    Hi!
    I was wondering if anyone could help me going forward in building an f1 steering wheel from scratch and answer some questions (I'm a beginner)
    What parts would I need to build it if I want:
    -An LCD screen
    -Position rotary switches
    -Buttons
    -Shifters and other paddles
    -Rev lights

    What board would I need eg. Arduino Leonardo, Pro micro, Teensy

    What would be a good layout

    Thanks!
