Thrustmaster TS-PC Racer Ferrari 488 Challenge Edition - PC

For the 70th anniversary of the world's most famous motor racing brand, Ferrari, Thrustmaster is proud to present the TS-PC RACER Ferrari 488 Challenge Edition racing wheel. It combines the power of Thrustmaster's cutting-edge technologies incorporated in the TS-PC RACER steering wheel base, created to enhance gaming performance, with a replica of the real Ferrari 488 Challenge steering wheel (officially licensed by Ferrari) for an incredibly realistic racing experience.

Description

This 9:10 scale replica of the Ferrari 488 Challenge steering wheel measures 32cm in diameter and is designed for total immersion into the world of Ferrari motor racing. Made from polyurethane and the same Alcantara material used in genuine Ferrari steering wheels, the steering wheel features 15 integrated LEDs* and 2 rotary switches to optimize ease of use and gaming efficiency. Compatible with Thrustmaster's racing ecosystem on PC (Windows 10/8/7), the TS-PC RACER Ferrari 488 Challenge Edition offers various advanced Thrustmaster technologies, such as the Turbo Power external power supply, the Motor Cooling Embedded system and a 40-watt motor with excellent responsiveness providing enhanced force feedback.

A motor base that combines power and subtle performance 

To maximize their racing performance with the TS-PC RACER Ferrari 488 Challenge Edition steering wheel, virtual racers can rely on the many powerful features it has to offer:

• 40-watt brushless motor. The powerful motor generates precise effects and delivers incredible speed - from long locking corners (STALL mode) to super-fluid zigzags (DYNAMIC mode).  
• Embedded Motor Cooling System. Prevents overheating and optimizes noise-free operation (patent pending).
• Field Oriented Control (F.O.C.) algorithm. Ensures surgical precision without loss of power, even with intensive torque demands. The integrated algorithm dynamically optimizes the built-in H.E.A.R.T. (HallEffect AccuRate Technology) system and its 16-bit resolution (65,536 values).  
• Turbo Power Unit. This specially designed external power supply, incorporating a toroidal shaped body with a finless design, delivers an impressive 86% efficiency (with only 14% heat dissipation), plus a spectacular maximum power output of 400 watts!  
• Mixed gear and belt-pulley system. This system, together with a shaft mounted on metal bearings, provides extremely smooth and quiet operation.  

• Robust fastening system. The flywheel base is compatible with all mounting surfaces (desks, 'racing booths', etc.) to ensure stability when running. 

KEY POINTS

• Officially licensed by Ferrari for Windows, the TS-PC RACER Ferrari 488 Challenge Edition steering wheel is a 9:10 scale replica of the Ferrari 488 Challenge steering wheel and measures 32 cm in diameter.
• Featuring a brushless force feedback system, a 40 watt brushless servo motor with excellent responsiveness and the patent-pending Motor Cooling Embedded system, the motor is able to withstand intensive use over many hours of e-racing competition without fading.
• The steering wheel is designed for motorsport with its 15 integrated LEDs* for the RPM function and 2 rotary switches with push-button function. Its cover is hand-stitched and made of the same Alcantara material imported from Italy that is used on genuine Ferrari steering wheels.
• The Turbo Power external power supply features a toroidal finless design, which provides 86% efficiency (compared to 65% efficiency of standard finned power supplies).
