The CSL DD QR2 connects its FluxBarrier motor straight to the steering shaft - no belts or gears in between. Every kerb strike, grip change and slide reaches your hands as the game engine produced it, which is the single biggest upgrade over gear- and belt-driven wheels.

This SKU ships with the Boost Kit 180, the 180W power supply that unlocks the motor's full 8Nm of peak torque out of the box. That is roughly triple the strength of a typical gear-driven wheel, enough for detailed, muscular force feedback in every racing title.

A contactless Hall position sensor - the same high-resolution technology used in Fanatec's flagship Podium Series - tracks the wheel with no physical wear. Combined with a carbon fibre composite motor shaft with low rotational mass, the base reacts instantly to quick direction changes.

The motorsport-derived QR2 Lite base-side comes fitted from the factory in carbon fibre-reinforced polyamide. Swapping between a GT rim and a formula-style wheel takes seconds, with a rock-solid connection once locked.

There is no cooling fan at all. The aluminium housing doubles as a passive heat sink and a core structural component, so the base stays cool through long stints while making zero noise of its own - all you hear is the racing.

USB-C handles the PC or console connection, while dedicated inputs take your pedals, handbrake and two sequential shifters, plus a Fanatec DataPort-C. Everything plugs into the base, so one cable carries your entire rig to the platform you race on.

On PC the base works with any Fanatec steering wheel. Attach an Xbox-licensed Fanatec wheel and it becomes fully compatible with Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S as well. Note that the CSL DD is not compatible with PlayStation consoles - that is the Gran Turismo DD Pro's role.
