Add-on para palanca de cambios de carreras Heusinkveld HE-MAGSHIFT, plateado, carga máx. 11 kg

Heusinkveld HE-MAGSHIFT is a racing shifter add-on for flight and racing simulators, finished in silver and designed to provide a realistic sequential gear-shifting interface. The compact base houses a patented magnetic shift system that recreates the tactile click of a gear engaging while supporting a maximum lever force of up to 11 kg. The unit connects via USB and includes three extra buttons and a U-shaped mounting bracket for straightforward attachment to common simulator rigs.

Advantages

The magnetic shift system provides adjustable, reproducible shift feedback with three independent settings for overall force, upshift force and downshift force, allowing peak forces between approximately 4.5 and 11 kg. Opto-electronic sensors detect shifts without mechanical wear, ensuring long-term reliability and plug-and-play operation with most simulator software. The built-in mini button box and SmartControl compatibility enable advanced mapping: assign joystick buttons or keyboard keystrokes, create primary and secondary outputs, and configure delayed or simultaneous triggers for complex inputs. The included mounting hardware and U-bracket simplify installation on aluminium profiles and common rig platforms.

Suitable for

• Sim racing rigs that require a realistic GT-style sequential shifter
• Rally, touring car and GT simulator setups
• Users who want configurable shift force and programmable outputs
• Setups that need compact mounting with a narrow profile

Key specifications

• Finish: silver
• Maximum lever force: up to 11 kg
• Adjustable magnetic shift system: overall, upshift and downshift force
• Sensors: opto-electronic shift detection
• Connectivity: USB plug-and-play
• Extra controls: 3 integrated buttons in the base unit
• Software support: configurable with SmartControl and SmartControl Live (profiles and live switching)
• Mounting: U-shaped bracket with supplied bolts and T-nuts for common simulator platforms

How to use

Mount the HE-MAGSHIFT to your simulator rig using the supplied U-bracket and fasteners; when attaching to aluminium profiles the shifter can occupy a single slot. Connect the device to your PC via USB — the unit is detected as a gaming input device and can be assigned within your simulator software. Use the SmartControl software to create or load profiles, configure primary and secondary outputs, and adjust timing or delays for combined outputs. Set the magnetic system to the desired overall, upshift and downshift force to match the tactile feel you prefer for each car or driving style.

Recommendations

For consistent results, start with a medium magnetic force setting and test shift behavior in your simulator before increasing peak force. Create separate SmartControl profiles for different vehicle types (e.g., rally, GT, touring) and use SmartControl Live to switch profiles during a session. Periodically check mounting bolts and bracket alignment to maintain a narrow installation profile and avoid play in the lever assembly.
