Sim racing hardware

Built to keep every critical control exactly where your hands expect it.

Ctrlwrx button boxes combine durable VESA-mounted construction, brass threaded inserts, and ESP32-S3 performance for sim racers who need reliable control access without a flimsy desktop feel.

Launch range

Three starting points. One consistent design language.

The first Ctrlwrx lineup is built to cover focused setups, expanded control needs, and flagship command density, with room for a future budget model below Grid and a halo model above Pitwall.

Essential control

Grid

Grid keeps the control surface compact and approachable while still using the same durable VESA-ready construction, brass inserts, and ESP32-S3 backbone as the rest of the lineup.

Expanded control

Paddock

Paddock increases control density for drivers who want more direct inputs on the rig while keeping the same durable VESA mounting and ESP32-S3 control architecture.

Flagship command center

Pitwall

Pitwall is the current flagship launch model for sim racers who want maximum utility backed by robust mounting hardware and an ESP32-S3 controller with serious expansion headroom.

Customization

Custom finishes and graphics

Ctrlwrx can tailor the visual finish of a build with custom graphics, driver numbers, color themes, and material looks ranging from restrained carbon-fiber styling to louder color-heavy gamer setups.

Available directions

  • Custom graphics and driver numbers
  • Alternative colours and accent packages
  • Carbon-fiber style and premium finish options
  • Brighter gamer-focused styles for more expressive rigs

Design principles

Hardware that reads fast, feels deliberate, and looks at home in a serious cockpit.

Durable mounting and hardware

Each enclosure is designed around VESA mounting and brass metal inserts so the box stays solid on-rig and stands up to repeated installation and adjustment.

ESP32-S3 control core

The range is built around an ESP32-S3 platform with dual-core performance, native USB support, and more headroom than lower-spec Arduino-class controller boards.

Motorsport-inspired layouts

Three launch tiers keep the interface readable and race-focused, from compact control sets to denser flagship layouts.

Range roadmap

This is the middle of the range, not the ceiling

The launch lineup is designed to establish the core Ctrlwrx platform first. A lower-cost budget model is planned below the entry tier, and an even more advanced halo model is planned above the current flagship.

Planned structure

  • A future budget model below the current entry point
  • The current three-model launch range
  • A future halo model above the current flagship

About the company

Why Ctrlwrx exists

The goal is to make button boxes that feel less like an accessory and more like part of the driving environment. That means clean layouts, durable materials, VESA-ready mounting with brass inserts, and modern controller hardware with more capability than lower-spec Arduino-based alternatives.
