USA domestic shipping is 3-5 days. All international shipping is typically 5-7 days.

Double the performance at half the cost of other turnkey motion systems. Utilizing modern controllers with low total loop latency with no distracting effects or gimmicks.

The DK2 motion system is a pure motion system for serious sim-racing enthusiasts, drivers and researchers. The system shares the same design and construction as our industrial-grade DK-X motion systems used in our full motion vehicle and platform simulators. All our systems are mechanically and electrically engineered around our unique motion algorithms to provide the most realistic and pure representation of vehicle dynamics without relying on pre-recorded canned effects.

DK2 takes a modern approach to signal processing and motion control to create the most responsive system on the market. Every elevation change, vehicle movement, surface change and gear shift, is captured and reproduced within 2” (50mm) of the available mechanical stroke. (Full Send Video Proof)

  • have a 3-year electrical and 1-year mechanical system warranty
  • provide license free simple to use software with automatic over the air updates
  • years of maintenance free operation with no lubrication required
  • upgradable at any time in the future with our DK Upgrade Program

Additional Information

All DK systems require an available network port on your computer to connect to the DK motion controller via provided ethernet cable. A USB to network adapter may be used if a network port is unavailable. In our research we found network connections to provide more robust and reliable data transmission. In addition, ethernet is a well tested standard, offers longer custom cable lengths of up to 150-feet than standard USB and less signal interference.

All motion systems are built to order and ship once rigorously tested. All systems include a 1-year mechanical and 3-year electrical warranty from date of purchase.
