Great Video!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻 Keep up the good work

[@cateatpaw]

One idea is, instead of using an Arduino Leonardo is to use a STM32F401CCU6, so you don't get a lot of delay and also to make the build a bit more cheaper!

@@uElectroPro you can make use of the potentiometer and simulate a rotary encoder within the software tho-

[@ovc4a]

I do not recommend using this potentiometer that rotates 10x. I used one and due to its large range, vibrations appear that cannot be changed either with software or by adding a capacitor.

im currently working on an analog handbrake to add to my G923, do you know how to send an analog controller/keyboard inout via USB?

Not sure about g923. You can use arduino leonardo. It has Analog inputs so you can connect the handbrake to it. Just need to upload the code on arduino and connect your handbrake

pls tell what potentiometer needed for pedals. what rating or ohms

[@uElectroPro]

10k ohm potentiometers

[@shhazz34]

Can we use L298N motor driver ibstead of Bts7960?

[@uElectroPro]

No, I wouldn't recommend using L298N. L298N is rated for low power consumption applications (like below 2 amps), and cannot handle the high current drawn by 775 dc motor. So, it's recommended to use BTS7960 43A motor driver.

Nice,,Please make a video on pedals

[@israeljmtd1667]

hey man what is the extra circute board above the motor driver ? can you please upload your circute diagram with all the button and the shifter, I think the circuit diagram doesn't include the buttons

[@uElectroPro]

The extra circuit board is Arduino mini that I used to detect 4 buttons on the steering wheel because of limited wires. Purpose of arduino mini is the convert 1 Analog input to 4 digital outputs for arduino leonardo. If you want to add buttons process is simple, just connect one wires of button to arduino leonardo digital pin and other to the gnd

[@uElectroPro]

@@israeljmtd1667 no you don't need to add resistors with buttons unless you want to connect 4 buttons to only 2 wires as I did. You can see the circuit diagram in the video description

[@uElectroPro]

@@israeljmtd1667 1) no you can't use digital input instead of analog input for multiple buttons (for arduino mini) 2) capacitor is used to filter out the fluctuation 3) Yes, shifters are directly connected to the (Arduino Leonardo) digital pin and ground (GND), and these are the same ones shown at 2:25.

How did the game identity your steering wheel

Sir, if I raise the steering wheel to 15%, I'll lose the steering wheel force feedback, how can it be misaligned?

[@ovc4a]

help people please, I bought STM32F401CCU6 and st-link v2 and I don't know what to do next

[@uElectroPro]

You can use EMC firmware for stm32

[@MahenderRana]

What's the torque? Or should A. Higher / bigger motor would be better OR B. two of these motor will be better. Thanks

[@uElectroPro]

The total torque at the steering wheel, considering 775 dc motor, 4:1 gear ratio and a steering wheel diameter of 9 inches, is approximately 0.0896 N.m. The choice between a higher/bigger motor or two motors depends on your specific requirements. A: A higher or bigger motor generally provides more torque and power, but can be expensive B: Using two motors can distribute the load between them, resulting in better torque sharing and potentially higher overall torque output

[@AminXPlay]

Can I do this with my arduino nano? Because the app which can program arduino to change it to game controller can program adrduino nano...

[@uElectroPro]

As I mentioned in the video, the firmware is only compatible with ATmega32U4 based microcontrollers (only Arduino Leonardo or Pro micro), so you can't use arduino nano for that purpose

I haven't tried this board yet. But arduino leonardo uses atmega32u4 microcontroller, which has built-in USB to serial convertor. That's why it can be used as mouse, keyboard or joystick. And this FFB Firmware is compatible with only arduino leonardo and pro micro.
