    So my build has begun.

    To start with I assembled all my electrical components for now and have made a rather crude looking test rig.

    Was having dramas with my motor 2 pot to start with but found it to be poor contact in pin in A0

    I've got everything tuned in fairly well through SMC3 and looks to be running smoothly.

    Still waiting for my hall effect pots to turn up, so I've just got some 10k pots from jaycar on there for now.

    My next step will be to get a sim tools licence and plugin for assetto corsa and start playing with that.

    As far as the rig goes I haven't started building yet till I know I've got these motors dialed in and doing what I want them to do.

    Thanks to dmax, I've spent countless hours watching your tutorial vids and pretty excited to keep moving forward

    I've attached some pictures of my current masterpiece

    Cheers
