Breathtaking realism and performance, incredible immersion and precision, superb technology, engineering and manufacturing... introducing the Traction Plus Motion Platform from Next Level Racing®.

The Traction Plus is truly a world-class product designed to finally bridge that gap between track and simulation with a product and experience like no other motion simulator before it. The concept and sliding technology has only been seen before in the highest level professional racing teams, often with budgets in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The Traction Plus was designed and developed in collaboration with a world-class motion engineering team to deliver an unparalleled motion experience. To achieve maximum realism and precision, completely unique technology and engineering has been required with a product designed from the ground up over 4 years including over 2000 components. The platform has been designed and developed purely for simulation, rather than just using commercial actuators and adapting to simulation. The Traction Plus is incredibly more than just a rear wheel drive loss system and is designed to combine with the V3 motion platform to provide an innovative motion simulation experience.

KEY FEATURES

OVER 4 YEARS OF PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT, WITH OVER 2000 COMPONENTS

USED BY PROFESSIONAL DRIVERS, RACING TEAMS AND TRAINING INSTITUTIONS

HIGHEST EUROPEAN MANUFACTURING QUALITY

SUPPORTED BY NEXT LEVEL RACING® RACING PLATFORM MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE VR COMPATIBILITY FOR PERSONAL AND COMMERCIAL USE

COMBINES WITH THE V3 MOTION PLATFORM TO PROVIDE ROLL, SWELL, PITCH, ROLL, PITCH, UNDERSTEER, OVERSTEER, SLIDE/STEER, PARTIAL JUMP, VEHICLE AND ROAD EFFECTS, AS WELL AS MANOEUVRES

PROVIDES ACCURATE VEHICLE FEEDBACK

Traction Plus moves the entire cockpit and provides both understeer and oversteer as realistically and accurately as possible.

Based on feedback from professional drivers during product development, the understeer component of a motion platform normally only found in 6DOF systems is absolutely critical to accurately and precisely simulate the vehicle. By sensing both understeer and oversteer, the platform can be used effectively for driver/runner training, particularly for cornering and rallying, by sensing what happens to both the rear and front of the vehicle. Even the differences between rear-wheel drive, front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive vehicles can be felt with the precise feedback delivered through Traction Plus. The V3 motion platform and Traction Plus combine to provide precise vehicle feedback for front wheel lock, which means you will feel the vibration as well as the front of the vehicle sliding out of the corner when too much brake pressure is applied (also applicable for rear wheel lock depending on vehicle bias).

Traction Plus combined with the Next Level Racing® V3 motion platform provides incredible levels of feedback from the vehicle to the driver so that the driver feels exactly what the vehicle is doing, accurately providing roll, surge, roll, pitch, understeer and loss of front traction (a critical feature normally only experienced on 6dof motion platforms), oversteer and loss of rear traction, power slides and drifts, partial jumps, vehicle and road effects such as road surface, potholes, wheel lock/spin, gear changes, etc. and manoeuvring effects (to feel the side impact contact of opponents/walls).

INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY

The design, engineering and technology of the Traction Plus is completely innovative, and the same level of quality and durability found in the V3 Motion Platform is expected with this product. Designed and manufactured entirely in Europe and powered by MotionSystems, the Traction Plus is a world class product. Also with the home user in mind, careful engineering has been undertaken to not only set a benchmark in performance, but also to ensure that the Traction Plus, like the Motion Platform V3, is the quietest motion platform in its class with the smallest possible footprint.

TAKE IT TO THE SKIES

Just like the Motion Platform V3 that has had professional aviators including: airlines, private, military, and flight training institutions and universities, the Traction Plus is the quietest motion platform in its class with the smallest footprint possible.

The V3 Motion Platform's pitch and roll axis simulation is augmented with Traction Plus to provide the third yaw axis to generate an incredibly genuine flight feel. The simulator also reproduces the movements of landing gear operation, fighter/cannon fire, ground motion, turbulence and crosswind effects, and can be paired with augmented reality/VR to create an unparalleled level or realism. Rudder operation can be effectively trained with the combination of yaw and pivot. Whether for fun, training or professional development, the Traction Plus is sure to be an important tool for any aviator's journey.

CLICK AND PLAY SOFTWARE

The Traction Plus comes complete with Next Level Racing® platform manager software, made specifically for the V3 and Traction Plus platforms, using telemetry data to give the most realistic and accurate profile indications. This is professional quality software developed by the world's leading motion engineers, ensuring absolute accuracy in the delivery of game information, with no delays, in real time. Although it is professional software, it is designed to be used even by a beginner, with an easy-to-use control panel to start the game and the ability to change all settings with a single click. For those users who do like to be more hands-on with every setting, the platform's profiles are highly customisable. Having a close relationship with the software developers behind racing and flight titles allows for constant updates and compatible titles to be added to the Next Level Racing® platform manager as new games are released.

DEVELOPED AND DESIGNED EXCLUSIVELY FOR SIMULATION

Both the Traction Plus and Motion Platform V3 have been designed and engineered to deliver the most realistic, immersive and accurate simulation experience, and together they offer a new benchmark in the motion simulation experience. This is not just another actuator solution that has simply adapted actuators for use in simulation. These are products designed and manufactured from the ground up exclusively for advanced simulation and professional applications, capable of accurately providing feedback to the driver or pilot.

RV AND COMMERCIAL USE

The Next Level Racing® Traction Plus platform, combined with VR, is simply an amazing experience whether for racing, flying, or even fun software for roller coasters or speedboats. Some of our favourite titles include Assetto Corsa®, Dirt Rally®, iRacing®, Project Cars® and Xplane®. For VR companies developing their own software, the SDK is available at an additional cost. The SDK allows integration of third-party software and adding motion for custom VR projects. For more information about the SDK, please contact us brand at support@nextlevelracing.com.

RELIABILITY AND SUPPORT

Next Level Racing® Motion Platform V3 and Traction Plus motion platforms are designed by world-class motion engineers and built with world-class technology and components to give you not only a world-class product, but one that is reliable and built to perform. The Next Level Racing® motion support team will offer dedicated support for the platform and a future Next Level Racing® community forum will allow users to share configurations, profiles and tips with other users from around the world, as well as keep up to date with the latest software updates.

Customers can expect the same level of service, reliability and constant software updates experienced with the V3 motion platform.

With world-class engineering and quality, the Traction Plus is backed by a 2-year consumer warranty and a 1-year commercial warranty for commercial applications.

Like the V3 Motion Platform, the Traction Plus is a product designed to be assembled and configured in-house by the customer without the need for technical expertise. The Traction Plus platform comes with clear assembly instructions that make installation simple even for a beginner.
