diy brake lock up vibrator

hi guys hope im posting in the right spot

im wondering if anyone could help point me in the right direction
fergotech net/diy-g27-brake-vibration

i have the above setup working fine in iracing, but now wish to use it in pcars and AC.
is there any known apps/setups that will do the job across all 3 games

Omg yes please!

@brooksy : can you please share a picture of your pedal setup?

about vibration, I've tried unbalanced motor... but it's way to slow to produce vibration (lack of precision).
The first spins of motor are not quick enough to induce vibration
I would advice you to use a solenoïd! extremely quick and sharp vibration



I wrote a rFactor plugin but nothing for Pcars or AC.
This plugin computes actual rotation of tyres through two methods
Other solutions, like Fanatec are only working with a braking threshold (not tyres rotation) which is not relevant!

not much to show at the moment as I have only bench tested, didn't see much point fitting it to the pedal just for iracing.

I do see your point about the speed of the rotations and now afraid you may be right
buy the time you feel it vibrate the wheels have been locked to long to be of any use.

I do like the solenoid idea it, sure gets moving and fast
so I may just put the arduino board to bettet use and start planning a 2dof rig

I agree that the problem with the motors can be a slow start to vibration but don't discount them just yet. The reson they have such a delay time is because the motors are not powerful enough to spin the load put on them. I've tried this out today by cutting all but 2 blades off of a small yet powerful cooling fan. The vibration was instantaneous. then I loaded it up with some metal and the fan significantly slowed down. I'll see if I can find a small DC motor that can handle a load required for pedal vibration. At the moment a solenoid is out of the question for me just because of the noise it generates.

maybe drive fet and use a higher current motor
im not sure how that would go

but still limited to Iracing is my biggest problem

I've used the and sketch/app from the AC website for a while.
In the cfg it has
[BRAKE-VIBE]
enable = 1
tolerance = 67
sensitivity = 7

The lower the tolerance the sooner the motor starts to rotate. In my case 67 was a bit before teh tires locked up. But i didn't really like it because it only recognized both wheels locking up. No reaction if only the inner wheel locked up.
But it was better than nothing.

That means it depends to a big part on the sketch, app, or whatever if a "slow" starting motor is enough for you.

the ABS itself is noisy, isn't it?

How nice would life be if all developers stuck to some kind of standard with there data output.
Like car manufacturers do with the OBD ports

I agree with you!

but in this case, they won't share this data: outputing wheels rotation speed in telemetry data would allow to cheat with a fully working ABS system

I found that a 5v metal gear servo motor (ripped apart and scavenged the motor itself, model HK15288A) works a treat! I used a FET as a switch and pulsed an output once a second and the vibrations for the motor was instantaneous.
The motor ends up drawing 0.5A.

So, how would one encorporate this to games such as Project cars and Assetto corsa?
I suppose I could learn how to code but if anyone does know, do these games output anything that could be used as a lockup trigger?
