The AdaptiveBeamTec Encoders show you at a glance what ABS & TC position is Off (Red), Dry (Yellow), Wet (Blue), and your current (Green) selected value — automatically switching profiles depending on the car you drive.

Car-Specific RevLights. Built In!

Every BavarianSimTec device equipped with RevLight features handcrafted, car-specific LED profiles. This ensures that the LEDs match the exact colors and activation timing of the real car, delivering a highly authentic driving experience. All lighting profiles are powered seamlessly through cloud-based telemetry via the PitStopApp — no manual imports needed.

The PitStopApp currently supports iRacing, Assetto Corsa Competizione, and Le Mans Ultimate — covering over 100 different cars.

Expand Your Inputs — MultiLink

The MultiLink combines the 8-position middle selector with the left-thumb encoder. Depending on the selected position of the middle selector, the thumb encoder outputs different signal values — providing 16 additional inputs using a single thumb encoder.

Plug & Play Ready Software — PitStopApp

The key difference between a BavarianSimTec wheel and other manufacturers' wheels is the uncompromising commitment to software. The PitStopApp makes operation easier, unlocks powerful features, and delivers a more seamless experience right out of the box.

FlagLights — Get signals directly on your wheel for yellow, blue, green or red flags.

Pit Limiter — Choose from multiple PitLimiter animations so you always know when your pit limiter is activated.

Encoder Animation — A dynamic flow animation visualizes encoder movement and rotation direction.
