The truth is that it is a very nice job. Congratulations

[@netmoe]

Beautifully done! Congrats on such a well executed build.

[@criticalmassturbo]

Great build brother! enjoy her!

can you print my pieces in full carbon?

did you figure it out?

I bought the files but I wish there was more wiring help, specially for powering both the screen and leo bodnar board with the GX12 7 pin connector. Can you help me with that at all? Cheers!

I recently bought the two DIY models, are you guys going to do a video in the H005 version?

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

It is on the to do list, but we have a very limited capacity right now. :/

Is it a alpine f1 wheel ? Anyway incledible project, really !

[@bernibg4666]

Hello!! Does this design and configuration work in a fanatec base??

[@Travelife2000]

WOWWWWW. amazing! will be my next build!! its possible upgrade your engineering in future adding the led for gear shifting and for the pit?

[@Niek.denHollander]

what do you use to connect the wires to the rotary encoders? and what do you use to create the handles

Perfect build. Good job

[@TheMacmonty]

Hello, what kind of paint did you use for the grips? And did you give it a final coat of varnish? Thanks

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

Hello, Regular plastic spray paint + clear coat as final layer.

Hi, what software use to design stickers ??

[@MikeManfeld19]

How do you connect the screen? It's not shown in the video or in the instructions

[@coreymason3615]

They went out of business.

[@coreymason3615]

You connect the usb to an internal usb hub, along with the electronics board, then that goes to your GX12 or GX16. I can help you. send me a pm or EM.

[@kubagamer2171]

​@@coreymason3615 Is There any coding required for the screen or something ? And what would be the approximate COST of the whole wheel ?

[@Arif_Peyex]

Any posible update for leds?

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

Yes, there will be an update soon. Official mod will be also available, because I've got feedbacks that community mod might not fit perfectly in all conditions.

[@julien_bub2398]

What board do you use for the electrics and what software do you use to program it. I love the look of the wheel absolutely and I definitely want to rebuild it 👏👍

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

Thank you for the feedback! :) I used Leo Bodnar board for the buttons, and encoders, it is 100% plug and play. For the screen I used SimHub software.

I would love to buy this as a diy kit. I have a 3d printer but I’m going to need some of those medal/carbon parts.

[@imJGott]

@@hteksimulatorengineering have you thought about selling this wheel as a DIY kit from your company?

[@toutpt]

I wonder how full 3d printed wheel behave on dd like sc2. Most of diy wheels start with a metal front plate.

[@michaelboyce3227]

Def not correct... LOADS of retail & diy wheels are either all 3d printed or made only with composites!

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

I encourage you to try it... Depending on the feedbacks, we will add metal reinforcement option also if needed. :)

I'm trying to buy the blueprint of Sim Racing Steering Wheel H005 this time. How much will it cost to make this? I have no experience making something like this, is it difficult to make this?

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

The whole build will cost you around 150-200 euros.

[@vladstefan5772]

Hello! It looks awsome! I jus bought the F1 version. I was courious how do you get out on a single cable both: the Leo Bodnar board and the Screen. (Is the screen somehow connected to the board and I am missing it?) Also, how about the led version for the F1 rim? :D Also 2: How would you wire the leds as well? - another dedicated board? Or change the board completely?

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

Hello Vlad, As I can see, this is the most problematic point for the users. I will make a tutorial about this in the upcoming projects. Basically you will need two usb cables, that are connected to the 7 or 8 pin DIN connector. For the LED's the most easiest way is to connect them to an Arduino nano.

[@vladstefan5772]

@@hteksimulatorengineering I was thinking the same, I was not sure how to use 7 pins, as the 8 pins seems easy. Fot the 7 is like mapping the nulls to the same pin? Edit: tons of typos

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

@@vladstefan5772 Exactly, you are correct!

Hi! I am trying to build the F1 version. I am not sure how am I supposed to connect the 3 wires that come out of each encoder to the board.. I would really apprrciate some help! Thanks!

Shifters can be purchased separately. :)

[@Jabbawock1972]

Would love to see a good design wheel without any screen...but better buttons and decoder part...got already a vocore dash Board so anwheel without screens would save 1 USB connector and is way more rigid

[@grzyb11]

Is no one gonna talk about how sexy this wheel is

[@pattrick011]

how much does it cost to make this estimate

[@ryanokeefe12]

I wouldn't rely on dupont jumper style connections on something like this. They're horrible at staying in place and even if they do, the constant movement will loosen the connection. I'm sure it'll be fine for a little while but it won't take long to before you get intermittent connection issues. Get yourself some silicone wire, remove the header pins on the board and solder directly.. At the very least, use some hot glue to prevent movement of the connectors.

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

You are definetly correct, it needs some hot glue, otherwise you will have connection problems in the future, because of the vibrations.

[@ryanokeefe12]

@@hteksimulatorengineering You can get black hot melt sticks to make it look like "backyard job".. my favourite thing about hot melt is that you can give me a quick spray of IPA and the bond releases immediately.. As soon as the IPA has evaportated, the bond strength returns.

[@ali012alshair]

Nice Video

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

Yes, It is planned in the near future, with other wheels also.

[@salalatzo]

Nice work, looks great! Did you print the buttons and encoder wheels? I'll be building one for my fanatec 8nm wheel base, can this survive the torque?

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

Yes they are 3d printed. So far I have not received any feedbacks from problems while using it with a dd wheel base, so you can give it a shot!😎

[@jeftesantiago]

@@hteksimulatorengineering My question is, where can I find Al the hardware like the screen and all of that? I’d there any instruction when I buy the files?

[@dt2419]

@@jeftesantiago there is a list of required/recommended items when you buy the plans.

[@jeftesantiago]

@@dt2419 Yeah, but I was talking about the store to buy some of the hardware like the magnets or the screen. I ended up using 12mm x 3mm magnets and modifying the .stl file to fit them. I have almost all the parts by now, I only need to print the handles and a couple of parts to start assemble it.

[@MultiSteelking]

On what paper did you print the stickers? Do you have a plotter?

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

Just a regular sticker paper, and have cutted out everything with scissors to show that it can be done at home. :) Our main goal is to provide sim racing stuff that can be build with tools found at an average household.

[@saadniaz38]

How much does it cost to make this whole steering wheel. What wheelbase do you use and do you think ill be able to create everything with minimal computer skills?

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

It depends on what you already have at home, but I would say about 200 euros, if you start from basically zero. I am using a T300RS. I think you can build it without any problem. :)

What Is the full price of the build?

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

It is about 200 Euros, but it will depend on how much material, you already have at home. You can build it for less, and also you can use more expensive parts, which will increase the price.

There is a colored wiring diagram for how to connect the buttons to the Leo Bodnar board. The VoCore screen is plug and play, you don’t need a wiring diagram for it. The only thing you might miss is how to connect the usb wires to the DIN connector, which will be updated soon.

Was with you 1000% till i saw the hydro-dipped carbon fiber 🤢 why go to all the trouble making such a nice wheel to then do that? Honestly, skinning with prepreg carbon fiber isn't that difficult or that much extra labor... Or at least buy a premade sheet and cut as needed! Otherwise really nice build!

[@hteksimulatorengineering]

It is 100% your choice how you want to cover or not to cover the wheel. For this build, I've used hydro-dipping to see how it looks after a few months of usage. I was also kept the prepreg carbon fiber on the possibilites, but it would corrupt all the size tolerances of the build unfortunately.. :( For experimenting, in the future I will make an easier design 100% out of carbon fiber. :)
