Heusinkveld RaceCenter pedals are a durable and reliable solution for commercial users who need maximum uptime of their simulators. With the main pedal parts constructed out of laser cut steel, oversized load cell sensors and overload protection on every pedal these are suited for high-frequency commercial use.
RaceCenter pedals also retain the key Heusinkveld feature of adjustability. The brake pedal force and resistance can be set from extremely soft to very hard, allowing you to create optimal settings for your specific use case.
The very compact form factor combined with the possibility to adjust the pedals angle from upright to slanted backwards, allow you to optimize the driving ergonomics for your preferred simulator build.
Proven Heusinkveld technology has been used to ensure long-term durability and reliability. Quality bearings and tight manufacturing tolerances on critical points such as pivots minimize wear and unnecessary play.
The EMC-tested electronics guarantee maximum compatibility with surrounding devices. The oversized load cell sensors are insensitive to dust and dirt and do not wear out, resulting in unmatched accuracy and durability over time. Every load cell sensor has a physical overload protection.
Throttle
Solid yet smooth, the RaceCenter throttle pedal gives your clients excellent control over their car. Fitted with a long pedal plate, clients will have no problem keeping their foot planted on the accelerator.
The throttle is fitted with an oversized loadcell which acts as a position sensor. The sensor is protected from abuse by a physical end stop and is unfazed by dust or dirt.
Brake
Designed to withstand frequent abuse, the RaceCenter brake features an oversized 200kg loadcell, resulting in a maximum actual pedal force of 70kg.
The Heusinkveld elastomers provide a realistic progressive brake feel. Clamped between newly designed cup spacers, these elastomers show absolute minimal wear even after thousands of hours of use.
Both the brake pedal resistance (4 settings) and required force (from appr. 15kg to 70kg) can be set up to your preference. You’ll be able to configure any brake pedal feel, ranging from easy-going road cars to thoroughbred race cars.
Clutch
The clutch pedal has been designed with a focus on reliability and provides a linear pedal feel. Identical in construction to the throttle pedal, it is fitted with an oversized loadcell which acts as a position sensor. The sensor is protected from abuse by a physical end stop and is unfazed by dust or dirt.
Electronics
The Heusinkveld RaceCenter pedals feature an external controller box which is supplied with every pedal set. The RaceCenter electronics platform has been tested to be compliant with all applicable European EMC-norms and regulations. This means that you can count on trouble-free operation, even in areas with high interference from other electronic devices.
Software
Heusinkveld RaceCenter pedals come with powerful configuration tools allowing you to set up your pedals in ways not previously possible: SmartControl & SmartControl Live. Working together with our own electronics platform, SmartControl allows for mapping of (non-linear) pedal output curves, pedal deadzones and brake pedal force.
Using SmartControl Live, adjustments to pedal settings can be made by the drivers themselves. Do you want to give a driver the option to swap between a 35kg brake pedal and a 70kg brake pedal with one push of a cockpit button? This is possible with Heusinkveld RaceCenter pedals.
Heusinkveld has extensive experience with supporting high-volume simulator builders and operators of sim centers. Although our products have proven themselves to be extremely reliable, no product will ever have an uptime of 100%.
In addition to the RaceCenter pedal product itself, we therefore offer the following additional components to support your operations. These can be either used for periodic maintenance or, in the rare case of a technical malfunction, serve as (drop-in) replacement:
- Spare elastomer kit.
- Spare parts kit.
- Spare pedals kit.
If you are considering an order of RaceCenter pedals for a larger project, feel free to send us an email at info@heusinkveld.com for a tailor made offer which includes pedal sets and additional support components.
