Fanatec Gran Turismo DD Pro
The same CSL DD hardware officially licensed for PlayStation (and the official base of Gran Turismo). 5 Nm peak, 8 Nm with the Boost Kit 180. The way into Direct Drive on PS5/PS4.
Fanatec Gran Turismo DD ProMOZA R9 V3
The R9 V3 is the most recent iteration of MOZA’s 9 Nm base. It keeps the torque, 180 W power and compact form factor, but raises the encoder to 21-bit (2,097,152 PPR) for an even finer position signal, and combines wireless and wired connection in the Quick Release. It is one of the most balanced lower-mid-range bases on the market: notable FFB detail, aviation-grade aluminium build and modest consumption. In Automobilista 2 it is a highly recommendable choice for GT3/GT4, touring cars and single-seaters, comfortably covering most drivers who aren’t after the extreme torque of top-tier bases.
