Bring QR2 to your Podium wheel base

Replace the base-side QR1 component with Type-M to use QR2-equipped steering wheels. This upgrades the connection on your existing Podium DD1, DD2 or Podium Racing Wheel F1 base without replacing the entire base.

If you use several wheels, plan a compatible QR2 wheel-side unit for each one. A wheel that retains QR1 cannot connect to the upgraded base.

A precise fit machined from one aluminium billet

The body is cut from a single billet of aviation-grade aluminium using 5-axis CNC machining. The tapered coupling surfaces help seat the steering wheel tightly on the base.

Precision manufacturing supports a stable mechanical connection that transfers force feedback from the base to the wheel.

Nickel-coated surfaces for convenient wheel changes

A 30 µm nickel coating improves surface durability and makes the quick release easier to detach. Low friction is useful when switching wheel designs to suit a different car.

Hot-swap support lets you change compatible wheels without restarting the simulator or wheel base. Installing the adapter itself requires the base to be switched off first.

Push the steering wheel into place

Align a wheel fitted with a compatible Wheel-Side unit and push it onto the adapter until it clicks into place. You do not need to pull the quick release sleeve while attaching the wheel.

Choose QR2 Wheel-Side, QR2 Pro Wheel-Side or QR2 Lite Wheel-Side to match your wheel. Mechanical compatibility alone does not remove the torque limits of the complete setup.

1. What is the Fanatec QR2 Base-Side (Type-M)?

It is the base-mounted part of the QR2 system. It upgrades compatible Podium bases and does not replace the quick release fitted to the steering wheel.

2. Which wheel bases accept Type-M?

Type-M fits the Podium Wheel Base DD1, Podium Wheel Base DD2 and the base from the Podium Racing Wheel F1. It is not a universal adapter for all Fanatec bases.

3. Does Type-M fit the CSL DD or Gran Turismo DD Pro?

No. Those bases use QR2 Base-Side Type-C for the upgrade. The different Base-Side types are not interchangeable.

4. Which quick release does the steering wheel need?

The wheel requires a compatible QR2 Wheel-Side, QR2 Pro Wheel-Side or QR2 Lite Wheel-Side. Select the version that fits your wheel model; none is included with this adapter.

5. Can I still use QR1 Wheel-Side after upgrading the base?

No. QR1 Wheel-Side cannot connect to a base fitted with QR2. Both sides must use the same quick release system.

6. Can every older Fanatec wheel be upgraded to QR2?

No. The wheel must have an exchangeable quick release. Models with a fixed QR1 cannot be converted this way; check the compatibility of your specific model.

7. What is the adapter made from?

The body is CNC-machined from a single billet of aviation-grade aluminium. Tapered contact surfaces and a 30 µm nickel coating combine a tight fit with easy detachment.

8. Do I have to restart when changing steering wheels?

No. Compatible wheels can be hot-swapped without restarting the wheel base or simulator. Installing the base-side adapter itself is a separate task and must be done with the base switched off.

9. How should I prepare to install Type-M?

Switch off the base and position it horizontally. Use the included 5 mm Allen key and follow the QR2 Base-Side Type-M installation guide, paying attention to the cables, connectors and clamp alignment.

10. How should I clean the quick release surfaces?

Use a dry, soft cloth. Do not use water, sprays or lubricants, and keep the mating surfaces clean.
