A rigid open cockpit in black with a frameless ActiFit seat, adjustable driving position and official Direct Drive recommendation.

Why choose this product?
- The stable frameless structure is officially recommended for Direct Drive wheels and is designed to transmit force-feedback detail through the cockpit.
- A fully adjustable driving position, breathable ActiFit upholstery and an open frame support longer sessions and unrestricted pedal use.
Product details
Direct Drive-focused construction
Playseat officially recommends the Trophy for Direct Drive wheels. The frame combines lightweight carbon-quality steel with a rigid wheel mount and a pedal plate designed for high braking force. This makes it more suitable than lighter or centre-post cockpits when using stronger force feedback.
Seat design and adjustment
The Black edition uses ActiFit and Racing PU Leather and a frameless seating structure that adapts to the driver's body. The position can be adjusted for different drivers and control layouts, while the open cockpit leaves room for natural leg movement and techniques such as heel-and-toe operation.
Dimensions and hardware compatibility
The assembled cockpit measures 140 × 58 × 100 cm and weighs 16 kg. Playseat lists compatibility with steering wheels and pedals from major brands. Because mounting patterns and wheelbase dimensions differ, customers should still confirm the exact hardware combination, especially when using front-mount or side-mount Direct Drive bases.
Compatibility
Direct Drive: officially recommended by Playseat.
Racing hardware: compatible with steering wheels and pedals from major brands; verify the exact mounting pattern.
