The Dutch Heusinkveld company introduced the all-new Heusinkveld MagShift sequential shifter.
The high-end MagShift features a patented magnetic shift system that lets the user individually adjust the upshift, downshift, and overall force. The Shift detection is done by opto-electronic sensors which ensures there is no wear on the electronics.
The innovative magnetic gear mechanism is integrated into a compact laser-cut steel design combined with black powder-coated parts.
The MagShift has multiple extra features such as 3 integrated Push Buttons which can be assigned to any in-game function. Combined with Heusinkveld SmartControl software, customers are able to configure up to 10 fully customizable outputs using the gear lever and the 3 buttons. All settings can be saved into profiles and applied while driving.
For users who have other Heusinkveld products that use SmartControl, it is possible to create a single profile that includes multiple SmartControl-compatible Heusinkveld devices. This allows you to change MagShift, Handbrake, and pedal settings all at once.
Every MagShift comes with a mounting bracket and mounting materials, which makes installation onto for example aluminum profiles super easy. The mounting bracket allows you to fine-tune the overall height, tilt, and yaw position of MagShift.
Depending on your preferences, the total height of MagShift ranges between 36,2 and 37,7cm (14,25 in – 14,81 in). MagShift is a narrow system, the installation width is only 6,75cm (2,66 in) and it can be mounted onto a single aluminum profile slot.
The system is plug-and-play, after connecting MagShift via USB you can immediately assign functions to your favorite simulator software.
