6. Launch control settings
By default the maximum value of the left clutch paddle can be adjusted with the respective slider
in the Cubesettings app. Therefore, if the clutch slider is set in the middle of its travel, when fully
depressing the left clutch paddle, its value will go from the minimum to the value set by the
clutch slider, which is middle in this example.
The right paddle always works in a range from min to max travel, no matter how the clutch slider
is set. This system allows the user to mimic the launch control system used in F1 cars until 2015,
where it was possible to set the clutch bite point.
Finding the correct clutch bite point setting
In a practice session, set the clutch slider at around 50% of its travel, fully depress both clutch
paddles, engage first gear, reach the optimal engine RPM, release the right clutch paddle.
As the car starts gaining speed, release the left clutch paddle and shift gears as normal. If you
notice that the clutch starts slipping too much, you will need to decrease the left clutch paddle
max value. If you notice that the engine drops quickly in RPM, then you will need to increase the
clutch slippage by increasing the slider value.
After each value modification, the “SAVE SETTINGS” button must be pressed.
This value is typically different for each car and different track conditions.
Default master clutch is the right one. This means that it is not affected by the slider value
and it will always operate from min to max value.
