BDH ACTIVE SHIFTER: WHERE SIMULATION MEETS SENSATION

Built on the legendary BDH H1 "Bazooka" foundation, the Active Shifter™ represents a revolution in force feedback shifting. Fully integrated with SimHub telemetry, every resistance, vibration, and kickback is driven by what your virtual car is actually doing—creating the world's first truly active, physics-based shifter that feels alive in your hands.

Beyond Force Feedback: Active Mechanical Interactivity

This isn't passive resistance or canned effects. The BDH Active Shifter™ uses real-time telemetry to create a living connection between your hands and the virtual drivetrain, delivering sensations that have never existed in sim racing hardware before.

Feel the Drivetrain, Not Just the Shift

The Active Shifter's servo motor doesn't just resist movement—it actively responds to drivetrain behavior. Under hard acceleration, the lever holds firm, replicating torque retention. During gear grinding from a missed clutch, you'll feel the kickback and vibration. This is mechanical authenticity driven by physics, not programmed patterns.

SimHub Integration: Direct. Native. Instant.

Fully integrated with SimHub telemetry, the Active Shifter interprets real-time data from your sim without plugins or third-party software. Engine RPM translates to haptic vibration. Clutch engagement modulates resistance. Drivetrain load changes gate retention. Every element is synchronized to what the car is actually doing, creating a one-to-one connection you've never experienced before.

Configure Everything, On the Fly

The integrated rotary encoder interface lets you adjust gate patterns, haptic intensity, and feedback levels without exiting your session. Switch from a 6-speed GT layout to a 4-speed touring car configuration in seconds. Calibrate clutch bite point for heel-and-toe perfection. Every setting is accessible at your fingertips, keeping you focused on driving, not menus.

Pre-Order Details & Delivery Timeline

The BDH Active Shifter is available for pre-order at £1,700 (£150 off the £1,850 RRP). A £300 deposit secures your position in the limited first production batch, with the remaining £1,400 balance invoiced approximately 30 days before shipping in March 2026.

Your deposit is fully refundable within 14 days of payment. After this period, the deposit becomes non-refundable as we begin production planning and component procurement for your unit. This pre-order system ensures you receive your Active Shifter as soon as the first batch is manufactured.
