ABOUT

 

Breathtaking realism and performance, incredible­ immersion and precision, superb technology, engineering and manufacturing…introducing the Next Level Racing® Traction Plus Motion Platform.

 

The Traction Plus is truly a world class product designed to finally close that gap between the track/tarmac and simulation with a product and experience like no other motion simulator before it. The sliding concept and technology has only ever been seen before in the highest level professional race teams often with budgets in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

 

The Traction Plus was designed and developed in collaboration with a world class motion engineering team to deliver an unrivalled motion experience. To achieve the ultimate realism and precision this has required completely unique technology and engineering with a product designed from ground up over 4 years that includes over 2000 components. The platform has been designed and developed purely for simulation rather than just using commercial actuators and adapting to simulation. The Traction Plus is incredibly more than just a rear traction loss system and designed to combine with the V3 motion platform to provide a ground breaking motion simulator experience.

PROVIDING VEHICLE FEEDBACK WITH PRECISION

 

The Traction Plus moves the whole cockpit and delivers both understeer and oversteer in the most realistic and precise way possible.

 

Based on feedback from professional drivers during product development the understeer component of a motion platform which is usually only found in 6DOF systems is absolutely critical in accurately and precisely simulating the vehicle. Feeling both understeer and oversteer the platform can be used effectively for driver/racer training particularly for cornering and rally, feeling what is happening with both rear and front of the vehicle. Even the differences between rear wheel drive, front wheel drive and all-wheel drive vehicles can be felt with the precise feedback delivered through the Traction Plus platform. The Motion Platform V3 and Traction Plus combine to provide accurate vehicle feedback for front wheel lock up meaning you will feel vibration as well as front of the vehicle sliding out of the corner when too much brake pressure is applied. (also applicable for rear wheel lock up depending on vehicle bias).

 

The Traction Plus combined with the Next Level Racing® Motion Platform V3 provides incredible levels of vehicle feedback to the driver to feel exactly what the vehicle is doing by precisely delivering sway, surge, roll, pitch, understeer and front traction loss (critical feature usually only experience in 6dof motion platforms), oversteer and rear traction loss, power slides and drifting, partial heave, vehicle and road effects such as road surface, bumps, wheel lock/spin, gear changes etc and shunting effects (to feel side impact contact from opponents/wall).

INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY

 

The design, engineering and technology of the Traction Plus is completely ground breaking and you will expect the same level of quality and durability with this product as found with the Motion Platform V3. Designed and manufactured completely in Europe and powered by MotionSystems, the Traction Plus platform is a world class product. Also keeping the home user in mind, painstaking engineering has been performed to not only set a benchmark in performance but also make sure the Traction Plus (like the Motion Platform V3) is the quietest motion platform in its class with the smallest footprint possible.

TAKE IT TO THE SKIES

 

As with the Motion Platform V3 that’s had professional aviators including: airline, private, military, and flight training institutions and universities, the Traction Plus can add further realism by allowing the pilot to experience the flight characteristics of the aircraft more realistically.

 

The Pitch and Roll axis simulation from the Motion Platform V3 is augmented with the Traction Plus to provide the third axis of Yaw to generate an incredibly genuine sensation of flight.The simulator also replicates the motions of landing gear operation, combat/cannon fire, ground movement, turbulence, and crosswind effects and can be paired with augmented reality/VR to create an unparalleled level or realism. Smoother rudder operation can be trained effectively with the combination of yaw and pivot. Whether it be for fun, training, or for professional development, the Traction Plus will surely be an important instrument for any aviators journey.

CLICK AND PLAY SOFTWARE

 

The Traction Plus comes complete with click and play Next Level Racing® Platform manager software specifically made for the V3 and Traction Plus platforms using telemetry data to give the most realistic and accurate profile cues. This is professional grade software developed by world leading motion engineers ensuring absolute precision in delivering feedback from the game, without lag, in real time. Whilst being professional software it’s designed to be used by a even a novice with simple to use dashboard to start your game and being able to change all settings at a click of a button. For those users that do like getting more hands on with each setting the profiles for the platform are highly customisable. Having strong relationships with software developers that are behind racing and flight titles this allows constant updates and compatible titles being added to the Next Level Racing® Platform manager as new games are released.

DEVELOPED AND ENGINEERED PURELY FOR SIMULATION

 

Both the Traction Plus and Motion Platform V3 have been designed, engineered and manufactured to give the most realistic, immersive and accurate simulation experience and together deliver a new benchmark in motion simulation experience. These are not just another actuator solution that have simply adapted actuators to be used for simulation. These are both products designed, engineered and manufactured from ground up purely for advanced simulation and professional applications being able to precisely deliver feedback to the driver or pilot.

VR AND COMMERCIAL USE

 

The Next Level Racing® Traction Plus platform combined with VR is simply an incredible experience for both racing, flight or even amusement software for Rollercoasters or speedboats! Some of our favourite titles include Assetto Corsa®, Dirt Rally®, iRacing®, Project Cars® and Xplane®. For VR companies developing their own software, SDK is available at an extra cost. The SDK allows 3rd party software integration and adding motion for customised VR projects. For more information on SDK please contact us at support@nextlevelracing.com.

added another level of realism and fun to the simulator

the traction plus has added another level of realism and fun to the simulator. We’ve had a few blokes days at the manshed and all the mates are gobsmacked at how good the simulator is and I seem to have friends coming out of the woodwork lately.lol
