Ascher Racing McLaren wheels

Ascher Racing’s latest sim racing wheel, the Artura Pro is the perfect example of the connection between real world Motorsport and Sim Racing. The McLaren Artura Pro is a sublime example of what’s possible with cutting edge manufacturing and collaboration across the racing industry.

Based on the very same wheel you’ll find in the GT4 specification McLaren Artura, the Artura pro sim steering wheel shares many of the same components as the real thing. The Artura GT4 represents McLaren Motorsport’s latest race car, designed to dominate various GT4 series competitions, featuring a lightweight carbon fibre chassis, cutting-edge aerodynamics, and a 585 bhp 3.0L V6 racing engine. Ascher Racing partnered with Renvale, experts in electronic design and custom wiring loom solutions for Motorsports, and McLaren, a name in racing that needs no introduction to produce their latest work of sim racing art.

The Artura Pro version shares the same materials and build quality as the Sport version, with a sleek black anodized brushed finish, precision-machined automotive-grade aluminium with the McLaren logo laser etched on the face plate.

McLaren Artura GT4 race car interior

A 300mm diameter wheel, with highly revised, ergonomic PVC / rubber grips, you have the best of both worlds. A wheel ready to go GT racing with the flexibility of a wheel that can be used for fast and furious Formula racing sessions too.

The aesthetics of the wheel are a testament to the engineering investment Ascher have put in to their newest product. The front plate has a brushed finish, while the paddle surfaces are glass bead blasted. Aesthetics lead to a nicely textured wheel that is as satisfying to look at as it is to hold.

On the back of the wheel, you’ll find Ascher Racing’s “Generation 6” Motorsport grade clutch and shift paddles. The 6th generation of magnetic double paddle shifter bodies are quiet, smooth and very intuitive to work with. Your muscle memory will soon adapt to the shift points and the clutch, which features “Individually adjustable resistance and precise bite-point calibration”. The adjustability and precision make this wheel very much a professional eSports product.

On the front of the Artura Pro, you’ll find:
– 14 x RGB illuminated, configurable momentary push buttons with laser labelled button caps (closely matching the Artura GT4 spec wheel)
– 4 thumb encoders located in the perfect location for intuitive, real time adjustments to settings in your black box
– 2 x 7-way joysticks
– 2 x 12 position front rotaries

Additional information: Artura SC versions vs. USB

There are two options for the Artura Pro, the SC version and the USB version. The SC version is Simucube wireless only, with an onboard 1200mAh rechargeable lithium battery.

The main differences lie in the advanced features of the USB version, such as animated backlighting and adjustable encoder pulse width. The SC version prioritises wireless connectivity and compatibility with Simucube wheelbases. The power supply and connection methods also vary between the two versions.

While there are differences, both the SC version and the USB version feature configurable button mapping, much like any other sim steering wheel.

SC vs USB

RGB Backlighting:
USB version: The USB version features animated, telemetry-supported lighting. Assign flags, deltas, spotters via SimHub.
SC version: Features static lighting, with brightness and color profiles controllable via the steering wheel.

Encoder Pulse Width Adjustability:
USB version: The encoder pulse width is adjustable, a setting that defines how long the button is triggered when depressed.

SC version: Encoder pulse width is not configurable

Power Supply:
USB version: Powered via USB, with no need for a separate PSU (low power consumption of only max. 500mA). Asetek owners can use the Asetek QR hub which powers the wheel without a cable.
SC version: Powered by a rechargeable 1200mAh lithium battery. Offers up to 30 hours of battery life with lights disabled.

Clutch Bite Point and Clutch Curve Calibration:
USB Version: Non-Linear curve calibration available. Clutch bite point calibration in 0.1% & 1.0% steps, analogue input mode selectable and quick calibration of the analogue clutch axes directly on the steering wheel.
SC Version: Bite point calibration in 0.1% and 1.0% steps & 12-pos rotary mode switch

What’s Included?

– Extra button caps

Q&A

Q: What are the main differences between the SC and USB versions of the Artura Pro wheel, and which one would be more suitable for my setup?
A: The SC version is Simucube compatible only. Despite there being feature differences between the USB version and the SC version, your choice will be influenced by device compatibility. It’s important to note that you can run the USB version with a Simucube wheelbase, although you’ll not have wireless compatibility.

Q: Is a quick release (QR) hub included with the wheel, or do I need to purchase one separately? What are the compatible QR hub options?
A: The Artura Pro wheel does not include a quick release (QR) hub. You’ll need to purchase a compatible QR hub separately. The wheel offers a 70mm PCD fitment, making it compatible with a variety of aftermarket QR hub options.

Q: How easy is it to customize the button mapping and adjust settings like the clutch bite point and encoder pulse width?
A: Customizing the button mapping and adjusting settings on the Artura Pro is a straightforward process. The wheel allows for configurable button mapping, and the USB version offers additional adjustability for the clutch bite point and encoder pulse width directly on the steering wheel.

Q: Can you explain more about the animated, telemetry-supported backlighting feature on the USB version and how it integrates with SimHub?
A: The USB version of the Artura Pro features animated, telemetry-supported backlighting that can be configured in SimHub. This allows you to assign flags, deltas, and spotter information to the wheel’s lighting, enhancing your immersion and providing crucial information in your peripheral view.
