CONSPIT - Ares APEX 8Nm Wheelbase

As the latest creation of the CONSPIT ARES Series, ARES APEX is not about simply “lowering the bar,” but about condensing the series’ core technologies and performance ambitions into a more compact design. With its refined form and an approach that brings players closer, APEX makes professional-grade direct drive truly accessible. Equipped with a motor purpose-built for sim racing and a force feedback system fine-tuned with the input of professional drivers, ARES APEX is dedicated to recreating the most authentic sense of immersion in every detail of the drive.

Precision Performance

• Asymmetric dual processors at 170MHz + 168MHz for high-speed, stable performance.
• 21-bit magnetic encoder for precise, high-resolution steering input detection.
• High-durability industrial-grade slip ring Built for long-lasting durability and reliability, ensuring stable, interference-free signal transmission. In combination with the USB-A Adapter Spacer, it enables seamless USB passthrough for any third-party wheel — eliminating the latency and interference issues of wireless solutions.

Optional USB-A Adapter Spacer · Breaking Barriers, Open Compatibility
The ARES Series offers an optional USB-A Adapter Spacer, designed to bring an open and efficient connection solution to the sim racing community.
With it, any USB wheel can plug directly into the front of the ARES base, utilizing the high-durability slip ring for lossless USB passthrough, without the need to route cables back to the PC.

• Wheel cables rotate together with the base shaft, completely eliminating drag and tangling
• Shortest connection path ensures more stable power delivery and data transmission
• Built-in USB Refresher keeps even SimHub-enabled wheels running smoothly

Pure Control Feel

• Professional-grade FFB: Co-developed with professional racing drivers and experienced vehicle dynamics engineers to ensure feedback that closely replicates real-world racing characteristics.
• Enhanced Response Technology: Fine-tuned torque response delivers both agility and precision, a maximum torque change rate of 4 Nm/ms faithfully reproducing real vehicle dynamics.
• Custom Motor Development: Purpose-built from the ground up for sim racing, the ARES APEX motor is optimized to reduce cogging torque and torque ripple, providing a smoother and more natural steering feel.

Philosophy of Authentic Feel
The core of ARES APEX’s force feedback tuning is realism and reliability.
Rather than simply chasing higher torque output, we built upon the actual structure of real racing steering systems, taking into account dynamics, friction, damping, and assist mechanisms.
In close collaboration with professional drivers and vehicle dynamics engineers, the APEX force feedback system has been repeatedly refined to ensure stable, high-quality output under varying loads and track conditions. It delivers authentic vehicle dynamics while avoiding cluttered or distorted feedback.
As a result, the ARES APEX provides a steering feel that is clean, balanced, and natural — allowing drivers to sense track details and vehicle behavior clearly, while staying focused on APEXes, braking points, and throttle control for a deeply immersive racing experience.
