CONSPIT Wheelbases — Comparison Table
Conspit Ares Series Wheelbase Lineup
Conspit's key differentiator is a custom motor designed from the ground up specifically for sim racing, unlike most competitors who use off-the-shelf industrial servo motors. The two higher-tier bases (Ares Standard and Ares Platinum) use a 23-bit optical encoder (~8.4M PPR) — the best encoder resolution among all major sim racing brands, surpassing even Asetek's 22-bit and MOZA's 21-bit. Torque on the Ares was upgraded from 10→12 Nm and Platinum from 18→20 Nm via free firmware updates — no hardware replacement needed.
