Fanatec CSL Elite Pedals V2 Available

Back in 2018, the German Sim Racing peripheral manufacturer Fanatec introduced the Fanatec CSL Elite Pedals aimed at the midrange market. Fanatec applied the technology of the more expensive ClubSport series and concentrated purely on performance and durability rather than fancy materials or a perfect finish, resulting in a product with the same functionality but at a lower price.

Now Fanatec is back with the follow-up for the popular pedal set, introducing the CSL Elite Pedals V2, featuring overhauled load cell brake, Hall sensors on throttle and clutch, and many refinements to the design.

Both the throttle and brake axes use precision Hall-effect sensors. By measuring pedal position with magnets, the system is contactless, meaning no wear on the sensors and consistent performance.

The pedal arms, faces, and heel rest are made from cast and machined aluminum, with a durable powder-coated finish. Additional bracing towards the rear of the assembly provides extra stiffness and stability under heavy load.

The brake pedal has been completely reworked, with an all-new custom load cell sensor. The load cell sensor measures pressure rather than position. Tuned to a genuine 90 kg (adjustable) at the pedal plate, this realistic level of resistance trains your muscle memory and you’ll brake with confidence and precision every time.

The adjustable, tool-free elastomer stack incorporates a coil spring to simulate the initial movement of the brake pad to the disc. You can easily adjust the firmness of the pedal travel by selecting between elastomer springs (included).

CSL Elite Pedals V2 connects directly to any supported Fanatec Wheel Base via the included RJ12 cable. Alternatively, they can be used as a standalone USB device (on PC) using the included USB cable. The pedal position can be adjusted sideways along the heel rest, and it is easily configurable as a two-pedal set.

Detachable rubber pads on the pedal faces give you the choice between high or low friction. For example, you might prefer more grip on the brake pedal for applying very high forces, but a slick throttle to assist with smooth acceleration out of corners.

The amount of braking force required can be easily tweaked through the Fanatec Tuning Menu (or Fanatec Control Panel on PC)*. Manual calibration of all three pedal axes is also possible.

The Fanatec CSL Elite Pedals V2 are available via the official Fanatec Web Store for €299.95 + Shipping.
