QS-GC3
Sustained G, from inside your seat.
QS-GC3 is a G-Cushion. It sits inside your bucket seat and moves the one part of it that touches you: the cushion. Braking, the road and the engine go straight into your body. The floor stays still, and so do your neighbors.

Braking and acceleration, felt through the cushion
Brake and the front of the cushion drops, and stays down for the whole braking zone: your weight goes forward, into the belts. Accelerate and it rises under your thighs, and you sink back into the seat.
Sustained cues
The cushion holds a force for as long as the car does: a long braking zone feels long. Crests and the road come through the same way.
Haptics / engine vibrations
QS-GC3 supports both: gear changes, tires, curbs, ABS, TC and the engine itself. Nothing extra to wire or power.
Neighbor friendly
It moves the cushion, not the frame or the floor. Play late, in an apartment, above someone else, without bothering anyone.
Two plates and a hinge.
Two plates lie on the floor of your seat, under the cushion, joined by a hinge at the rear, under you. The actuator sits under the seat and pushes the top plate through the seat’s lower belt slot: the front of the cushion rises and falls, and nothing else moves. No drilling, no cutting: it uses the slot your seat already has.
Will it fit my seat?
A lower belt slot, required
The actuator mounts through the lower belt slot in the seat floor. There is no adapter: a seat without that slot will not take QS-GC3. The crotch strap of your harness mounts directly to the QS-GC3 plate.
A cushion that comes out
The plates go between the seat floor and the cushion, so the cushion must lift out.
2-3 cm of room
You sit that much higher. Most cockpits let you drop the seat to make up for it.
Room under the seat
The actuator hangs below the seat floor. Leave space above the cockpit floor or rails.
