- VPG Sim reveals Mission Sim steering wheel - Mission Sim is constructed from aluminium and carbon fibre, with 128 programmable inputs High-end steering wheel manufacturer VPG Sim teased an intriguing, sim-focused product ahead of SimRacing Expo Charlotte. The UK-based firm has previously specialised in creating racecar-grade steering wheels for home use, including its Porsche Cup wheel, which is designed and manufactured in the same factory as the one found in real Porsche 911 Cup GT3 (992) cars. Now, VPG has turned its attention to a sim racing steering wheel with a no-compromise approach, called ‘Mission Sim’. The Mission Sim, which will be available to sample at SimRacing Expo Charlotte, is a formula-style rim weighing 1.3 Kg and measuring 290mm wide. There are 128 programmable inputs and a four-inch VoCore screen featuring Gorilla glass with an anti-fingerprint and anti-glare coating. The wheel has eight Elma Electronic rotary switches in total (four thumb, four front), two funky switches, one 12-position multi-switch and four standard push buttons, replete with obligatory RGB LED lights. Its chassis is constructed mostly from aluminium, with a carbon fibre front plate. All switchgear is also aluminium, with CNC-machined polycarbonate button caps throughout. The Mission Sim will also be compatible with VPG’s Duo-Mod Paddles add-on, allowing three pairs of paddles to be used.
