MOZA R12 V1
First generation of the R12, the 12 Nm base offering a clear torque step over the R9 while staying manageable in size. It runs a slanted-pole 216 W servo motor, a 15-bit encoder (32,768 PPR) and an aerospace-grade aluminium chassis, with NextGen 4.0 support and iRacing at 360 Hz. It was replaced by the R12 V2, which improved thermal management and the encoder. In AMS2 it already had plenty of torque for GT3 and endurance.
