CP-S SimSteering FFB System - 26nm
Adrian Quaife-Hobbs, our development specialist has driven in many race categories starting from Formula Renault right up to Formula 1 and more recently GT3 in Blancpain and has worked with simulators for many years so he was in a unique position to be able to give precise feedback on the feeling that should be experienced.
His experience and knowledge, along with the feedback from over 250+ pro drivers has resulted in what the CP-S SimSteering FFB System is today - the ultimate sim racing wheel base, trusted by hundreds of pro drivers.
Designed & built in the UK
Our simulators have a unique motorsport heritiage, designed and built by ex-formula drivers.
All our sims are hand built, tested, and configured in our UK workshop at Quaife engineering, Kent.
Assembled and ready to race
All our simulators prebuilt and turnkey so are fully built and tested before being sent.
Installation is easy and we provide simple instructions on how to install in your space.
Fully customisable
Want to make your simulator truly one of a kind? Head to our Bespoke Projects Department to customise every detail to your exact preferences.
Our team will work with you to bring your vision to life, creating a simulator that’s perfectly tailored to you.

Compatibility & Mounting
Plug and Play
The system may look complicated but it is in fact very easy to set up and use. Once the motor is mounted and all the cables are plugged in you can switch it on and use. No drivers or plugins are required. The system is a generic force feedback device working through DirectX so if a game outputs force feedback there is a very high probability that it will work straight away.
Modular System
The standard motorsport bolt patterns featured on our shaft clamp adaptor allows you to attach almost any steering wheel or adapt a steering column to fit.
Versatile Mounting
The compact servo motor is separated from the power/control box by two 2 metre cables allowing it to be mounted remotely at the end of a cockpit or frame with the box hidden away from view. We also provide an optional adjustable mounting bracket which may be suitable for certain applications. A 3d model of the motor is available in the Product Downloads tab to assist you in integrating the motor into your own mounting solution.

SimSteering2 control box with adjustments made via software on PC. Read more
Proprietery Software
-
A major problem with force feedback in general, is when you have the damping settings low, the feedback feeling is very good and raw in the corners but you suffer with oscillations and this is the . The proprietery software configuration on the CP-S Elite FFB System lets you run lower damping settings to get accurate feelings mid corner but not suffer the oscillations at high force feedback levels. This in turn improves the feel you get and also allows you to feel the smaller details like the road texture and smaller details that can be lost with high damping settings. Our proprietery software makes the force feedback system behave and react in a more realistic way than other force feedback system on the market. Read more

FAQs
Hydraulic or Load cell Sim racing pedals?
Hydraulic brake pedals are the preffered choice for pro drivers' racing simulators because they provide a more realistic and consistent feel compared to load pedals and force feedback pedals. Learn more directly from Oliver Norris about load cell vs hydraulic pedals here.
Do hydraulic racing sim pedals require maintainance?
The CP-S Bespoke Hydraulic Pedals for sim racing do not require any maintenance including the need for the the hydraulic system to be bled. Whilst some other hydraulic sim racing pedals may require this, Cool Performance pedals feature as much dedication to durability and build quality as they do to realism and authenticity.
What sim racing pedals do F1 drivers use?
F1 drivers like Lando Norris, Carlos sainz, Alex Albon, Logan Sargent and Mick Schumacher use the CP-S Bespoke Hydraulic Pedals for their true to life feeling that enables them to refine braking technique, study optimal braking points and build muscle memory for setting faster lap times on track.
What are the most realistic pedals for sim racing?
Hydraulic pedals are the most realistic to real life pedals for sim racing compared to load cell and force feedback pedals.
More Information
As far as sim racing pedal sets go, the Cool Performance CP-S Hydraulic sim racing pedals are widely regarded as the best sim racing pedals, by hundreds of professional drivers. Our sim pedal set is the number one choice for sim racers looking for optimal performance and realistic brake pressure feeling that load cell pedal sets do not provide. They can be configured for any driving style, with the option of the clutch pedal, extensive adjustability in the brake 'calliper' and mounting points. Having a pedal set for sim racing with a realistic feel is essential for building the muscle memory needed to hit corners consistently out on track, giving a competitive edge and enabling you to ultimately achieve faster lap times in a real world race car.
The Formula Pro F1 sim and GT Pro GT sim racing set up's come with the bespoke hydraulic sim racing pedals as standard and with our sport models you have the option to upgrade to this pedal set. This is what enables the pedal set to be used from any driving style, from F1, F2, F3, F4, all the way to GT, NASCAR, Rally, Drift and Road cars.
When it comes to building a sim rig, having the right set of pedals is one of the most important factors, for the most realistic sim racing experience.
Use by Pro Drivers
The Cool Performance 'Pro' model racing simulators that all of our professional drivers use all feature the CP-S Bespoke Hydraulic sim racing pedals. Drivers that use our sim racing pedals include 9 F1 drivers and 250 pro's such as Lando Norris, Alex Albon, Carlos Sainz, Jimmie Johnson and many many more in multiple racing categories which you can see here.
Compatible With Any Pedal Plate
Our sim racing pedals are compatible with any pedal plate that features the three holes as specified in our mounting documents in the tech specs. This makes them the perfect pedal upgrade for any sim racer looking to take their sim racing set up to the next level of true realism in the pedals, providing the a more realistic racing experience. They can be used for all racing simulation softwares and games on PC.
