Direct Axial Drive Motor
With an axial flux motor, Direct Axial Drive represents the next generation of direct drive motors for sim racing. It is capable of producing a perfect, crystal-clear movement of the steering wheel without any notchiness. The result: absolutely authentic force feedback and clearer effects. Feel every detail immediately, with greater precision and intensity.
The Feeling of the Future
The constant torque of 5 Nm features an overshoot capability of +100%, significantly enhancing performance and providing outstanding effects with an extremely low latency of 5 ms. The HARMONY technology generates high-frequency vibrations to feel the entire physics of the game in the smallest detail. Rumble strips and squealing tires have never felt so immersive.
Race Dash Display
Adjust your settings and save your profiles directly through the Race Dash display. More than 10 settings are configurable, including the innovative GEAR JOLT, which allows you to feel the gear shifts on the steering wheel. In-game, the Race Dash displays more than 10 racing information such as speed, best time, position, or race flags.
Removable Sports Car Steering Wheel
The sporty and versatile design of the 30 cm steering wheel with rubber grip areas adapts to any simulation style. Its Mag-Shift paddle shifters with clear, precise activation emphasize the sporty character of the driving style. With the multifunctional encoder, you can freely assign 12 additional game actions, keeping your favorite functions always within reach. Thanks to its extremely low weight (811 g), you will feel the full power of the motor!
Scalable Metal Pedal Set
The Raceline Pedals LTE (Long Term Evolution) feature 2 pedals with H.E.A.R.T. sensors, providing the highest accuracy and durability. The stiffness of the pedals can be individually adjusted using the included springs and the 3 adjustment notches behind each pedal. The non-slip pads stabilize the pedal set on the floor. The pedal set can be upgraded with a third load cell pedal using the Raceline Pedals Upgrade Kit.
A Comprehensive Ecosystem
With the T598, you open up the Thrustmaster ecosystem, one of the most comprehensive on the market. The removable SPORTCAR steering wheel can be replaced with one of the many existing and future Thrustmaster Wheel Add-On models in Formula, GT, and Rally styles. Add a shifter or a handbrake for even more realism and driving feel.
