ABOUT THE HANDBRAKE EngineeringHeusinkveld Handbrake offers performance and control. Using a force sensitive 120kg load cell the Handbrake is strong and can handle high forces.Built with high-quality materials, the Handbrake is designed to withstand rigorous use, offering long-lasting durability even under intense simracing conditions. Its solid construction ensures it remains stable and reliable during long simracing sessions. The design is compact, making it easy to mount it on your simulator.Adjustment OptionsThe Heusinkveld Handbrake features a wide range of mechanical adjustments. All adjustments enable you to fine-tune the handbrake to suit your driving style or the specific car you’re simulating. Perfect for those simracerg seeking a competitive edge.The Handbrake features: A 2-stage spring system provides resistance when pulling the lever An initial metal coil spring simulates the pad-to-disc gap and/or slack on the handbrake cable Elastomers, providing a unprecedented progressive brake feel The main loading on the brake is simulated by compressing the elastomers. These elastomers give an incredible brake feel. A total of 3 elastomers are provided inside the package. These 3 elastomers enable you to set a soft, medium or stiff handbrake feeling. Making sure you discover the brake feel you like the most to attack every corner.To change the position of the Handbrake, you can choose to change the lever. The lever can be set in a horizontal or vertical position. Per position there is a fine-tune adjustment up to 26 degrees to set the exact position of the lever.If you use the included optional adapter plate, you have up to 22,5 degrees of freedom to set the yaw of the handbrake. This can greatly enhance the ergonomics of your simulator, allowing you to pull the handbrake straight towards you from a multitude of mounting positions. For all the details regarding this adapter plate, check our manual. MountingHeusinkveld Handbrake can be mounted in 2 different ways: The first option is to use the 4 mounting holes on the base itself (2 on each side), which allow you to mount the handbrake to a flat surface The second option is to use the included optional adapter plate. This allows you to easily mount the handbrake to aluminium profiles (aluminium profiles not included). An added advantage is the yaw adjustment, allowing you to offset the yaw of the handbrake base up to 22,5 degrees. Making sure it fits ergonomically correct on your simulator. ElectronicsThe electronics of the handbrake are integrated inside the handbrake base. The system as a whole has passed EMC compliance testing, guaranteeing a stable output signal. A USB cable is supplied with every handbrake in order to connect it to your PC.The lever uses a 120kg load cell, resulting in up to 22kg of actual force measured at the lever. The measurement of the handbrake force is linear. Using Heusinkveld SmartControl software, you have complete freedom to set custom non-linear output curves.
