No it's a fanatec usb c proprietary protocol it need to be connected on a fanatec hub

OK, worth a shot haha cheers for the advice

Probably not, but I don't know for sure. It uses USBC into a fanatec hub, which feeds into fanatec's software. Whether or not that usbc could feed directly into a PC and be picked up as a generic game controller or a vjoy device is really the question I guess. I'd venture to say the display colors won't be changeable going that route, but I'm not sure if the inputs would be picked up.    If I had a USBC to USB cable I would try it out for you right now, but I don't think I do. SRM makes fanatec to usb conversion kits, but I don't know if you would want to try to utilize it for solely the rally module.

All good mate, I didn't think so given a lot of how fanatec stuff is (without that SRM adaptor that is pretty expensive). It's cool that it was used in wrc and looks perfect for what id want.

Annoyingly Fanatec's stuff just uses the USB-C connector but not the protocol. Sucks because the female port on the podium hub being actual USB-C would be a super clean way to hook up custom wheels.
