S – Professional Sim Racing Cockpit

Your entry into the Novus ecosystem. The Novus S Cockpit is a sim racing cockpit with VRS direct drive and load-cell pedals on the same X Cage chassis as our flagship systems. Professional sim racing performance at our most accessible price, with a clear upgrade path to Simucube components or full motion whenever you’re ready. Factory assembled and tested before shipping.

Original price was: €10,576.00.Current price is: €10,047.20. tax excluded

"You don't need to spend a fortune to start properly. What matters is a solid chassis, direct drive force feedback, and load-cell pedals. This sim racing cockpit has all three, and the chassis lasts longer than anything you'll bolt onto it."

Misha Charoudin

Professional Racing Driver

"If you're moving from a console wheel to direct drive for the first time, you want a platform you won't outgrow. The X Cage gives you that. Swap the peripherals over time, but the foundation is already professional."

Engineered to Elevate Every Ride

Direct Drive Performance. Room to Grow.

The Novus S Cockpit puts VRS DirectForce Pro and VRS Pro Pedals on a chassis built to outlast every component you'll ever mount on it.

X Cage Foundation: Aerospace grade aluminum, CNC-machined and laser welded by ŽustAl in Europe. Warranted for 50 years.

VRS DirectForce Pro: 15Nm direct drive wheelbase. Proven in competitive sim racing worldwide. You feel tire grip, weight transfer, and road texture through the steering wheel with zero belt slack.

VRS Pro Pedals: Load-cell braking for consistent, repeatable pedal input. The difference between hitting your braking point once in ten laps versus every single lap.

Motion-Ready: The X Cage accepts the X Motion Kit without modification. S Cockpit + X Motion Kit = Full Motion S. Your VRS components stay. The motion platform goes underneath.

Novus S Cockpit - Driver Reference

Buy Once, Upgrade Forever

The S Cockpit shares the same modular X Cage chassis as every Novus racing simulator. Start here, and nothing gets thrown away when you upgrade.

Move to a Simucube wheelbase for more torque or wireless technology, swap to Heusinkveld pedals, add a shifter and handbrake, or add motion when the time is right. The chassis carries forward for decades. You're only ever changing what's bolted on top.

Who the S Cockpit Is Built For

  • Console upgraders. Moving from Gran Turismo or Forza to PC sim racing with a professional racing simulator that won't need replacing in a year.
  • First-time direct drive buyers. A sim racing rig with real force feedback and load-cell braking, on a platform that grows with you.
  • Budget-conscious competitors. League racing, online championships, and driver training without the Simucube investment. VRS handles it.
  • Future motion planners. Start with a racing simulator cockpit that accepts full 3DOF motion later. Nothing modified, nothing wasted.

Frequently asked questions

Both are static sim racing cockpits on the same X Cage chassis. The RS Cockpit upgrades to Simucube 2 Sport (17Nm, wireless wheel support) and Heusinkveld Sprint load-cell pedals. The S Cockpit uses VRS DirectForce Pro (15Nm) and VRS Pro Pedals, strong direct drive performance at a lower price. Both are motion-ready for the same X Motion Kit upgrade. Choose the S if VRS meets your needs. Choose the RS if you want Simucube wireless technology and Heusinkveld pedal feel.

Console wheels (even the Gran Turismo DD Pro at 5Nm) are belt-driven or low-torque direct drive. The S Cockpit gives you 15Nm direct drive force feedback, load-cell braking, and access to PC sim titles with more realistic vehicle dynamics: iRacing, Assetto Corsa Competizione, rFactor 2. The X Cage chassis also means you won’t need another rig when you outgrow the peripherals. Console racing is fun. PC sim racing on a proper race car simulator is where real driving skills develop.

Yes. That’s the modular philosophy. Swap the VRS wheelbase for a Simucube 2 Sport or Pro. Add Simucube ActivePedal Pro for force feedback braking. Switch to Heusinkveld pedals. Add an MME shifter and handbrake. The chassis stays, you’re only changing peripherals.

Yes. The S Cockpit uses the same X Cage that every Novus motion sim is built on. Order the X Motion Kit, and we install it underneath your existing setup. Your VRS components, display, and seat all stay. S Cockpit + X Motion Kit = Full Motion S. The upgrade adds 120mm actuator stroke and 3DOF motion without touching your peripherals.

The PC ships with Windows 11 Pro and popular sim titles pre-installed. All drivers and software are configured and tested before shipping. The Level 1 gaming PC handles all current racing simulators at high settings: iRacing, Assetto Corsa Competizione, rFactor 2, Automobilista 2, and the F1 series.

None. We build and test the S Cockpit at our facility before it ships. The complete sim racing setup arrives fully assembled in a protective crate. Mount the display (tools included), plug in power, and you’re racing. About 10 minutes.
