Pitch and roll tell you the car is braking. Surge makes you feel the weight of it. The DOF Reality H4 adds that fourth axis on top of the H3's pitch, roll and traction loss, so the physical push of hard acceleration and the shove of heavy braking come through your whole rig, not just your imagination. The most complete DOF Reality platform short of the flagship, built for the kind of immersion that justifies the price tag without quite needing the H6.
Flying as well? Consider the H4R variant. Reducer gearboxes on each motor smooth out the slow-speed motion for flight simulation, so the same surge axis that punches you back under acceleration also gives you the seat-press of thrust without the harshness.
- 4DOF of motion: pitch, roll, traction loss, surge
- Full rig motion. Seat, controls and pedals all move together
- Tuned for sim racing where the motion is fast and reactive
- Works with 100+ sim racing titles (iRacing, Assetto Corsa, ACC, F1, Project Cars, GT7, Forza)
- SimRacing Studio Pro licence included
- R variant with reducer gearboxes available for flight simulation
Configuration: Choose your preferred setup using the options above. Steering wheel, pedals, monitor and PC are sourced separately.
Console users: Add the Console Link (MagicBox) variant above if you are running without a PC.

Brakes That Hit Back. Throttle That Pushes.
Pitch and roll tell you the car is braking. Surge makes you feel the weight of it. The DOF Reality H4 adds that fourth axis on top of the H3's pitch, roll and traction loss, so the physical push of hard acceleration arrives in your back and the shove of heavy braking arrives in your chest. It's the axis most people underestimate until they feel it.
Kerbs you ride over instead of clatter across. Throttle inputs that land where your body reads them. The most complete DOF Reality platform short of the flagship. Ships direct with free UK mainland delivery, 2 to 3 weeks lead time.
Weight Transfer You Can Actually Feel.
In a real car, weight transfers around the chassis with every input. The H4 reproduces that physically rather than visually. Coming off the brakes into turn-in, the surge axis releases and the pitch axis takes over, exactly the way a real car settles into a corner. Slam the throttle on exit and you feel the rig load rearward.
It's the level of motion where the simulator stops being a sim and starts being something closer to driving. Compatible with over 100 sim racing titles, SimRacing Studio Pro licence included. For flight simulation, see the H4R variant.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will my existing cockpit fit on the platform?
The DOF Reality platforms are designed to be used with the DOF Reality supplied cockpit only. Unlike some motion platforms, they do not have a universal top plate that accepts third party rigs. If you are planning to use a DOF Reality platform, your seat, wheelbase, pedals and monitors will need to be mounted onto the DOF Reality cockpit that comes with the unit. Contact us before ordering if you have any questions about your specific setup.
How long does delivery take?
DOF Reality platforms ship from Poland in batches every two weeks. Please allow 2 to 3 weeks from order to delivery. We will keep you updated throughout.
What software do I need?
SimRacing Studio Pro is included with every platform and handles the motion configuration for over 100 titles including iRacing, Assetto Corsa Competizione, F1, Gran Turismo and more. You download it, connect your game and the platform responds to live telemetry automatically.
Does it work with PlayStation and Xbox?
The platforms are compatible with PC natively. A Console Link add-on is available separately for PlayStation and Xbox compatibility.
What is the noise level like?
24dBA during operation which is roughly equivalent to a quiet fan. The motors are electric and virtually silent. Most customers describe it as quieter than they expected.
What is not included in the box?
Your seat, steering wheel, pedals, monitor and PC are not included when you purchase the Platform Only. The platform ships as a complete unit ready for assembly and all tools needed are included in the box. - There is an option to add a seat and more when choosing product options.
Is the H4 Right For You?
Best For
- Sim racers who've outgrown 3DOF and want surge to feel acceleration and braking physically
- Drivers running endurance, F1 or open-wheel titles where weight transfer dominates the experience
- Buyers wanting the most complete DOF platform without the H6 flagship price
- Anyone who values the kerb-strike feedback the surge axis brings to track driving
Consider the H4R Instead If
- You primarily fly rather than race
- You want surge for thrust feedback but tuned for smoother flight motion via reducer gearboxes
- You cross between flight and racing and want one platform that does both well
Not Recommended For
- Buyers on a strict £3,000 ceiling - the H3 is the more sensible level
- Casual users - the surge axis benefit is felt most by drivers actively pushing limits
- Flight-only users - the H4R is the better-suited variant
