BPS currently produces two different simulator models: The BPS 4.8 and the BPS 2.0.
- The BPS 4.8 features a seamless five metre curved screen which offers a 1:1 scale visual experience with a full 180 degree image.
- The simulator uses an F1 chassis to create an accurate cockpit seating position and driver immersion.
- Vehicle models are produced in-house at BPS and constantly refined to ensure accuracy and provide a very close match in relation to lap time and data overlays.
- Circuit models are also constantly refined to provide a precise track layout.
- The simulator runs a high torque, high response steering force feedback motor, able to produce a realistic steering torque up to GP2 levels.
- The steering wheel is manufactured by BPS. It has a full carbon shell, race proven paddle shifts, a functional shift light indicator and controls for various parts of the simulator.
- The pedal box provides accurate feedback with a realistic feel and response that is set for individual requirements.
