NEW CHALLENGER HAS ARRIVED
MOTION + HAPTICS 2.0
COMPACT 2DOF MOTION FOR RACING AND FLIGHT
The Qubic System QS-H13 Challenger is a compact and ultra-quiet 2DOF seat mover designed for driving and flight simulators.
Using the same technology as the QS-220 actuators, the QS-H13 delivers smooth and precise movement across pitch and roll, reproducing forces associated with braking, cornering, acceleration, and aircraft maneuvers.
Built with industrial-grade components and high structural rigidity, the QS-H13 supports a payload of up to 130 kg while maintaining a compact footprint for simulator setups where space is limited.
The system also delivers integrated low- and high-frequency vibrations, transferring effects such as engine pulses, RPM changes, gear shifts, road texture, micro-bumps, curbs, and rumble strips to the seat and cockpit hardware.
Its hardware and software are engineered for 10 ms ultra-low latency, measured from receipt of a telemetry signal to physical motion.
A deeply positioned pivot point sits close to the user's seat, supporting the reproduction of acceleration, braking, cornering, pitch, and roll forces.
The QS-H13 operates on 115/230V and is designed for installation on most aluminum cockpits without additional brackets or drilling.

Additionally, it features low power consumption compared to other systems on the market.
RESERVED FOR HIGH-END PRODUCTS
VIBRATIONS AND HAPTICS
With QS-H13, you get integrated functionality delivering a wide range of low- and high-frequency vibrations. This enhances your ability to feel diverse effects, improving your connection with the vehicle and helping you become a better driver or pilot.
The system efficiently transfers these vibrations to the seat and cockpit hardware, so you can distinctly feel engine pulses, RPM changes, gear shifts, and a wealth of road texture – from micro-bumps to curbs and rumble strips.
These features are typically found only in high-end products, setting this device apart from lower-cost alternatives that lack vibration effects. It highlights the superior quality of Qubic
PRECISION WITHOUT DELAY
The QS-H13 Seat Mover has been fully engineered, both in hardware and software, to eliminate perceptible latency while driving. It features ultra-low latency of just 10 ms – measured from the moment a telemetry signal is received to the exact moment the machine responds with real physical motion.
DEEPLY POSITIONED PIVOT POINT
TRUE G-FORCE DYNAMICS
2DOF Seat Mover features a deeply positioned pivot point, located very close to the user’s seat, enhancing the realism of G-forces during operation.
This design closely mimics the dynamics of a real vehicle, improving immersion and delivering a heightened sense of “being in the vehicle”. Users can fully experience the subtle shifts and forces during acceleration, braking, and cornering for a truly authentic simulation experience.
FULL IMMERSION EXPERIENCE
QS-H13 + QS-BT1 COMPATIBILITY
The QS-H13 Seat Mover is fully compatible with the QS-BT1 Seat Belt Tensioner – the most advanced solution of its kind on the market. Together, they create a perfectly synchronized system that combines motion and physical immersion. While the QS-H13 precisely replicates vehicle dynamics, the QS-BT1 adds realistic tension feedback during acceleration, braking, and cornering, letting you literally feel the forces acting on your body.

NEIGHBOR-FRIENDLY
QUIETNESS AND SMOOTHNESS
Utilizing the same technology as the QS-220, QS-H13 ensures ultra-quiet operation by eliminating gearboxes and DC motors commonly found in other solutions.
Despite offering rich haptics, the system is neighbor-friendly – vibrations do not transfer into the floor. The actuator architecture avoids the vertical “up-down” frequency that would otherwise knock on the floor and propagate through the building structure. As a result, structure-borne noise is significantly reduced and any residual vibration is greatly minimized.
Thanks to its silent, low-transfer behavior, the simulator can be used freely in residential spaces and during late hours without disturbing other household members or neighbours.
QS-H13 COMPATIBILITY
The 2DOF Seat Mover – QS-H13 Challenger is built to fit perfectly with most aluminum cockpits and cockpits from other popular brands. Its design makes it easy to install and compatible with a wide range of setups, whether they are standard or custom-made.
It also works flawlessly with other devices from the Qubic System family, like the QS-210, QS-220, QS-CH2, and QS-BT1. This makes it simple to expand your setup and ensures all components work well together for the best simulation experience.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Yes. The QS-H13 must be mounted to astable aluminum profile cockpitfor safety and optimal performance. The package includes universal mounting adapters.
QS-H13 operates quietly, with anoise level below 58 dB(A)under normal conditions –the quietest seat moversin its class.
No. The QS-H13 has no vertical “up-down” movement, so it does not transfer vibrations to the floor. It is designed to be neighbour-friendly, even in shared spaces.
Yes. The QS-H13 is fully compatible with the VR and VR HeadWay feature in Qubic Manager software, which compensates the in-game image according to platform motion for a smoother VR experience.
Yes. The QS-H13 isfully compatible with the QS-BT1, enabling deeper immersion by synchronizing seat movement with belt tension feedback.
Yes. The QS-BT1 mounting brackets are included in the QS-H13 package.
The QS-H13 is designed for plug-and-play installation. With included brackets, clear mounting points, and step-by-step software guidance, most users can complete setup within less than an hour.
Serviceability & noise: e-brakes are non-repairable and have moving internals that often cause disc rattling under vibration and haptic effects. Avoiding this noise source is intentional.
Heat, power, weight: e-brake electromagnets produce more heat than the motors, add extra mass, and draw additional power during operation. QS-H13 runs at 46 V for dynamics; most e-brakes are 24 V, so they would need a second PSU. Motors typically use less power to hold position than e-brakes need to release and hold their internal discs.
Limited real-world use: e-brakes help only when the unit is completely powered off, which is not a typical use case for a seat mover.
Power-off behavior: QS-H13 uses a hardware passive circuit that gains power from spinning motors and at the same time limits their speed. The faster you try to move it, the more resistance it generates. When power is cut, the seat does not move abruptly; under load it slowly shifts forward or backward and settles safely.
Yes, Qubic Manager software is required and can be downloaded HERE. The QS-H13 serial number is needed for activation and profile setup.
Qubic Manager license is free of charge.
QS-H13 requires a 120/230 ± 10% VAC 50-60 Hz single phase with ground and neutral connection.
It is strongly recommended to use a FIA-certified racing seat and harness for safety and optimal performance.
