Before this, the word active pedal was not yet known in the sim racing market.<\/p>\n<p>When Simucube launched their active sim racing pedal, they also created a new product segment in the sim racing industry and expanded the sim racing pedal concept. They are generally recognized as the future of sim racing pedals and get frequently new features through software.<\/p>\n<h3>The Direct Drive of sim racing pedals<\/h3>\n<p>Active sim racing pedal has no passive elements and it has been created electrically with servo motor. This means that active sim racing pedal has no springs, fluids, or rubbers. This can be compared to the change when Direct Drive motors replaced belt-driven and gear driven wheelbases some years back.<\/p>\n<h3>Upgrade to any pedal you want<\/h3>\n<p>Active sim racing pedals have unlimited adjustability and repeatability, you can add a new dimension to your sim racing rig and can also create the feel of the pedal just how you like:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Adjust to use as a brake, clutch, or throttle<\/li>\n<li>Take a baseline profile and enhance it with your own liking<\/li>\n<li>Match specific race car pedals<\/li>\n<li>Set competitive threshold adjustments to trigger at certain pedal travel<\/li>\n<li>Share pedal profiles together with other people<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Effects that you have not experienced before<\/h3>\n<p>An active sim racing pedal, like <a href=\"https:\/\/simucube.com\/en-us\/simucube-activepedal\/\">Simucube ActivePedal<\/a>, offers various effects designed to give you additional immersion, alongside the wheelbase, giving feedback through ABS, traction control, RPM, G-force, force feedback, and many more.<\/p>\n<p>These effects are meant to simulate the experience of driving a real race car on track, providing a sense of how the car behaves and how the driver\u2019s actions affect its performance. These effects can be modified, adjusted or even toggled-off to match your preferences.<\/p>\n<h3>Easy to use software controls the pedals completely<\/h3>\n<p>Active sim racing pedals are easy to install and adjust. There is no need to adjust the pedals physically after the initial installation, because all the adjustments can be done easily with software connected to the pedals. This guarantees a carefree racing experience and makes it easy to jump from one race car to another, or upgrade to other pedals, in seconds.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-39939 size-full\" title=\"Sim racing throttle pedal\" src=\"https:\/\/simucube.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/05\/Throttle_1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/simucube.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/05\/Throttle_1-1.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/simucube.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/05\/Throttle_1-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/simucube.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/05\/Throttle_1-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/simucube.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/05\/Throttle_1-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/simucube.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/05\/Throttle_1-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Passive sim racing pedals<\/h2>\n<p>Passive sim racing pedals are more traditional option in the pedal market. Their function is based on spring, load cell sensor, and elastomer. With passive sim racing pedals, you need to manually make the wanted adjustments directly on the pedal itself.<\/p>\n<h3>Mechanics and haptic additions control the feel<\/h3>\n<p>Passive sim racing pedals are designed to emulate the sensation of authentic car pedals through the utilization of mechanical springs, lubricants, and bushings. There are also passive pedals with rumble motor providing haptic feedback. With these types of sim racing pedals, the rumble motor is typically integrated into the pedal\u2019s structure.<\/p>\n<p>When the rumble motor is activated during braking, it generates vibration or shaking, simulating the sensation of braking in a real car. It is designed to add tactile feedback and bring the user more immersive experience.<\/p>\n<h3>High-end, as easy as possible, manual adjustments<\/h3>\n<p>The features that make passive sim racing pedal high-end are related to ease of adjustments, quality of materials, and resistance. The pedal needs to be designed so that the user can adjust the pedal quickly and simply. Adjusting the pedal cannot compromise the pedal\u2019s durability or quality.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/simucube.com\/en-us\/simucube-throttle\/\">Simucube Throttle<\/a> is an example of passive sim racing pedal. It is designed to be used alongside the Simucube ActivePedal. It opens the ActivePedal experience for people, who don\u2019t want to buy two ActivePedals, and still want to have a high-end throttle.<\/p>\n<p>It also offers flexibility since you can choose the pedal set you feel is the most beneficial for you.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-39937 size-full\" title=\"Sim racing pedals\" src=\"https:\/\/simucube.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/05\/ActivePedal_4-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/simucube.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/05\/ActivePedal_4-1.png 2560w, https:\/\/simucube.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/05\/ActivePedal_4-1-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/simucube.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/05\/ActivePedal_4-1-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/simucube.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/05\/ActivePedal_4-1-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/simucube.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/05\/ActivePedal_4-1-1536x1024.png 1536w, https:\/\/simucube.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/05\/ActivePedal_4-1-2048x1365.png 2048w, https:\/\/simucube.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/05\/ActivePedal_4-1-2000x1333.png 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Sim racing pedals\u2019 compatibility<\/h2>\n<p>There are several things regarding compatibility that would be good to check before making the purchase.<\/p>\n<p>These include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>compatibility with physical sim racing rigs and pedals<\/li>\n<li>compatibility between the products you already have and the pedals you are going to purchase<\/li>\n<li>support for effects in games<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Next, we will dive deeper into these matters.<\/p>\n<h3>Physical compatibility between sim racing rig and pedals<\/h3>\n<p>The main thing is to ensure that the pedals could be installed to the rig, so the mounting hole dimensions of the pedals and the rig should match with each other. Usually, rig compatibility information, like the mounting hole dimensions, are listed on the rig manufacturers\u2019 website, and you can also find the product information from the product manufacturer\u2019s website.<\/p>\n<p>For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/simucube.com\/en-us\/simucube-activepedal\/\">Simucube ActivePeda<\/a>l can be installed to almost any Trak Racer and Sim-Lab sim racing rigs, and you can see the mounting hole dimensions from the product website.<br \/>\nIf there\u2019s some problems with the hole dimensions not matching each other, additional sim racing rig accessories could help.<\/p>\n<p>For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/simucube.com\/en-us\/simucube-baseplate\/\">Simucube Baseplate<\/a> is designed to ensure that Simucube pedals can be installed to almost any rig. Otherwise, sim racing pedal baseplate can help you to adjust your legs to the correct height, so that they feel supported.<\/p>\n<h3>Compatibility with other products \u2013 look out for the vendor-lock<\/h3>\n<p>It is important to check the compatibility information with products that you might already have with the sim racing pedals you intend to purchase.<\/p>\n<p>It is worth noting that some large sim racing manufacturers provide products that only work within their brand ecosystem. While this vendor lock makes product choices simpler by limiting the options to one manufacturer, at Simucube we believe the racer should be able to choose whichever product they prefer from each category. The freedom of choice among racers compels us at Simucube to strive even harder in delivering products that truly align with what the customer desires to choose.<\/p>\n<p>As an example, Simucube Link Hub is a way to connect Simucube products with any other ecosystem. Simucube Link Hub connects Simucube Active Pedals to users PC, so Simucube\u2019s sim racing pedals can be used with other brands\u2019 products too \u2013 the ones that you choose.<\/p>\n<h3>Game and system support<\/h3>\n<p>In terms of support for active pedals\u2019 effects in games, you should be aware of that certain games may not support specific effects, such as ABS or traction control. To ensure that your preferred game supports the active sim racing pedals you intend to buy, you should check the information provided by the manufacturer or the game provider.<\/p>\n<p>For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/simucube.com\/en-us\/simucube-activepedal\/\">Simucube ActivePedal page<\/a> shows that which games support all the effects of the pedals, and which do not.<\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion: How to choose your high-end pedals?<\/h2>\n<p>High-end sim racing gear is always an investment, but it usually pays off with reliability, ease of use and adjustments, immersive experience and getting the feel like you are in an actual race car.<\/p>\n<p>Commonly, it is more reasonable to buy good high-end products that last than to make interim upgrades and always have the need to upgrade your products again and again. That\u2019s something we hear long-time sim racing hobbyists regretting.<\/p>\n<p>With the right products, your sim racing experience can be leveled up, especially mastering braking with higher end sim racing pedals can make a big difference to your lap times. There are of course several things that need to be considered when trying to decide between sim racing pedal products, and we have tried to list all the important things here in this guide.<\/p>\n<p>Testing high-end sim racing products before making a purchasing decision is a great way to ensure that the pedals suit your needs.
