Motion-Systems Qubic System - Belt Tensioner BT1 - Multi-purpose, dual channel, direct drive seat belt tensioner
The Polish manufacturer Motion Systems, which has developed the "Qubic System" motion platforms and the V3 and Motion Platform Plus under licence for Next Level Racing, has now announced a new sensation: the Belt Tensioner QS-BT1.
And we are a little proud of this development ourselves, as Force2Motion was a driving force behind the development of this extension. With input from the racing and flightsim scene, we persistently fought for Motion Systems to build what we consider to be an indispensable extension for the Qubic systems. And now Motion Systems has introduced this product, which can also be fitted to many stand-alone cockpits without Motion. And of course it's a great extension for those who already have "everything". Well done, guys!
In combination with the BT1V3 adapter developed by us, the Seat Belt Tensioner can be mounted on a Next Level Racing V3 as well as on practically any other seat console. The function of a seat slider for longitudinal adjustment of the seat is fully retained.

About:
Powered by the same technology as the stunning QS-220, the QS-BT1 is a multi-purpose dual channel direct drive seatbelt tightener that enhances immersion in racing simulations like no other device in its class and price range. It not only complements the force feedback of the direct drive steering wheels, but also enhances the overall experience of the already highly immersive QS motion platforms and can even be used as a standalone, independent device if required.
Simulation of braking, lateral acceleration, cornering at high speed, wheel lock and loss of traction are among the key features of QS-BT1. Asymmetric engine vibrations and road effects such as rumble strips are also available for games that support them. Although QS-BT1 was mainly developed for racing simulations, with its 200 N force per channel it can also be successfully used in flight simulators to give you the feeling of gigantic forces during high acceleration manoeuvres.
Scope of delivery:
- 1x two-channel seat belt tensioner
- 1x power supply unit
- 1x cable set
- 1x set of screws
- 1x universal bracket for aluminium profile
Optional accessories:
- Emergency stop switch (motion lock) - is not required if other Qubic systems are present, as the system can be controlled via an (existing) motion lock switch.
Note: For the use of seat movers (such as the NLR Motion Platform V3), the QS-BT1 can only be installed on the upper frame of the motion platform near the pivot point and reduces the permissible user weight. A multi-point harness is required and is not included in the scope of delivery.
