[@simracersarma19]

That's really a very good innovation. Really proud of you man.

[@LRTOTAL]

Amazing, I tried doing this with another motor but my design wasn't great and the belt kept skipping. And ultimately the force feedback wasn't strong enough. So went with a bigger motor, the MY6812, and a 3d prited 5:1 gear reduction. The only problem now is that when turning the wheel I can feel a little cogging torque. But not enough to break the immersion. I am using the same components basically, the same H bridge, Arduino Leonardo... On the Leonardo I put one of those perf-board shields and used crimped JST XH connectors to avoid the soldering hell of my previous version haha

[@santiagokinen4711]

did you try putting a belt tensioner like car engines have? it might solve your belt skipping problems

sorry i dont have any other recommendation

[@seg522]

you are answering a lot of questions that helps a lot tnxx but once if i bought emc can i use it for 3 or more steering wheels and if i use printer encoder would that be accurate like yours

[@AllenResalam]

EMC can be only be used on ONE pc, ( 1 PC - 1 License file ) but you can use multiple steering wheel on one PC, i dont think printer encoder will be accurate and lag free compared to he ones i use

[@Hrithikcv007]

Bro in wiring diagram there are 3 button u only used 2 for pedal shifter Is that button for handbrake??

[@melvilledsouza]

Beautiful build, love the box design. I have been wanting to build this for nearly a year now, but what kept me from building the encoder as they use the IP2770 encoder which isint available in country. My question is whether the 600ppr resolution is enough? Can minute adjustment be done to the steering wheel smoothly unlike in your potential steering wheel video?

[@AllenResalam]

trust me 600 ppr is more than enough, it is precise and responsive to quick movements, go for it.

excellent video! Just wanted to know how's the delay like? i see that when you put input through steering, the game receives it after like 0.2 seconds.Is it good for drifting in beamng drive?

[@AllenResalam]

there is no visible delay for most games, few games do have input lag . I designed this to be the simplest FFB wheel you can make , im working on something better.

For Force feedback effects, auto self centering, vibrations, spring effect etc

[@devampatel1265]

Hey great video! I had one doubt in the circuit diagram why are there 3 microlever switches marked but you only use 2 for paddle shifters right

[@AllenResalam]

3rd one can be used as another switch or something , its not related to paddles

[@viniciusfontinele2856]

Very nice project man! I'm planning mine, could you tell me how much torque in Newtons meter the combination of motor and pulleys yielded? I'm doing it for drift.

[@lovrospoljaric3488]

Hey man, i love this build and im planning on building it! But one of my questions is what is the turning radius?

[@AllenResalam]

There is no physical steering end lock, its set in software and it ranges from 30 deg to 2000+ deg, the motor will lock the steering when it reaches the end angle, so basically you can set whatever turning radius you want

[@lovrospoljaric3488]

@@AllenResalam Thank you for your answer!

[@MrrOogway]

But if you plan on adding bottons to your steering or even paddle shifters,I'd recommend looking into buying or making a rotary union joint/ slip ring that allows for continuous turning without the limitations of a cable on how much you can turn it

[@idhamsatria1288]

I want to build this on my weekend, any other tips for 3d printed component subtitute? Cuz i dont have any or my place doesnt provide any 3d priting services

1.What if we use other type of DC motor? 2. I can only get printer encoders does it have effects that can be seen visually or is it enough for driving . Is it better than potentiometer? 3. What if I change the gears... 🙏

[@AllenResalam]

1. yes you can use any DC motors, just need proper power supply for that 2. printer encoders works , but not sure how accurate and responsive they are. potentiometers cant be used in FFB system 3. you mean pulley, bigger pulley = more torque on wheel

[@arpit3146]

[@bobavok1861]

Hello! First of all very nice build! I have a question, does the rpm matter because i have a 895 12v dc motor which has 5000 rpm and the 775 has 3500 rpm? If i use the 895 motor the steering will be faster, bad and i have to use another settings for FFB, or better because it has more rpm and more power? Thanks. 🥰

[@AllenResalam]

Rpm doesnt matter, torque does in this project. 895 have more torque than 775. you have to tweak some settings in the app to get your preferred ffb effects in all motors, so yeah you can go for with 895.

[@bhushanahuja4584]

Should i try using 2 motors instead of one?

thats is actually normal with one motor , it doesnt perfectly center itself that precisely with small deg of movements , you can try 2 motors, it will work better

What are the potentiometerson the soldering diagram at 3:56? I don't see any potentiometers being used. Also, in the diagram you only have a handful of things going into the arduino, but in the video you have almost every port taken up. Which one is correct?
