What if you could feel every thrilling detail of the racetrack without leaving your home, every bump, every turn, and every surge of acceleration? Sim racing has evolved from a casual pastime into a dynamic, immersive motorsport where precision is the difference between first and second place.
At Logitech G PLAY 2025, Logitech G unveiled its latest innovation: the RS50 Direct Drive Wheelbase with TRUEFORCE and RS Pedals. Designed to deliver unparalleled realism, control, and customization, this expansion of the modular Racing Series lineup is built to redefine what’s possible for racers of all skill levels.
“RS50 isn’t just hardware. It’s the beating heart of your SIM setup,” said Richard Neville, Senior Global Product Manager Simulation at Logitech G. “Whether you’re taking the Parabolica at Monza at top speed, or drifting in a rally stage, the level of torque, coupled with TRUEFORCE ensures you feel every detail in traction and every bump in the road. Combine that with the unrivaled control of the RS Pedals, and it transforms every race into an intense, emotional ride.”
Motorsport is more than technique, it’s an experience. The roar of the engine, the bite of the brakes, and the changing grip on hairpin turns, sim racing enthusiasts know the thrill comes from feeling truly connected to the car and the road. Logitech G’s RS50 brings you closer to that connection than ever before, capturing every nuance of the track through its powerful Direct Drive motor and advanced TRUEFORCE technology.
At the core of the RS50 Base is a direct-drive motor that delivers up to 8Nm of peak torque, the optimal power level set by expert drivers during our performance research. This motor is paired with TRUEFORCE technology that translates in-game physics into real-world forces with stunning precision, immersing you in every detail, from the grip of a worn-out tire to the tension of a high-speed turn. Complementing this power is a durable slip ring design, which offers up to 2700 degrees of rotation. This expansive range ensures the RS50 faithfully replicates the true feel of real-world steering dynamics, whether you’re racing on the track or cruising on the open road in an 18-wheeler.
Logitech’s TRUEFORCE technology pushes immersion further. Unlike traditional force feedback, TRUEFORCE internally processes real-time game data, such as road textures, engine vibrations, and even tire slippage, at up to 4,000 updates per second. The result? Every bump, drift, and skid becomes a tangible sensation that transforms your sim racing experience into something hyper-real.
No racing setup is complete without pedals that respond like the real thing, and the RS Pedals are engineered to deliver exactly that. Developed to work in perfect harmony with the RS50 Wheelbase, these racing-grade components offer a level of responsiveness that leaves no room for error, just performance.
Key Features Includes:
- 75kg Load Cell Brake Pedal: The load cell measures braking pressure rather than movement, replicating real-world braking feel for ultimate control.
- Hall Effect Accelerator: Durable and smooth, this pedal provides accurate and consistent throttle application for precision performance.
- Customizable Brake Feel: Adjust pedal movement and resistance with damper and spacer combinations. Use G HUB, the OLED screen (PRO/RS50), or the Racing Adapter dial (G29/G920/G923 on console) for personalized force settings.
- Adjustable Pedal Length: Extenders allow users to optimize stability for desk or rig setups, adapting to carpet (with attachable carpet grippers) or hard floor. They can also be set as wall bracers if setting the pedals against a wall, for added stability.
- Clutch Module (Optional): Step up your immersion with a separately available clutch add-on for manual gear shifting and tighter control.
“Our muscles respond more precisely to pressure than to movement,” said Suellio Almeida, Racing Driver. ”The RS Pedals deliver the kind of real-world braking modulation I expect from pro setups, and they bring that precision right to my home.”
From trail braking to pushing full throttle on the straightaway, every interaction with the RS Pedals feels second nature, giving racers of all levels the ability to chase their best laps with confidence.
One standout feature of the Racing Series is its modularity, making it adaptable for both new racers and seasoned pros. Whether you’re building your first racing cockpit or upgrading an existing G-Series setup, the RS50 and RS Pedals scale with your needs.
Starting Fresh? The RS50 System gives you everything you need: the RS50 Wheelbase, RS Round Wheel, RS Wheel Hub, and RS Table Clamp. Add the RS Pedals, plug it all in, and you’re ready to race.
Building on Your Gear? The Racing Adapter ensures seamless compatibility with Logitech G’s existing products, allowing you to integrate the RS50 with your current setup, including G-Series pedals (G25, G27, G29, G920, G923) and the Driving Force Shifter. Prefer to upgrade gradually? The adapter makes it easy to transition from your G-Series pedals to the RS Pedals, one component at a time, giving you flexibility to enhance your racing experience at your own pace.
Logitech G is innovating for performance, and we’re leading the way in durability and repairability. With a commitment to the right to repair, the RS50 Direct Drive Wheelbase is engineered to withstand millions of cycles. Components like the slip ring, a common point of wear, are designed for longevity, and in the rare case of failure, replacement parts are readily available to get you back on track quickly.
Sustainability is also at the heart of the RS50’s design. Crafted with low-carbon aluminum and 74% post-consumer recycled plastic (excluding wiring and packaging), the RS50 Base reduces environmental impact without compromising durability or performance. This means investing in racing hardware that’s good for you, and for the planet.
