Heusinkveld lanceert Magshift shifter

Heusinkveld is een merk welke ondanks dat ze een vrij klein assortiment hebben toch een grote bekendheid geniet, iets wat ze te danken hebben aan het jaar in jaar uit leveren van hoge kwaliteit hardware en een uitstekende klantenservice.

Heusinkveld komt nu met een nieuwe shifter, de Magshift. Een sequentiële shifter welke volledig naar wens in te stellen is. Dankzij het gepatenteerde ontwerp is het bij de Magshift mogelijk om de benodigde kracht voor het up en downshiften onafhankelijk van elkaar in stellen. Zwaar bij upshifts, heel licht bij downshifts, Heusinkveld maakt het mogelijk met de Magshift (wij zijn alleen al fan vanwege de naam).

Heusinkveld MagShift

We’re proud to present you our NEW Heusinkveld product, the next generation sequential shifter: MagShift

Realistic forces, compact design. Upgrade your simulator with the most versatile sequential shifter available, packed with extra features!

Our brand-new MagShift is the perfect sequential shifter for rally cars, GT’s, touring cars and classic racing. Feel the gears click into place with the innovative magnetic shift system.

Innovative mechanics

The Heusinkveld MagShift is an innovative sequential shifter with a patented magnetic shift system. Upshift, downshift and overall force are all individually adjustable which makes MagShift the most versatile sequential shifter in the market. Do you want a firm upshift, soft downshift and medium overall force? That is all attainable with MagShift.

The innovative magnetic gear mechanism is integrated in a compact laser-cut steel design combined with black powder coated parts. MagShift lets you feel the gears click into place, just like in a real car. Shift detection is done by opto-electronic sensors which ensures there is no wear on the electronics.

State of the art electronics & software

MagShift is much more than just a sequential shifter. It has multiple extra features which enhance the driving experience. Integrated in the base of MagShift are 3 extra buttons which can be assigned to any function in-game.

Combined with Heusinkveld SmartControl software, customers are able to configure up to 10 fully customizable outputs using the gear lever and the 3 buttons. All settings can be saved into profiles and applied while driving. So your MagShift essentially offers a mini button box as extra functionality.

If you have other Heusinkveld products which use SmartControl, it is possible to create a single profile which includes multiple SmartControl compatible Heusinkveld devices. This allows you to change MagShift, Handbrake and pedal settings all at once.

And it is easy to install

Every MagShift comes with a mounting bracket and mounting materials, which makes installation onto for example aluminium profiles super easy. The mounting bracket allows you to fine-tune the overall height, tilt and yaw position of MagShift.

Depending on your preferences, the total height of MagShift ranges between 36,2 and 37,7cm (14,25 in – 14,81 in). MagShift is a narrow system, the installation width is only 6,75cm (2,66 in) and it can be mounted onto a single aluminium profile slot.

The system is plug-and-play, after connecting MagShift via USB you can immediately assign functions in your favourite simulator software.
