A new GT control platform has arrived on the show floor in Frankfurt. Our photo from SimRacing Expo 2026 captures Ascher Racing’s Aura GT, with illuminated controls and a prominent LED strip across the top of the button plate.
A button plate at the heart of the family
Ascher’s three options are the Aura GT Base button plate and two complete 320 mm wheels: round (32R) or flat-bottom (32D).
Check your intended rim pairing: Ascher plans to test compatibility after the expo.

- 54 physical inputs, with more than 100 programmable functions through Ascher Racing Magic Modes.
- Eight RGB buttons, two thumb encoders, two seven-way joysticks and two 12-position rotaries.
