The Qubic System QS-210 is a high-end motion system designed to bring an ultra-realistic sim racing experience to home users. Manufactured in Poland by Motion Systems, it offers a more compact and streamlined version of their industrial-grade linear actuators found in the QS-220, while still delivering exceptional performance and immersion. It's particularly well-suited for popular aluminum profile-based cockpits due to its adaptable mounting brackets.
The QS-210 is highly modular and typically configured as a 3DOF (Degrees of Freedom) system with four actuators. It focuses on providing detailed haptic feedback, allowing sim racers to feel every nuance of the virtual track, from road textures and engine vibrations to acceleration, braking, and suspension movements.
Key Features:
-
Ultra-Realistic Motion: Delivers precise and immediate motion cues, including detailed motion textures, velocity, acceleration, and haptic feedback for a truly immersive experience.
-
High Performance: Features linear actuators with strong velocity and acceleration capabilities for quick and accurate responses to in-game events.
-
Low Latency: Boasts a latency of less than 8 ms, ensuring near-instantaneous feedback that is crucial for maintaining immersion, especially in VR, and preventing motion sickness.
-
High Control Frequency: Operates at a maximum control frequency of 1000 Hz, resulting in exceptionally smooth and responsive actuator movements.
-
Wide Vibration Range: Provides a vibration frequency range of 0-100 Hz, enabling the reproduction of subtle details like engine rumble, road surface changes, and individual wheel grip.
-
Compact & Quiet Design: Engineered for a smaller footprint and extremely quiet operation, making it suitable for home environments without causing disruption.
-
Modular & Expandable: While commonly a 3DOF system, it can be configured for 2DOF (e.g., with a QS-Pivot accessory for 2.5DOF) and potentially expanded to other configurations, demonstrating its versatility.
-
Qubic Manager Software: Comes with a free, comprehensive software application that offers advanced motion cueing algorithms, "washout filters," motion adjustments, post-processing, extensive diagnostics, and pre-defined profiles for various games. It's user-friendly for all skill levels.
-
VR HeadWay Technology: Includes motion compensation functionality for unwanted cockpit movements in VR, significantly enhancing immersion and reducing VR-induced nausea.
-
Extensive Game Compatibility: Supports over 80+ integrated racing and flight games, with continuous updates to ensure compatibility with new titles.
-
Professional Application Support: Offers Motion SDK (FSMI or FSDI) for software developers, allowing for integration with custom applications and professional simulations.
-
Easy Installation: Features new-generation, detachable connectors and adaptable mounting brackets for straightforward and secure installation, particularly with popular aluminum cockpits.
