MOZA R5 Pro Racing Bundle
The MOZA R5 Pro Racing Bundle is the next-generation entry point into MOZA Racing's direct drive ecosystem. It replaces the original R5 bundle with a significantly upgraded wheelbase, bringing 6Nm of direct drive torque, a 21-bit magnetic encoder, and a new 600MHz processor alongside the new SRP Lite 2 pedals. The bundle includes everything needed to start sim racing from a desk without additional hardware: the R5 Pro wheelbase, ES steering wheel, SRP Lite 2 pedals, and a table clamp.
The headline upgrade from the original R5 is the encoder. Where the R5 used a 15-bit encoder producing 32,768 PPR of resolution, the R5 Pro uses a 21-bit encoder delivering 2,097,152 PPR. That is a 64-fold increase in the precision with which the wheelbase reads your steering input, and it translates directly into more granular, detailed force feedback. Combined with 6Nm of torque (up from 5.5Nm), NexGen Force Feedback Algorithm 4.0, and a 600MHz processor, the R5 Pro delivers a measurably more detailed and responsive sim racing experience than the hardware it replaces.
For drivers currently on a gear or belt-driven wheel — a Logitech G29, Thrustmaster T300, or similar — the R5 Pro is the natural upgrade destination. The move to direct drive removes the mechanical intermediaries between the motor and the steering shaft, eliminating the latency and blurring that prevent belt and gear systems from communicating fine force feedback detail. The R5 Pro does this at a desk-compatible price and footprint, with a full MOZA Racing upgrade path available across wheels, pedals, shifters, and handbrakes when you are ready to build further.

How the MOZA R5 Pro compares to other entry-level sim racing setups
Gear and belt-driven sim racing wheels introduce a mechanical layer between the motor and the steering shaft. That layer absorbs and delays force feedback signals before they reach your hands, blurring what the car is communicating through the wheel. At the entry-level price point, this has historically been the accepted tradeoff — direct drive was expensive, and gear or belt systems were what most new sim racers started with. The R5 Pro changes that equation by bringing a genuine direct drive motor to the price range where most newcomers are shopping.
Direct drive removes the gears and belts entirely. The motor connects directly to the shaft, meaning force feedback signals arrive faster, cleaner, and with more detail than any gear or belt system can manage at the same torque setting. The R5 Pro's 21-bit encoder amplifies this advantage further, capturing 2,097,152 points of steering position data per revolution. For context, a 15-bit encoder captures 32,768. The additional resolution means the R5 Pro can communicate fine details — the progressive onset of traction loss, the texture change at a painted kerb, the weight transfer through a long corner — that the original R5 could not resolve as precisely. Drivers who want more torque beyond the 6Nm the R5 Pro delivers can upgrade to the MOZA R9 V3 within the same ecosystem.
6Nm direct drive torque: what you actually feel
Six Nm of direct drive torque is enough force feedback to feel the onset of traction loss at a corner apex, the snap of oversteer on a wet surface, and the progressive weight loading through a long high-speed curve. It is also manageable for a first direct drive user — high enough to be genuinely informative, but not so high that it becomes fatiguing or unsafe on a standard desk or entry-level wheel stand.
The torque is delivered without mechanical intermediary through a 600MHz processor and NexGen 4.0 algorithm. Four pre-configured driving mode presets — GT, Formula, Drift, and Rally — provide starting points for different car types and disciplines, each tuned to match the steering characteristics of that vehicle class. All settings are adjustable through MOZA Pit House, which controls FFB intensity, curve shape, damping, and inertia alongside button mapping, pedal curves, and LED profiles from a single interface.
21-bit encoder precision: the upgrade that changes force feedback detail
The encoder in a direct drive wheelbase determines how many points of data the system can read per revolution of the steering shaft. More data points mean finer steering inputs are captured and more detailed force feedback signals can be generated in return. The original R5 used a 15-bit encoder reading 32,768 PPR. The R5 Pro's 21-bit encoder reads 2,097,152 PPR — the same specification used in MOZA's higher-end R12 V2 and R16 V2 wheelbases.
In practice this means the R5 Pro communicates road surface detail, suspension behaviour, and tyre dynamics at a resolution that was not available at this price tier before. Small inputs, like a wheel that wants to run wide on corner exit, or the steering beginning to lighten as the front tyres start to slide, arrive with more clarity and earlier than a 15-bit system allows. The 21-bit encoder is the single biggest technical leap from the original R5, and it is the reason the R5 Pro represents a meaningful upgrade rather than a minor revision.
ES wheel, SRP Lite 2 pedals, and table clamp
The ES steering wheel included in the R5 Pro bundle is a 280mm motorsport-inspired formula wheel with an aluminium alloy frame, microfiber leather grip, and 22 programmable inputs. Ten RGB LED lamp beads along the top of the wheel provide a configurable RPM shift indicator strip, with all LED settings managed through MOZA Pit House. Intelligent telemetry is supported, and the wheel connects via MOZA's wireless quick release system, allowing it to be swapped for any other MOZA wheel rim without cabling.
The SRP Lite 2 pedals are MOZA's new entry-level pedal set designed to pair with the R5 Pro. Full specifications for the SRP Lite 2 will be confirmed at launch — details on sensor type, adjustability, and compatibility will be added here when available. The included table clamp supports desks up to 50mm thick and handles the R5 Pro's torque output, making the bundle fully usable without a dedicated cockpit or wheel stand. For a permanent rig installation, the R5 Pro wheelbase includes four-hole bottom mounting compatible with most major sim racing cockpit brands.
Our expert take
"If you're new to sim racing and don't want to overcapitalise on your first setup, the R5 Pro is where I'd point you. It's a genuinely great entry-level direct drive bundle — and compared to the previous generation R5, the jump in feel and precision is significant. The 21-bit encoder and 6Nm of direct drive torque give you a proper foundation to build on, without the price tag that comes with stepping straight into the mid or high-tier range."

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the MOZA R5 Pro and the original R5 bundle?
The R5 Pro upgrades the wheelbase encoder from 15-bit (32,768 PPR) to 21-bit (2,097,152 PPR) — a 64-fold increase in steering position resolution. Torque increases from 5.5Nm to 6Nm, and a new 600MHz processor is added. The SRP Lite 2 pedals replace the original SR-P Lite pedals. The ES wheel and table clamp carry over from the original bundle.
Do I need a sim racing cockpit, or can I use the R5 Pro on my desk?
The R5 Pro bundle includes a table clamp that supports desks up to 50mm thick. It is designed to be fully functional on a standard desk without a dedicated cockpit, making it practical for desk-based setups. For a permanent rig installation, the R5 Pro has four-hole bottom mounting compatible with most major cockpit and wheel stand brands.
Is the R5 Pro bundle suitable for beginners to sim racing?
Yes. The bundle is designed as a complete starting package that requires nothing beyond a PC, a desk, and a chair to get started. Force feedback is configurable through MOZA Pit House, including four pre-set driving modes and adjustable FFB intensity, so the wheel can be tuned from a lighter setting for new users up to the full 6Nm output as confidence builds.
Can I upgrade the wheel or pedals later?
Yes. The R5 Pro wheelbase is compatible with the full range of MOZA steering wheels via the quick release system. The bundle's pedal port accepts MOZA pedal upgrades including the MOZA SRP2 Pedals and MOZA CRP2 Load Cell Pedals. Handbrakes, shifters, and dashboards can also be added to the ecosystem over time.
Is the R5 Pro PC only, or does it work with consoles?
The R5 Pro is PC only (Windows 10 and 11). It does not support PlayStation or Xbox. For Xbox compatibility, the MOZA R3 Xbox bundle is the correct product.
How does the R5 Pro compare to the MOZA R9 V3?
The R9 V3 delivers 9Nm versus 6Nm on the R5 Pro and includes wireless wheel communication as standard. Both use a 21-bit encoder and NexGen 4.0 FFB. The R9 V3 is the natural step up when more torque is the priority, and the R5 Pro wheelbase is compatible with the same wheel range if you upgrade the base later. The MOZA R9 V3 + SRP2 Pedals Bundle is the mid-tier upgrade path from the R5 Pro.
What simulation titles is it compatible with?
The R5 Pro works with all major PC sim racing titles including iRacing, Assetto Corsa, Assetto Corsa Competizione, Assetto Corsa Evo, F1 25, Le Mans Ultimate, Automobilista 2, DiRT Rally 2.0, EA SPORTS WRC, Forza Motorsport, BeamNG.drive, RaceRoom Racing Experience, Euro Truck Simulator 2, and American Truck Simulator, among others. MOZA Pit House includes game-specific profiles for the most popular titles.
Can the SRP Lite 2 pedals be used with a different wheelbase?
Yes. The SRP Lite 2 pedals connect directly to the PC via USB and are compatible with all wheelbase brands, not just MOZA. If you upgrade to a non-MOZA wheelbase in the future, the pedals continue to function as a standalone USB device.
