The QRDee System is designed around the Thrustmaster Warthog Joystick base and shares the same radius.
NOTE: If you have a DOF Reality rig and wish to mount centrally to the Main Beam, then please have a look at our QRDee Quick Release Base Mount DOFR-Main Beam for a no-drill variant.
Please note: Our QRDee Base Mount kits do not support FFB devices
New QRDee 40-Series Compatability
The QRDee Base Mount 40 is a new edition and replaces the original version of the trusty QRDee Base Mount. The QRDee system remains entirely compatable as there is no change to the Quick Release system itself.
The main change is to the mounting holes for the base itself to give more mounting choices, including on to 40-Series Aluminium Extrusions.
Along with 40mm centres, we have retainined the 60.1mm centre holes, the same mounting points for the most common flight sim controllers such as the Warthog Joystick from Thrusmaster so they can fix easily to some if not most flight themed rigs already out there. A template is provided below for those who are more DIY minded and may have solid mounting plates that require drilling.
If you have a 40-Series Profile Aluminium Extrusion based rig, you will need to choose optional 40-Series Profile fixing kit to help you fit the base mount to your rig directly to the extrusion itself, without the need for a metal mounting plate underneath. This kit comes with the Base Mount, fixings and 'Drop-in' T-nuts so there is no need to remove any end caps you may have fitted.
Whatever you are mounting to, we recommend no less than 66% coverage of the total surface area of the Base Mount. For the
QRDee this would be approx 74mm wide by 74mm deep minimum or preferrably as big or bigger than the Base Mount itself. In terms of 40 series profile, this would be 4080 minimum.
If however, this is not possible and only a 40mm edge is available to mount to, then we have a solution:
The
QRDee Base Support Bracket 40, also available separately, can be used to provide support underneath the
QRDee Base Mount. You can choose to purchase the
QRDee Base Support Bracket 40 + Fixing kit along with your
QRDee Base Mount 40 from the Fixing Kit options.
Please note that if you are using an extension on your joystick, we recommend no more than 175mm for the extension. For longer extensions, please use the QRPro range of products.
The Lever comes in Red as default, but you can choose from 9 different colours when adding to your cart at no extra cost if you want a different accent theme on your rig!
