Compared to its previous model, the F64-USB V2 features new 12-position switches which provide improved feedback, a closed shape and motorsport rubber grips.
- Improved grip ergonomics including slightly larger diameter, thinner lower section, different top shape to push top button
- Rubber grips:
- are not showing any tear
- offers much more grip
- perfect hardness (not too soft, not too hard) for much easier endurance racing without getting exhausted
- can be used without using gloves (also with sweaty hands)
- better hygienics
- new 12-position rotary knob
- better usability in “encoder mode” (rotational symmetry)
- much better feedback
64 Inputs
- 12 x push buttons with positive tactile feeling
- 2 x protective button guards
- 2 x multifunctional 7-way joysticks (4 directions / rotate clock- anticlockwise/ push button)
- 4 x encoders inc. push button functionality, aluminium knob
- 2 x 12-position rotary switches, aluminium knob
- 2 x paddle shifters

Magnetic Paddle Shifters
- cnc machined and anodized out of automotive aluminium
- strong snap-action force
- alternative magnets to reduce force included
- reliable automotive switch
Contactless Clutch Paddles
- cnc machined and anodized out of automotive aluminium
- contactless hall sensor
- smooth operation for maximum control
electronic bite-point calibration
- precise adjustments in 1.0 % and 0.1 % increments
- change bite-point via configuration tool or directly on the wheel rim:
push both joystick buttons for 1s to acces bite-point mode
LED lights up to indicate calibration mode
rotate left joystick for 1.0 % increments / right joystick for 0.1 % increments (LED flashes to indicate changes)
exit calibration mode by pushing both joysticks again for 1s
- recommended procedure for finding best setting:
enter calibration mode and set bite-point to high value, e.g. 80 %
pull slave clutch only
apply throttle
reduce bite-point in 1.0 % increments (left joystick) until vehicle starts moving
make test starts to fine tune desired bite-point setting
exit bite-point calibration mode
- recommended procedure for quick race starts
pull both master and slave clutches
apply throttle
race start -> let master clutch snap
it will take less than 20 ms to reach desired bite-point
slowly release slave clutch
