Most platforms tilt to fake the forces a car puts through a driver. The eMotion STL refuses to. Surge and traction loss are linear forces in a real car, so the STL reproduces them as linear movement. The whole rig slides forward and back along a track for acceleration and braking. The rear pivots left and right for oversteer and understeer. It sits underneath the cockpit you already own and moves the entire thing, not just the seat, so gear changes, throttle and slides all land where your body expects them. Tilting a platform feels like soft suspension. This feels like driving. Sim racing focused, because surge and traction loss are racing cues that do not translate to flight.

Configuration: Choose your motion module (Surge plus Traction Loss, Surge only, or Traction Loss only). Add a Single Screen or Triple Screen cockpit, or a Console Controller as variants above. The STL sits under your existing cockpit. Seat, wheelbase, pedals and monitor sourced separately.

Console use: Add the Console Controller variant above. Compatible with GT7, F1 series, Project Cars 2 and Forza titles. Not all racing titles supported. Contact us if unsure.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between surge and traction loss?

Surge simulates acceleration, braking and gear changes by moving your whole rig forward and backward. Traction loss simulates oversteer and understeer by pivoting the rear of the rig left and right around a front pivot point.

Can I buy just one and upgrade later?

Yes. The STL is modular. You can order surge only or traction loss only and upgrade to both at any time by adding the motion module. You do not need to buy a whole new platform.

Will it fit my existing cockpit?

The STL is compatible with most cockpits including eMotion Simulators, Playseat, Trak Racer, GT Omega and Rseat. Some cockpits may require an adapter plate which eMotion can supply. If you don't have a cockpit yet, you can add an eMotion Single Screen or Triple Screen cockpit as a variant option above — both bolt directly onto the platform.

Can I use it on console?

Yes with the eMotion Console Controller available as an add-on variant above. Compatible with GT7, F1 series, Project Cars 2 and Forza titles.

Can I use the STL alongside other eMotion products?

Yes. The STL works alongside the e2, e3, eSeat, eSeatX and eBelt. Many customers combine the STL with an e2 or e3 for a full motion experience covering pitch, roll, heave, surge and traction loss.

How long is the lead time?

Every STL is built to order by hand in the UK. Lead time is 3 to 4 weeks from order.

Is delivery included in the price?

Yes. Free UK mainland delivery is included on all eMotion Simulators products. The price shown includes VAT.
