23-bit Optical Encoder Precision

At the core of the ARES 12Nm is a 23-bit high-resolution optical encoder, delivering extremely accurate steering position detection with superior consistency over time. Compared to magnetic encoders of similar resolution, optical encoders provide higher accuracy, smoother feedback, and improved long-term reliability.

This enables the wheelbase to capture fine steering inputs and micro-corrections with exceptional clarity, particularly important in high-speed and high-downforce racing scenarios.

Skew-Pole Direct Drive Motor Architecture

Unlike off-the-shelf industrial servo motors, the ARES motor is a proprietary skew-pole direct drive design developed specifically for sim racing. Both the stator and rotor utilize a dual skewed pole structure to significantly reduce torque ripple, electromagnetic vibration, and noise.

This design achieves:

• Ultra-smooth force feedback output
• Minimal cogging torque (under 2.3%)
• Excellent NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) performance
• Highly stable steering feel under load

---

Advanced Force Feedback Dynamics

The ARES platform features an advanced motor control system capable of extremely fast torque response. With a high torque slew rate, the wheelbase accurately reproduces rapid force changes such as kerb strikes, surface transitions, and tyre load variations.

This results in a force feedback experience that is both highly detailed and predictable—allowing drivers to extract more information from the car without excessive harshness.

Thermal Stability & Reliability

Real-time, high-frequency temperature monitoring ensures stable operation of both the motor and control electronics. The CNC-machined aluminum housing is designed for effective heat dissipation, maintaining consistent performance during long racing sessions and endurance events.

---

Industrial-Grade Torque Validation

CONSPIT employs precision, industry-grade torque testing during development to validate actual torque output at the steering wheel. Using high-precision dynamic torque sensors with sub-0.01Nm resolution, real-world torque delivery is measured and optimized to ensure accuracy and consistency.

This approach ensures that the ARES 12Nm delivers genuine, usable torque rather than theoretical or inflated figures.
