From the SimLab DD wheelbase announcement
Hi, the Sim-Lab effort is totally independent, designed from the ground up. They did not collaborate with any other current DD wheel suppliers.
The DD wheel space has been getting busier this past couple of years, competition drives development. A good thing at the end for consumers.
Edit: The info is available on Sim-lab Reddit, Richard has posted there.

As Itās to be expected, thereās also thrusmaster, one day or other simucube will be equal or even surpassed, which isnāt the case today.
In any case, as heās talking about it, simlab had better not screw up! Iāve already noticed a mistake, the power supply for my sc2 isnāt 360w but 450-480w, so ā¦
There are particular tricks also in SC2 controller FW that Tero has implemented, letās say, to make things a bit more efficient.
Anyway, exciting for users that others are pushing the envelope, it creates good, healthy competition, and we are the beneficiaries.
Maybe if I put my business hat on for a moment, one thing I have learned with my industrial customers is that āsell to customers what they are asking for, not what you want to sell themā. So letās see how things develop.
Hopefully all current and future sim-suppliers heed this message 
I am excited to see what is coming.

Right. The Sim-Lab wheelbases will be released āafter next summerā. Thatās just over 6 years after the SC2 introduction. So claiming that it will be better than SC2 is not such a ābold statementā. We do expect progress over time. And the fact that SC2 is still the benchmark 6 years after release is a great testament to the quality of the product.
Anyway ā¦ Your move, Simucube
