Fanatec Podium Hub + QR2
A pro-tier modular hub built from single-piece anodised aluminium with QR2, RGB LEDs, and 10 inputs, the most capable foundation in this batch. It's the base for custom Podium-tier builds where you bring your own rim and Fanatec button or display modules. It's PC-only, so Xbox players should pass, and plug-and-play buyers should note the rim and modules are sold separately.
