The Next Level Racing® Free Standing Keyboard & Mouse Stand creates an independent, adjustable workstation for keyboard and mouse control beside a racing cockpit, flight simulator, wheel stand, gaming chair, or custom simulator. Because it does not attach directly to the cockpit, it can be positioned for the user, moved between simulator stations, or pulled away when the controls are not needed.
A cockpit-mounted keyboard tray can be convenient, but it also moves with the frame, may interfere with entry, and usually works only with one cockpit family. This freestanding design avoids those limitations and gives the user more control over height, reach, angle, and the relationship between the keyboard and mouse.
We recommend it for mixed racing and flight simulators, commercial stations, shared rooms, VR setups, and custom cockpits where the keyboard needs to move independently from the simulator frame.
The stand is supported independently from the cockpit, allowing it to be placed beside, in front of, or partially over a compatible simulator setup.
Works without drilling into or permanently modifying the simulator frame.
Reposition the stand between racing, flight, VR, and general gaming stations.
Pull the stand away when entering or leaving the simulator.
The keyboard and mouse trays can be positioned independently for different body sizes, simulator types, and control preferences.
Position the mouse beside the keyboard for a conventional desktop arrangement.
Place the mouse tray below the keyboard when a lower mouse position feels more natural.
Refine the tray angle to reduce wrist strain and improve control access.
Move the trays into position for seated racing, upright flight, or general gaming use.
The stand adjusts from approximately 68 to 88 cm in height and includes adjustable feet for leveling on suitable floor surfaces.
Supports low racing positions, upright flight seating, and conventional gaming chairs.
Help stabilize and level the stand on minor floor irregularities.
Makes it easier to adapt a shared simulator for different users.
Dedicated Next Level Racing keyboard and mouse mats are included to create a more secure, finished control surface.
Helps protect the tray and reduce unwanted keyboard movement.
Provides a consistent tracking surface without requiring a separate pad.
Cable-management routing is incorporated into the adjustment and twist-knob components to help organize keyboard and mouse wiring.
Helps keep USB and power cables away from the floor and cockpit entry area.
Organized cables are less likely to snag when the stand is repositioned.
Because the stand does not attach to the cockpit, it can be used with a broad range of simulator and gaming setups.
Position it beside tube-frame, aluminum-profile, foldable, and custom racing rigs.
Useful for aircraft controls, navigation, communications, and software management.
Provides a separate peripheral station without requiring a complete cockpit.
Works beside most brands when sufficient floor space and adjustment clearance are available.
Keeps keyboard and mouse controls accessible while the user remains seated.
Can be shared or repositioned between simulator bays as operational needs change.
Optional Next Level Racing Lockable Caster Wheels can be added when greater mobility is required.
Roll the stand between simulator stations or move it away for storage.
Engage the caster locks before typing, gaming, or leaning on the trays.
One stand can serve several simulator types without permanent attachment.
Reposition the controls between customer stations and maintenance tasks.
Move the stand away when the keyboard and mouse are not needed.
Maintain access to menus, launchers, and desktop controls from the seat.
Avoid fabricating a cockpit-specific keyboard tray.
Height and articulation adjustments accommodate different users and seating positions.
Choose this freestanding stand.
A cockpit-specific keyboard tray may occupy less independent floor space.
The freestanding design is easier to move and share.
Choose a compatible cockpit-mounted tray instead.
