    i am testing with your code and it works until the calibration factor is too low and values goes above 326xx. Otherwise that's just already very good :)

    i also recommend a small delay in the main loop to stop overloading the joystick service

    delay(50) ;

    I am making a racing sim using (Arduino Leonardo) adding potentiometer pedal, h shifter and ffb steering wheel,
    But now I also want to add a load cell(hx711) handbrake
    Can I integrate it in Leonardo or I need to use new Arduino board.


    Please give suggestions and way of doing this(adding load cell handbrake code to Leonardo ffb steering wheel code)
