Quick Guide
The VelocityOne Race system requires a specific setup sequence to ensure proper functionality. First, mount the wheelbase to your desk or rig. Attach the VelocityOne Control Unit (VCU) to the side of the wheelbase, then attach the Race Wheel Module. Connect the cables to your console or PC, power on the system, and select your platform using the E2 wheel. Finally, use the VelocityOne Tuner app to customize settings and keep firmware updated.

Mounting the System
The wheelbase can be mounted in two ways:

- Hard Mounting: Use the provided M5 screws to secure the wheelbase and pedal unit to a racing rig or frame.
Attaching the VCU and Wheel
For ease of assembly, attach the VCU before the wheel module:
