Fanatec Podium Advanced Paddle Module

Fanatec Podium Advanced Paddle Module

The Podium Advanced Paddle Module upgrades compatible Fanatec wheels with magnetic shifting, dual clutch paddles, and high-precision Hall-effect sensors for professional-level sim racing control.

Podium Advanced Paddle Module

Overview

The Podium Advanced Paddle Module is a high-end steering wheel upgrade designed to deliver advanced shifting performance, dual-clutch functionality, and precision input control. It combines magnetic paddle technology with Hall-effect sensors for durability and consistent racing performance.

Automotive Quality Construction

The module is built using premium motorsport-grade materials, including:

  • CNC-machined aluminium housing
  • 3 mm carbon fibre paddle plates
  • Magnetic actuation system
  • High-precision internal electronics

This construction ensures high rigidity, durability, and consistent tactile feedback under racing conditions.

Podium Specification Upgrade

The module is designed as an upgrade for compatible Fanatec steering wheels, including:

  • ClubSport Steering Wheel F1® 2018
  • ClubSport Steering Wheel Formula V2.5
  • ClubSport Universal Hub V2

It integrates seamlessly with existing Fanatec wheel systems.

Dual Clutch Functionality

The system includes dual analogue clutch paddles positioned behind the wheel.

Typical uses include:

  • Race start optimization (bite point control)
  • Launch control techniques
  • Handbrake assignment (optional configuration)
  • Throttle/brake simulation without pedals (advanced use cases)

This adds an additional layer of control for competitive driving.

Magnetic Paddle System

The shifter system uses magnetic actuation instead of traditional springs.

Key characteristics:

  • Fast, precise gear changes
  • Strong tactile “click” feedback
  • Reduced mechanical wear
  • Consistent long-term performance

Two paddle sets are included to support different wheel sizes and configurations.

Multiple Operating Modes

The module supports multiple input configurations (depending on wheel compatibility):

  • Clutch bite point mode
  • Clutch + handbrake mode
  • Brake + throttle mode
  • Fully mappable analogue axis mode

This allows flexible use across different racing disciplines.

Dual Magnetic Shifter Configuration

In addition to clutch functionality, the module provides:

  • Dual left/right magnetic shifters
  • Additional programmable inputs (e.g. DRS or auxiliary controls)
  • High accessibility positioning for competitive racing

Durability and Sensor Technology

The unit uses contactless Hall-effect sensors for long service life and precision.

Benefits include:

  • No physical wear on sensor components
  • Consistent input accuracy over time
  • High-resolution analogue detection
  • Stable calibration performance

Performance Characteristics

The module is designed to deliver:

  • Fast shifting response
  • High tactile feedback consistency
  • Improved driver control during high-speed racing
  • Reliable performance under long endurance sessions

Summary

The Podium Advanced Paddle Module is a premium steering wheel upgrade that adds magnetic shifting, dual clutch control, and advanced input configurability. Built with motorsport-grade materials and contactless sensors, it provides durability, precision, and high-performance control for competitive sim racing.
