not support console platforms like PlayStation or Xbox, which may be a consideration for console-focused racers. The USB option, however, does provide flexibility within PC setups, keeping it versatile for software integration.
