Its time for a new detailed review by the Sim Racing Garage. In his latest video, Barry Rowland takes an in-depth look at the recently released QRX Quick Release by Cube Controls.
Cube Controls SRLS is based in Italy and is a manufacturer of state-of-the-art sim racing equipment for both the professional and sim racing enthusiast market.
The Italian manufacturer has already made a name for itself by producing a series of stunning high-end modern Formula and GT wheels, including the recently introduced Cube Controls GT-X rim.
However, in order to be functional and swappable, a steering wheel needs to be connected to the wheelbase. Ideally, this should be done via a quick-release system, and even better so, the wheel electronics should be easy to connect when switching wheel rims.
Cube Controls already offered a Universal Quick Release solution that was more than capable of doing the job. However, they have now introduced the QRX witch is a new self-centering Quick Release system compatible with any 50.8 / 70mm wheel. Most importantly, the QRX features an integrated USB electrical connector, so that all of the wheel electronics, become plug & play, without the need for a connection cable between the rim and the wheelbase.
The QRX Quick Release is available via the Cube Controls webstore for €249.00 Incl. VAT + Shipping
