The Challenge - Mixing Ecosystems

You own a high-performance Fanatec or Thrustmaster wheelbase—the core of a powerful sim racing setup. You love its force feedback and reliability. However, you also have, or desire, a set of elite third-party pedals from renowned specialists like Heusinkveld, Simagic, or Conspit.

The question every serious racer eventually asks is: How can I make them work together?

While manufacturers like Fanatec create a world-class ecosystem, connecting external peripherals can present a challenge, especially for console racers. In this guide, we'll explore the methods available, from the standard PC approach to a more advanced, comprehensive solution.

For PC racers - Multiple USB Devices

On a personal computer, the solution is straightforward. Your Fanatec wheelbase connects via its own USB port, and your third-party pedals connect via their separate USB port.

Modern PC racing simulators like iRacing and Assetto Corsa allow you to connect your wheelbase and pedals as separate USB devices. You can then simply go into the game's settings and assign each axis—like steering, throttle, and brake to the correct hardware.

• This works reliably for PC-only racers.
• However, this method has a critical limitation: It is not compatible with gaming consoles (PlayStation® or Xbox). Console games require all inputs to be routed through the wheelbase itself to be recognized.

For Console racers - A Dedicated Pedal Adapter

For racers seeking the most direct, cost-effective, and versatile solution, a dedicated pedal adapter is the definitive choice

An intelligent adapter, such as ours, is engineered to do the job perfectly, translate the signal from your high-end pedals directly into a format your Fanatec wheelbase understands natively.

Why this is the superior approach:

• True Plug-and-Play Console Compatibility: This is the core advantage. The adapter makes your third-party pedals appear as a native Fanatec pedal set, unlocking flawless performance on PS5 for games like Gran Turismo 7.
• Broader Compatibility: While the official method works, our solution is purpose-built to be compatible with a huge range of pedals from Simagic, Heusinkveld, Conspit, and more.
• Advanced Tuning Features: Our adapter goes beyond simple compatibility, offering features like custom curve mapping to eliminate the GT7 throttle issue—a level of control not available through other methods.

Try our solution and unlock the true potential of your rig！

Our pedal adapter is more than just a piece of hardware, it's the key to bridging an unnecessary gap. It's the most direct, cost-effective, and feature-rich way to achieve the flawless compatibility you deserve.

Stop compromising. Start racing with the gear you love.
