Sim racing continues to grow beyond a niche hobby, with more enthusiasts investing in dedicated hardware that replicates real-world motorsport experiences. Riding on that momentum, Logitech G<\/a> has introduced its latest Racing Series products in the Philippines, headlined by the new RS50 Direct Drive Wheelbase, RS Pedals, and RS H-Shifter.<\/p>\n

Unveiled during Logitech G PLAY 2025, the new lineup focuses on delivering greater realism, stronger force feedback, and more customization for sim racers across different skill levels. The launch also expands Logitech G\u2019s<\/a> modular racing ecosystem, allowing users to build or upgrade their setups over time.<\/p>\n

RS50 Brings Direct Drive Performance and TRUEFORCE Technology<\/h4>\n

At the center of the new lineup is the Logitech G RS50 Direct Drive Wheelbase, designed to provide a more immersive racing experience through a direct-drive motor capable of delivering up to 8Nm of peak torque.<\/p>\n

Unlike gear-driven or belt-driven systems, direct-drive technology connects the steering wheel directly to the motor, allowing for more accurate force feedback and faster response times. This setup helps racers feel subtle details such as weight transfer, tire grip changes, and track surface variations.<\/p>\n

The RS50 also incorporates Logitech G\u2019s TRUEFORCE technology, which processes in-game physics and audio data in real time.<\/p>\n

Key RS50 features include up to 8Nm peak torque, the TRUEFORCE force feedback system, up to 2,700 degrees of wheel rotation, direct-drive motor architecture, and modular compatibility with the Logitech<\/a> Racing Series ecosystem.<\/p>\n

According to Logitech G, TRUEFORCE can process game telemetry at up to 4,000 times per second, providing more detailed feedback compared to traditional force feedback systems.<\/p>\n

RS Pedals Focus on Precision Braking<\/h4>\n

Complementing the wheelbase is the new Logitech G RS Pedals set, which is designed to replicate the feel of real-world racing controls.<\/p>\n

Its standout feature is a 75kg load cell brake pedal that measures braking pressure rather than pedal travel. This approach mirrors professional racing setups and allows for more consistent and precise braking inputs.<\/p>\n

Other features include a 75kg load cell brake pedal, a Hall Effect accelerator pedal, adjustable brake resistance, configurable pedal positions, and an optional clutch module for manual transmission setups.<\/p>\n

The pedals can also be customized through Logitech G HUB and supported hardware controls, allowing users to tailor brake feel and sensitivity to their individual preferences.<\/p>\n

Logitech G Adds New RS H-Shifter<\/h4>\n

Logitech G also introduced the Logitech G RS H-Shifter, a standalone manual shifter designed for users who prefer traditional gear changes in racing simulations.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The shifter features a seven-speed plus reverse layout and uses Hall Effect sensors to reduce wear while maintaining long-term accuracy and consistent performance.<\/p>\n

Notable features include a 7-speed plus reverse shifting pattern, push-through lockout for reverse and seventh gear, aluminum and steel construction, Hall Effect contactless sensors, and support for customizable M8-thread gear knobs.<\/p>\n

The addition of the Logitech G RS H-Shifter further expands the Logitech G Racing Series ecosystem, particularly for rally, drifting, and touring car enthusiasts who prefer the engagement and control of manual gearboxes.<\/p>\n

Built Around Modularity and Longevity<\/h4>\n

One of Logitech G\u2019s key focuses with the Racing Series remains modularity.<\/p>\n

Users can start with the RS50 Wheelbase and gradually add accessories such as pedals, shifters, alternate steering wheels, or other ecosystem components. This approach allows sim racers to build setups that fit both their budgets and performance needs.<\/p>\n

The company also highlighted repairability and sustainability efforts. The RS50 is designed with replaceable components, including wear-prone parts such as the slip ring system. Logitech G says replacement parts will be available to help extend product lifespan.<\/p>\n

The wheelbase also incorporates low-carbon aluminum and recycled plastics as part of the company’s broader sustainability initiatives.<\/p>\n

Pricing and Availability in the Philippines<\/h4>\n

The Logitech G RS50 Direct Drive Wheelbase Racing System is now available in the Philippines. The RS50 Direct Drive Wheelbase System is priced at \u20b145,995, the Logitech G RS Pedals at \u20b19,995, and the Logitech G RS H-Shifter also at \u20b19,995.<\/p>\n

The lineup is available through Logitech G\u2019s official Shopee and Lazada stores, as well as authorized retail partners nationwide.<\/p>\n

As competition in the sim racing hardware market continues to intensify, Logitech G\u2019s latest Racing Series aims to offer enthusiasts a more accessible path to direct-drive performance, advanced force feedback, and professional-grade control systems without stepping into the ultra-premium segment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
