I haven’t found any yet, but I’m really hoping that Cube Controls will integrate SC2’s wireless technology into its wheels.
Yes, that is the plan, once we have knowledge of some of them being ready. Not worth listing them yet.

Seeing as DD-wheel psu’s has been a hot topic in the recent past, I managed to take a few pix of the inside of the SC2 Ultimate psu box yesterday, during my visit to Granite Devices HQ. The quality of not only the components selected, but also the final finishing touches to them, left me astounded.
Having being involved in Industrial Automation since 1988, ‘potting’ of circuit-boards were always indicative of hardened components/products fit for the severest of environments. I leave you with this, note the thick ‘potting’ in these Ultimate dual 500W psu’s - needless to say, it covers the complete psu pcb layer:
I also managed to take a pic of a bare new SC2 drive-stage pcb, for those technically minded folks - this one have connections for the Encoder and 3-phase UVW connections from the servo-stator itself. On the back, there are high-quality industrial connectors that allows a 2nd board (the USB HID) to connect to the drive-stage. I will get a few more shots when I visit GD again Monday evening.
Talking about the high-end industrial quality of the Simucube-based Devices, Tero changed a few MOSFETs and a sensing resistor, and showed me a test for an industrial customer, where he was driving an 80-AMP POS load with otherwise the exact same drive-stage pcb as used in the new SC2 Sport/Pro/Ultimate - now how do you beat that, guys 
Last, but not least, and as mentioned above -> I will be visiting GD HQ again Monday afternoon. Tero has a spare late-development SC2 Pro there, the exact same hardware specs as what will be shipping. I will take that back home with me to provide first-hand information on it as how it compares with the Ultimate in feel, as well as review it together with the DD2 Podium I have.
That should allow us a good overview of pro’s and cons of each system, as well as how they stack up wrt torque-deration, overall performance etc. As was the case with my earlier reviews, it will be to the point and no-nonsense.
Can’t wait to get back home …

I also add myself to Imac to find out more about the expedition, also because on the web I only read about Podium and it gnaws me a little.
That’s great news!!!
Thanks for the quick update Mika.
Hopefully means I will get my Shiney New SC2 Pro in next 5-10 days

Sorry if this has been asked.
If I am happy to continue use of my existing USB wheels, will my Q1R fit the SC2?
Thanks

Yes, you can either remove the Simucube Quick Release and mount your QR to the shaft, or mount the Q1R base side to the Simucube Quick Release Wheel Side with adapter that is supplied.
Simucube 2 uses 24mm shaft, so the cone clamp adapter inside the Simucube Quick Release has slightly larger diameter hole pattern compared to those adapters that were supplied to be used with 22mm Mige shafts, so there might be some challenges.
I’m looking to order the Pro and wondering where I can get a wheel mount button box that will work with a driven 13" wheel or a wheel similiar to what my accuforce has now. TIA
Why not use the AF wheel on the Pro?
Considered but didn’t want to drag the V2 value down further. Will the button box from the accuforce work as well?
The AF button box will not work as is. It can not work without adding a control board.
Any ideas who sells button boxes and maybe wheels I can add to the simucube 2?
Any usb-based wheel will work. For Simucube Wireless Wheels, Martin Ascher at Ascher-Racing should get his new button boxes and wheels on the market soon. Also, Simtech Racing UK has just put this on their website: https://www.simtechracing.co.uk/web-shop/wireless-wheels/?Page_ID=3610&refpid=83177&id=785179
I’m quite sure there will also be others on the market soon too.

Can you say when shipping to resellers or endusers will start?
Yes, mee too i Call 2 time the salesman and i became both Times the same answer
Monday this Week and now Monday next Week …
but hee dont now.
The Communication from GD is not so Great at this part
I am not a reseller, or I don’t know when things will happen, but I do have some thoughts on when this can happen. I do understand that we are all impatiently waiting for a new toy , but personally I won’t expect any shipment from resellers until after next weekend, 18-19th of May. GD needs to ship their units, the resellers will also need to so something to them I suppose, they don’t just turn around cardboard boxes in the warehouse with new shipment labels. I am very sure you won’t have a new wheel next week.
