    Thanks for the great project. I agree that less buttons and 3 pot inputs would be amazingly useful as well

    is there a way to have it sense the button as long as its depressed so i can use a button for chat. as it is the buttons just flash and do not sense long presses.
    Thank you for sharing. This is an awesome pit tool.

    Much that effort is appreciated. The truth is that as iRacing simulators, the option to tow, leave pressed a button. Again thank you very much and best regards

    guys,

    can you try this new attached joystick version?
    virtual buttons should be pressed as long as you hold real buttons now

    Now the problem I have with this change is that when entering iRacing, works for a period of time and then switched off and no longer recognizes the arduino. I was testing the long press of the buttons. It may be for this change in the scheme?

    Hey man, thanks for sharing the project!
    It is possible to use 6 encoders on the 1st version of your button box?
