Get ready to take your sim racing setup to new heights with the Ascher Racing McLaren Artura Ultimate. Designed using genuine McLaren Artura GT4 parts, the McLaren Ultimate combines the ergonomics of a real-world race car wheel with cutting-edge sim functionality. The integrated 4” dashboard and 21 RGB LEDs provide instant feedback, keeping crucial data in your field of vision. And let’s not forget those silenced magnetic paddle shifters—offering a smooth yet firm shift action for that unbeatable connection to the virtual track.
What sets the Ascher Racing McLaren Artura Ultimate apart?
Real Motorsport Components This wheel isn’t just inspired by motorsport—it’s built using original parts from the McLaren Artura GT4 car. That means the feel and layout match the real deal, down to the 300mm diameter and closed design, giving sim racers the same control and ergonomics as the pros.
Customizable RGB Illumination The RGB lighting goes beyond aesthetics. It offers telemetry-based feedback via the integrated 21 LED shift lights, giving drivers precise data in their peripheral vision. Plus, 14 fully customizable RGB buttons let you fine-tune everything from color to tactile response, offering an adaptable driving experience.
Silenced Magnetic Shifters Paddle shifters often provide harsh clicking sounds, but not these. The Ascher Racing McLaren Artura Ultimate features silenced magnetic shifters that offer a crisp yet quieter shifting feel. Many sim racers appreciate how this improves immersion without sacrificing tactile feedback.
Unparalleled Control with Multi-function Inputs The wheel is packed with over 100 input combinations—ranging from thumb encoders to 7-way joysticks. Whether you’re adjusting car settings or navigating menus, the wheel offers easy access to essential functions without taking your hands off the wheel.

Ascher Racing McLaren Artura Ultimate Compatibility
The Ascher Racing McLaren Artura Ultimate is designed to work seamlessly with a wide range of popular direct drive wheelbases. Whether you're using Fanatec, Simagic, or OSW, this wheel connects via USB to provide full functionality. It’s also fully compatible with Asetek and other high-end platforms, offering a versatile experience across different setups. However, it doesn’t include wireless options, so be sure to check for clearance with larger wheelbase units.
With over 100 configurable inputs, the Ascher Racing McLaren Artura Ultimate shines in compatibility with PC setups, but it is not compatible with consoles. This is strictly a PC-focused device, with direct support for SimHub integration and telemetry-based lighting. Console racers, unfortunately, will have to look elsewhere for a solution compatible with PlayStation or Xbox.
The Moza R21 Ultra Direct Drive Wheelbase delivers a muscular 21Nm of sustained torque wrapped in a compact aluminum chassis that feels more like a piece of engineering equipment than gaming hardware. Its zero-cogging flat-wire motor produces seamless steering rotation that captures every nuance of road texture and weight transfer. Paired with MOZA’s refined Nexgen 4.0 force feedback algorithm, it transforms each lap into a study in balance and control—every curb hit, every steering correction, feels deliberate, measured, and addictive.
What Sets the Moza R21 Ultra Direct Drive Wheelbase apart?
True Zero-Cogging Flat-Wire Motor — The R21’s motor design eliminates any stepping sensation through the wheel, providing continuous torque delivery that feels fluid through every motion. Unlike many bases that subtly pulse at low speed, this one stays butter-smooth even in tight chicanes. The torque delivery feels organic, giving your hands a genuine sense of weight transfer that stays consistent across the steering range.
Force Feedback Refinement through Nexgen 4.0 — While power gets attention, finesse wins races. The Nexgen 4.0 algorithm takes the raw output of the R21’s motor and refines it into something cohesive and tunable. Racers note the way surface detail transitions naturally—no harsh clipping or dead zones. Whether driving vintage Formula cars or modern GTs, it translates mechanical grip changes with a level of smoothness few wheelbases achieve.
Thermal Efficiency During Long Sessions — The R21’s intelligent thermal management ensures consistent torque output even in endurance events. Its CNC aluminum body doubles as a heat sink, keeping the motor temperature stable without noisy fans ramping up mid-race. Many drivers have praised how the force feedback remains stable after hours of continuous driving—no fade, no softening, just steady torque.
Mechanical Integrity and Build Feel — Constructed from a solid aluminum unibody, the R21 gives an impression of industrial strength the moment you mount it. Every torque surge feels securely grounded, and even under aggressive countersteer inputs, the base stays rock-solid. Add the RGB telemetry lighting, and you have a piece of gear that looks as purposeful as it feels on the track.

The Moza R21 Ultra Direct Drive Wheelbase connects flawlessly within the MOZA ecosystem, linking directly to pedals, shifters, dashboards, and handbrakes without additional USB cables. Its quick release system provides firm, play-free locking and full signal continuity with all MOZA wheel rims. While it can technically integrate with third-party peripherals via adapters, the R21 performs at its best when used in a MOZA-centered setup where communication speed and signal integrity remain uncompromised.
The R21 is fully compatible with Windows PC platforms and supports leading sim titles such as iRacing, Assetto Corsa Competizione, rFactor 2, Automobilista 2, and F1 24. It does not support PlayStation or Xbox consoles. With MOZA Pit House software, users can fine-tune force feedback profiles, torque curves, and damping for each title, ensuring consistent control feel across every racing environment—from GT endurance to open-wheel competition.
