I, for one, am one of those people who love the concept. I really miss being able to go to track days, but I can't really use my left foot with the same precision that I used to (And it's incredibly painful for me) I can't afford any of the mods to my cars to let me drive my old cars, nor would I exactly want to be tearing apart my Skylines and Silvia to do that, and my steering wheel controller is just as painful for me to use as a car, so this is the best of both worlds for me. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, from the bottom of the planet.

I have some ideas for the controller. 1 - Add L/R buttons (like regular controllers), could be used for shifting gears. 2 - Move/add buttons for blinkers in the front of the controller. It would add/change the following : - L1 and L2 Button, located in the front left corner of the controller. - R1 and R2 buttons, located at the front right corner of the controller. - Since blinkers will move in the front L1/R1 or L2/R2, you’re left with 2 unused buttons. You may want to leave the there, repurposing them for other controls.

⁠@@Adlevio, life has been tumultuous in Iraq for 30 years due to… well, America basically. Every Iraqi I have met has been very friendly and enormously skilful in their chosen fields. An Iraqi Doctor in Australia saved my son’s leg when he was 2 years old. If it wasn’t for him pushing Aussie hospital staff to do better, the result may not have been what it was (my son had an unusual, rare bacterial infection in the hip joint; If this Doctor had not diagnosed it quick enough and acted so fast with surgery and the exactly correct Antibiotic, my son would today have only one leg). Thanks to an Iraqi, my son is 20, able-bodied and doing body building now and enjoying life (and now my son, in turn, works with children who have disabilities to make their lives easier). I am confident this young inventor who shared this video will succeed in his career. If he succeeds IN Iraq, great. If he has to move for career advancement opportunities, so be it. Iraq (and the world) needs people like him. Imagine the blessing this device would be to disabled gamers who don’t have use of their legs and find regular controllers unsatisfying!

having the wheel auto center when move your thumb from the steering wheel to the analog stick to rotate the camera (since both are on the left side) just sounds inconvenient imo. a better design would be to have the analog stick on the right side, and replacing the pedals with triggers just like a normal controller since then, you can both rotate the camera and the steering wheel at the same time which removes the inconvenience of having an auto centering wheel. hope that made sense (love your content btw).

it still makes a huge difference to have a 900 degree wheel vs an analog stick and having the steering wheel in this small handheld controller form is great.

[@Gerardheime]

This is amazing work! As a professional game designer, I really appreciate what you did. Some suggestions: - Consider the ergonomics of the controller - smoother edges, firmer grips, like in an Xbox or PS controller. This will enhance the gaming experience. - Consider 3D printing a small, lightweight steering wheel assembly for your desk with a quick release option. You can research quick release adapters from Thrustmaster or ones used for camera tripods. You can have the quick release system permanently attached to your desk - snap in the steering wheel, connect via USB and you're done! Just keep in mind this will be less durable than a normal attachment :)

[@_LightLeak_]

Agree. This is amazing was my first thought but my second thought was, Carpal Tunnel. Along with the overall ergonomics, I'd suggest "R" and "L" buttons for the index fingers to be used for shifting, and maybe a repositioning of the camera joystick. Super cool work, well done!

[@killthegod8888]

it is quite uplifted, so it would definetly hurt the hand in the future due to height but also from ux-side - moving the 4 buttons somewhere to center would be way better, cuz people would probably missclick on them while playing also i would like to curve the pedals themselves to better fingerpositioning

0:22 You don't say "Iraq" like the natives. They pronounce it more like "E-Ruk", instead of the Western pronunciation, "Eye-Rack".

[@TurncoatTony]

Because they aren't speaking English, it's voice over.

[@mrworldwide5811]

Definitely sounds like text to speech, I doubt they speak English

[@DarkMug]

It's text-to-speech, my friend

[@koulematon7359]

Recently there's way too many people who just resort to using tts/ai for the voice and it is annoying.

Is this voice artificial?

[@HandsumVR]

Yes

[@Bobby_Rib]

Yeah you can hear the artificial fry

[@xXvidyaXx420]

I am not really the intended audience for this video but this is quite amazing, not regretting watching this!

[@therealnax]

Amazing ingenuity brother! The future is bright. 😊 Respect from England!

[@Team-Messi10-Ronaldo7]

I like how this guy can solve any problem and create something instead of buying things keep the work up 💪🔥🔥

[@reezlaw]

I love that you made something completely new that didn't exist before, instead of iterating on existing stuff. Brilliant. Now I lowkey want one hehehe! As others have said, this thing with the addition of shifters on the back would be perfect! Well the ergonomics could be improved if we're gonna nitpick

[@Diamon1s]

This guy solves us the most concerning problem we had ever faced having a steering wheel NINE HUNDRED DEGREES using materials which are indeed cheap. Great job man:) Fun fact u (could if you want) also add gear shifting like how on the Ps4 there is the R2 and R1 you could make something similar like that but the upper (R2) would change up a gear and the down (R1) will down one gear. And at the L1 you could have a button for handbrake. All of those are ideas that if they were possible I bet you would be the number 1 competitor against the other companies for racing products. *Anyways you just got a new subscriber*. I am looking forward to seeing where this project would be going.

[@stevenS1973]

The concept is awesome and you’re a gifted creator and entrepreneur.

[@DrownedLamp]

Ohh that's amazing. So cool. Props on doing it with the power outages. If anyone else is dealing with it, try printing parts in pieces. Certain printers can remember where they were, but if the powera out too long youd probably need to preheat and maybe force extrude for a bit.

[@SakuragiRed]

found this video randomly popped up, glad I watched it. Keep creating man this is pretty sick

[@mattshu]

Pretty sure this is going to take off like CRAZY bro

[@DylanWagerMusic]

This is freaking awesome

[@HiddenBlade]

This is absolutely phenomenal, you bridged the gap between controllers and steering wheels and I'd love to see what other designs you can come up with, the old ridge racer controller esque would be amazing :) well done good sir!

[@haron0ye0mh]

مبدع يا علاوي‼️‼️🔥🗣

[@cmfrtblynmb02]

well done man. It brought back all the painful memories from playing Eurotruck on keyboard and mouse

[@seansilva967]

1) your English is fantastic 2) this is an awesome project 3) I have a thrustmaster force feedback wheel and 3-pedal set that is windows/xbox one compatible that I wouldn’t mind opening up if it would be helpful for future projects

[@Bikes_N_Adventure]

This is incredible! Well done, the joystick addition is especially impressive 🙌🏼

[@ebkrunningeu]

okay. NOW THIS IS ELITE

[@Majisto41]

Such a good way of getting all of the features you need for a racing game in such a small and easy to use controller - a few suggestions if you're thinking of making any future upgrades: Repositioning the joystick so you can steer and move the camera at the same time with different fingers Adding a few more buttons/triggers where peoples fingers will naturally rest for more options and controls Tweaking the form factor so its as ergonomic and good looking as possible

[@grifinorange]

Awesome build. Pedals on the top as triggers and i am sold.

[@christian_coulson]

If you find that you're getting too much friction from your thumb when steering, try placing a small bearing under the thumb in the Disc with a joystick head on top. awesome work & design keep up the innovation.

[@guco5497]

Its already great. Imagine this as an upgradable and customizable blueprint secured by a patent which belongs to you. Because as soon as I saw the videos thumbnail, I wished it was a product to buy it 😂😂. I imagine this with four more trigger buttons on front for tiptronic gear, forced feedback with quality material, a button for your analog stick (like R3-L3 in regular gamepads), a small e-brake stick, vibration, customizable lightening options via client, bt and 2.4 connection, rechargeable with type-C, coming with a usb to type-c cable, a little carrying box etc etc. This product of yours has a potential of changing the casual driving experience in racing games. I would buy it. I loved it.

[@juanruizmoreno5181]

dude hear me out, this is nuts, if you keep improving this and making videos you are going biigg

[@stupidsmiley1199]

This is amazing bro...

[@pabumake]

Bro I hope some company comes up to you and builds a commercial available product from your idea and you get paid properly! Love the Idea and the execution of it!

[@Haplo-san]

Great work bro! We have electricity problems here too (a city with a population of 2 million+ in Turkey). In bad times, it goes out 2-3 times a day. And if the electricity doesn't go out for a few days in a row, we say it's good. It was cut off just today for 3 hours, it just came back. So I feel your frustration. Some say "geography is destiny" here. xD

[@i_like_hobbies2301]

I can see this turning into a much more big collaboration some day and it will flood the media everywhere with the success

[@CmdrPlatypus]

This mans asking the real questions! We need more controllers like this

[@dilbertusi]

I decided to look into the idea of this a long while ago, however slightly different. I used Mouse Steering for many PC racing games and really enjoyed it, so I wanted to attach 2 "pedals" to the mouse in place of the LMB and RMB buttons normally found on a mouse, so I could throttle and brake with analog control. This controller you made is pretty amazing!

[@Boz1211111]

very good idea too

[@ItchyDingo]

This is amazing, you're amazing, you should try making one that's more ergonomic and has shifter pedals by your index fingers! Again, absolutely love this, keep it going

[@Arkkukie]

Believe or not your project is really helping me in college❤

[@cmdLeBon]

5k subs ?? bro you deserve Millions, amazing work if i was able to build one i will for sure, Very nice, smart and simple idea. Manifacturers take note.

[@shugi-rk3id]

Very cool! What would go crazy with this is if the rotating part had springs to return it back to the regular rotarion like a stearing wheel. So cool! Keep up the great work

[@JFTSwiertz]

This is awesome. The only note i can think of is ergonomics. Car pedals are put in a spot that is meant to feel natural, i notice when you press the brake it almost looks like smaller hands might clip the acceleration. Either putting the pedals at a slight rotation, or otherwise repositioning them for other fingers to use could be a huge upgrade. Just a suggestion, i still absolutely love this.

[@Grigor_Arq]

Thats soooo impressive great project bro greetings from Brazil.
