I’ve been working on an open-source DIY force feedback wheel project based on the STM32F411.

Current hardware supported:
• STM32F411
• BTS7960
• 775 DC motor
• Encoder or linear potentiometer(b10k is best)

I’m now looking for community testing and feedback:
• bugs
• hardware compatibility
• FFB feel
• game compatibility
• UI/UX feedback]]> 1 Sat, 02 May 2026 15:38:52 +0000 https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/my-diy-sim-dashboard.19932/ https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/my-diy-sim-dashboard.19932/ invalid@example.com (FLORIN ROMANIA) FLORIN ROMANIA 1 Tue, 21 Apr 2026 12:38:48 +0000 https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/diy-ffb-steering-wheel-mmosffb-in-progress.7769/ https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/diy-ffb-steering-wheel-mmosffb-in-progress.7769/ invalid@example.com (Alexey) Alexey

I've build two button boxes with different sets of buttons, switches etc.. Each one is driven by an arduino pro micro. Codewise, I am using the Joystick.h library by MHeironimus so that windows sees those arduinos as regular game controllers.

However, both game controllers show up under the same name: "Arduino Micro". This bothered my only slightly at first, but after binding all my game's buttons to those switches, I see that Windows sometimes mixes both button boxes up. A command...

most pedals you buy have poor resolution and dont get harder to push the faster you go

is it possible to have a brake pedal that is connected to a servo so the pedal simulates a real car

when braking it would be good to feel the pedal pulsing if you activated abs or lost traction

how would sim tools activate this type of actuator / motor ? does RF2 transmit this type of data ? can braking data be extrapolated from the available data ?...

following steps from other thread of this forum ( https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/ina122-for-thrustmaster-tx.14653/ ) I converted my crappy 2 pedal set brake from cheap Thrustmaster wheels in something slightly better, which allows me to modulate the braking very well. I have almost everything documented, therefore I leave it here.

The premises when making this mod were:

• Spend as less as possible
• Do it on 2 pedal set and not on T3PA or similar...

I designed this rudder pad for my simulator chair, so it attaches to a solid surface.

It replaces the Saitek pad I had, which was too heavy, too bulky, and malfunctioned after four years… (Saitek potentiometers are really poor quality; I also had the same problem with their yoke).

The advantage here is that, although the potentiometers are rated for 10,000 rotations, you can easily...

First post here. Just wanted to say hi and show what i've built so far.
Started with a dead hoverboard and removed the motors.

Disassembled the motor and drilled the shaft out with a 9mm drill bit and removed the wiring and circuit board for the inbuilt hall sensors.

Then i designed and printed various mounts for the encoder, odrive 3.5 (clone), FN120 mosfet and 50wR4 braking resistor.
