    Hi there. What's the way to make the MMOs work correctly in rFactor2? The thing is that the FFb is kind of inverted over there. Does anybody know it?
    Only've got only an idea to swap the motor, and get rid of soft lock then in MMOS. Otherwise don't know, will be great to hear other way to do it)

    Looking good!
    I think i have to try this kind of wheel setting someday.

    Hola buenas a todos estoy haciendo un volante con arduino leonardo, bts7960b, encoder omron. Y ahora viene mi duda lo tengo todo conectado como en el tutorial emc lite y cuando hago el test de iracing el volante empieza a girar sin parar hasta que no desconecto la alimentación del motor. Si alguien me puede ayudar ? No paro de darle vueltas y no consigo que haga el test bien y no se quede girando todo el rato. Gracias de antemano

    Aquí mis conexiones.

    Sorry. My English level is a little low.

    Hello good everyone I am making a steering wheel with arduino leonardo, bts7960b, encoder omron. And now comes my doubt I have everything connected as in the tutorial emc lite and when I do the iracing test the steering wheel starts to turn non-stop until I turn off the engine power. If anyone can help me? I keep circling it and I can't get him to do the test well and he won't just sit around all the time. Thank you in advance

    good job on your wheel

    does it have enough power to be direct drive ?

    ¿Tiene suficiente potencia para ser de accionamiento directo? [/ QUOTE]

    I have a motor my1020 with 500w

    swap the motor's polarity, or pwm pins. What do you prefere. Look for the right connections of pwm pins according to the EMC versions.

    nice job congratulations!
    I also tried this type of engine, both with the whole steering gearbox (opel corsa B) and direct.
    reduced it has a monstrous force I think it exceeds 50nm, (it has the problem that when you steer fast it generates current and hardens the steering) direct does not have much force. has the big problem of overheating a lot, I tried to drill everywhere but without solution .... it heats up a lot.
    these motors complete with steering reducer are perfect for moving a dynamic station with incredible force.
    your project with reduction is better compromise

    I have changed the polarity of the motor and the bts has burned

    Due to the polarity change, the bts do not and can't burn. You have done smth wrong.

    usually most use the my1020.
    I use a large recovery engine from an industrial floor washer, it weighs 13kg. after many tests I find that the engine must be very robust in order not to overheat and offer strong torques.
    traction motors are ideal, see 1kw treadmill motors and more

    if you need to get some ideas, the engine plate is unfortunately erased by time
