racing rig, the most valuable information is often the data you don\u2019t pay enough attention to: engine RPM just before the redline, the current gear, and the gap to the fastest lap. The CM HD Digital Dash is based on this simple observation. Rather than letting this data get lost in the game\u2019s HUD, it displays it on a physical screen mounted at the top of the base, right where a real driver would have their instrument cluster. You keep your eyes on the track, the information falls into your peripheral vision, and the cockpit instantly feels more realistic.<\/p>\n<p><!--SRGX--><\/p>\n<div class=\"srg-clear\"><\/div>\n<p><!--\/SRGX--><\/p>\n<h2>What the display shows you<\/h2>\n<p><!--SRGX--><\/p>\n<figure class=\"srg-float-r\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mozaracing.com\/product\/cm2-hd-racing-dash\/?ref=YHIgBwRB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/5e285a22-17a8-4d82-aba2-7c13aa490c29.jpgv1717862093\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"eager\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/5e285a22-17a8-4d82-aba2-7c13aa490c29.jpgv1717862093 1000w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/5e285a22-17a8-4d82-aba2-7c13aa490c29-300x300.jpgv1717862093 300w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/5e285a22-17a8-4d82-aba2-7c13aa490c29-150x150.jpgv1717862093 150w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/5e285a22-17a8-4d82-aba2-7c13aa490c29-768x768.jpgv1717862093 768w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/5e285a22-17a8-4d82-aba2-7c13aa490c29-980x980.jpgv1717862093 980w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/5e285a22-17a8-4d82-aba2-7c13aa490c29-480x480.jpgv1717862093 480w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/5e285a22-17a8-4d82-aba2-7c13aa490c29-600x600.jpgv1717862093 600w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/5e285a22-17a8-4d82-aba2-7c13aa490c29-100x100.jpgv1717862093 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p><!--\/SRGX--><\/p>\n<p>The screen measures 5 inches, with a resolution of 800\u00d7480, 16.7 million colors, and a refresh rate of 60 Hz. Nothing extravagant on paper, but it\u2019s enough for a display whose job is to show clear numbers and a gear indicator that\u2019s easy to read even at full speed. The CM HD displays everything you\u2019d expect from a true dashboard: speed, RPM, current gear, fuel level, tire wear, race position, current lap time, best lap and last lap, real-time gap to the fastest lap, standings, and information about competitors. Seven interface styles are available, ranging from a classic, road-oriented cluster to more technical layouts, allowing you to customize the display based on the discipline or simply your personal reading preferences.<\/p>\n<p><!--SRGX--><\/p>\n<div class=\"srg-clear\"><\/div>\n<p><!--\/SRGX--><\/p>\n<h2>A slim design, seamless integration<\/h2>\n<p><!--SRGX--><\/p>\n<figure class=\"srg-float-l\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mozaracing.com\/product\/cm2-hd-racing-dash\/?ref=YHIgBwRB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\"><img width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/63111c2a-e610-4259-bac5-300b169ae522.jpgv1717862094\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"eager\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/63111c2a-e610-4259-bac5-300b169ae522.jpgv1717862094 1000w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/63111c2a-e610-4259-bac5-300b169ae522-300x300.jpgv1717862094 300w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/63111c2a-e610-4259-bac5-300b169ae522-150x150.jpgv1717862094 150w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/63111c2a-e610-4259-bac5-300b169ae522-768x768.jpgv1717862094 768w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/63111c2a-e610-4259-bac5-300b169ae522-980x980.jpgv1717862094 980w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/63111c2a-e610-4259-bac5-300b169ae522-480x480.jpgv1717862094 480w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/63111c2a-e610-4259-bac5-300b169ae522-600x600.jpgv1717862094 600w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/63111c2a-e610-4259-bac5-300b169ae522-100x100.jpgv1717862094 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p><!--\/SRGX--><\/p>\n<p>The aesthetic choice is deliberate. The CM HD features a slim, almost floating design\u2014directly inspired by car headsets\u2014that adds a modern touch to the rig without obstructing the field of view. It\u2019s designed to mount on top of MOZA bases, such as the R9, and its height is adjustable to accommodate your seating position and viewing angle. This detail matters more than it seems: a dash that\u2019s too low gets obscured by the rim, while one that\u2019s too high forces you to look up. Being able to fine-tune this placement makes the accessory truly usable over the long term.<\/p>\n<p><!--SRGX--><\/p>\n<div class=\"srg-clear\"><\/div>\n<p><!--\/SRGX--><\/p>\n<h2>An accessory for the MOZA ecosystem<\/h2>\n<p><!--SRGX--><\/p>\n<figure class=\"srg-float-r\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mozaracing.com\/product\/cm2-hd-racing-dash\/?ref=YHIgBwRB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\"><img width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/9106be50-981d-4f8e-b13b-008b98ca3b75.jpgv1717862094\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"eager\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/9106be50-981d-4f8e-b13b-008b98ca3b75.jpgv1717862094 1000w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/9106be50-981d-4f8e-b13b-008b98ca3b75-300x300.jpgv1717862094 300w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/9106be50-981d-4f8e-b13b-008b98ca3b75-150x150.jpgv1717862094 150w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/9106be50-981d-4f8e-b13b-008b98ca3b75-768x768.jpgv1717862094 768w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/9106be50-981d-4f8e-b13b-008b98ca3b75-980x980.jpgv1717862094 980w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/9106be50-981d-4f8e-b13b-008b98ca3b75-480x480.jpgv1717862094 480w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/9106be50-981d-4f8e-b13b-008b98ca3b75-600x600.jpgv1717862094 600w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/9106be50-981d-4f8e-b13b-008b98ca3b75-100x100.jpgv1717862094 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p><!--\/SRGX--><\/p>\n<p>It should be viewed for what it is: a component of the MOZA ecosystem, not a universal display. The CM HD connects to the brand\u2019s Direct Drive bases and is controlled via the MOZA Pit House software suite on a PC. That\u2019s where you configure the interface styles, the shift bar thresholds, and the displayed data. Pit House provides immediate support for major titles such as Assetto Corsa, the F1 series, Project Cars 2, and DiRT Rally 2, with telemetry fed from the game to the screen without any complicated setup. This reliance on the ecosystem is both its strength\u2014offering seamless and consistent integration with the rest of MOZA\u2019s hardware\u2014and its limitation, as it restricts the accessory to drivers who already own a MOZA base unit.<\/p>\n<p><!--SRGX--><\/p>\n<div class=\"srg-clear\"><\/div>\n<p><!--\/SRGX--><\/p>\n<h2>Who It's For<\/h2>\n<p><!--SRGX--><\/p>\n<figure class=\"srg-float-l\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mozaracing.com\/product\/cm2-hd-racing-dash\/?ref=YHIgBwRB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\"><img width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/8bba422c-7e55-4e0f-84f9-7b7ec78762e2.jpgv1717862095\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"eager\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/8bba422c-7e55-4e0f-84f9-7b7ec78762e2.jpgv1717862095 1000w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/8bba422c-7e55-4e0f-84f9-7b7ec78762e2-300x300.jpgv1717862095 300w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/8bba422c-7e55-4e0f-84f9-7b7ec78762e2-150x150.jpgv1717862095 150w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/8bba422c-7e55-4e0f-84f9-7b7ec78762e2-768x768.jpgv1717862095 768w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/8bba422c-7e55-4e0f-84f9-7b7ec78762e2-980x980.jpgv1717862095 980w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/8bba422c-7e55-4e0f-84f9-7b7ec78762e2-480x480.jpgv1717862095 480w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/8bba422c-7e55-4e0f-84f9-7b7ec78762e2-600x600.jpgv1717862095 600w, https:\/\/simracergear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/8bba422c-7e55-4e0f-84f9-7b7ec78762e2-100x100.jpgv1717862095 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p><!--\/SRGX--><\/p>\n<p>The CM HD Digital Dash is clearly aimed at PC sim racers who already use MOZA and want to take their realism to the next level without investing in a steering wheel with a built-in screen. For this user profile, it\u2019s an elegant way to bring essential telemetry right into your line of sight, offering instant readouts and a driving station that finally looks like a real cockpit. Those looking for higher resolution, a touchscreen, or additional LED rows should check out the newer model in the lineup, but the CM HD remains a cohesive and well-integrated entry-level option to complement a MOZA setup.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"srg-faq\"><h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2><details class=\"srg-q\" open><summary>Which sim racing wheel should you choose if you're just starting out?<\/summary><div class=\"a\">Aim for a steering wheel and pedal set that\u2019s compatible with your platform, even if it means upgrading later. A belt- or gear-driven steering wheel is sufficient to start with; an affordable direct-drive model (such as the CSL DD) offers a much better feel if your budget allows. Our tests, rated on a scale of 10, help you compare options without making a mistake.<\/div><\/details><details class=\"srg-q\"><summary>Direct drive or belt drive: What's the difference?<\/summary><div class=\"a\">A direct-drive base connects the steering wheel directly to the motor: the force feedback is more powerful, more precise, and more detailed than that of a belt- or gear-driven system. It\u2019s more immersive but more expensive, and it requires a sturdier stand. For beginners, a belt-driven base remains a good choice.<\/div><\/details><details class=\"srg-q\"><summary>Does this hardware work on PS5 and Xbox?<\/summary><div class=\"a\">It depends on the specific model, not the brand: with Fanatec, for example, PlayStation compatibility comes from the base, and Xbox compatibility comes from the steering wheel. Always check the console compatibility listed on each product page before buying, because a steering wheel designed for PC won't necessarily work on a console.<\/div><\/details><details class=\"srg-q\"><summary>Do you need a cockpit to get off to a good start?<\/summary><div class=\"a\">Not necessarily, but a stable mount is essential: even the best steering wheel is useless if it wobbles on a table. A foldable mount is enough to get started; a rigid cockpit becomes really useful once you switch to a powerful direct-drive base.<\/div><\/details><details class=\"srg-q\"><summary>How much should I budget for a good setup?<\/summary><div class=\"a\">Expect to spend about 300 to 500 \u20ac for a decent starter set of a flywheel and pedal set, plus a mount. Affordable direct-drive systems start at a slightly higher price but last for years. It all depends on your platform and your goals.<\/div><\/details><\/div><script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\n    \"@context\": \"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\n    \"@type\": \"FAQPage\",\n    \"mainEntity\": [\n        {\n            \"@type\": \"Question\",\n            \"name\": \"Quel volant sim racing choisir pour d\\u00e9buter ?\",\n            \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n                \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n                \"text\": \"Visez un ensemble volant et p\\u00e9dalier coh\\u00e9rent avec votre plateforme, quitte \\u00e0 monter en gamme ensuite.
