Officially licensed by the World Rally Championship (WRC), the CSL Elite Steering Wheel WRC is perfect for mastering the most demanding rally stages. This wheel will be used in official WRC Esports competitions.

 

Features & Quality

Brushed aluminium spokes, genuine Alcantara® grip, and orange stitching. The detachable paddles feature Snapdome™ activation for a satisfying ‘click’ response. The RevStripe™​ and integrated three-digit LED screen show useful data in compatible games. Also provides Tuning Menu access, allowing tweaks to your settings during gameplay.

 

Rally-Inspired Design

Sporting a revised internal and external design, the CSL Elite Steering Wheel WRC makes a bold visual statement with its tyre tread graphic and bright orange accents on the paddles and stitching. The 300 mm rim diameter is suitable for many vehicle types, and the lightweight construction is ideal for the quick inputs required in rally driving.

 

CSL DD Now With QR2

Bring the race track to your home with exceptional Direct Drive performance in a compact design. Now including QR2, you’ll experience even more precision and detail in the force feedback.

Fanatec Direct Drive Technology

When the steering wheel is directly mounted to the motor shaft, there’s no belt or gear drive to dilute the force feedback effects. Choose Direct Drive by Fanatec and experience your favourite racing simulations as the developers intended.

Plug & Play

Our strong relationship with game developers means the CSL DD has broad compatibility and consistent behaviour across many popular titles. The Standard Tuning Menu has been simplified, allowing beginners to start quickly without having to worry about settings. The Advanced Tuning Menu remains for enthusiasts.

 

Pedal To The Metal

The CSL Pedals are solidly built from steel. Precise and durable sensors allow you to stay in control with smooth throttle and brake inputs.

Heavy Steel Construction

The stability of the all-metal design means it is built to last. The stiffer spring on the brake pedal combined with the PU foam damper provides a realistic, progressive feeling.

Magnetic Sensors

Both the throttle and brake axes use precision Hall-effect sensors. By measuring pedal position with magnets, the system is contactless, meaning no wear on the sensor and consistent performance.

Special Notes

Not suitable for children. A Direct Drive Wheel Base is not a toy! The fast movements of the steering wheel and strong torque can be dangerous. Please read the safety instructions.

The QR2 Lite Base-Side (Type-C) included with the CSL DD QR2 is compatible with all versions of the QR2 Wheel-Side (Lite, Regular, Pro) and does not cause any torque restriction, even with the Boost Kit 180.

In order to enable features such as Steering Wheel LEDs in some titles, it may be necessary to switch the CSL DD to Compatibility Mode. This can also help with titles not working in standard PC mode.

Only the standard 90W power supply or the Boost Kit 180 can be used with this Wheel Base. The use of any other power supply will void the Wheel Base warranty, is potentially dangerous and can lead to serious injury or death.
