    Hey everyone.

    Today I made a simple program that calculates if your power supply voltage is enough to drive a motor at max torque and some meme inducing real world forces that you can expect at the steering wheel.

    Made this program because a lot of people in the OpenFFB community are not sure about motor and power supply pairing. Also threw in real life measurement of kilograms at the steering wheel.

    Hope that this makes a lot of memes when you calculate Large Mige 100% force feedback strength and that we respect Jimmer for making the meme videos.
