MOZA R3 (3.9 Nm)

The R3 is a beginner-tier 3.9Nm direct-drive base on the MOZA-QR mount with both Xbox and PC support, serving as an entry point into direct drive for console racers leaving gear-driven wheels. It's a strong first step up for Xbox and PC drivers. Note it sells as a bundle rather than a standalone base, so buyers who specifically want the base on its own should look at another model.
