Train Simulator Controller - Arduino Micro - AP Class 101

Custom Arduino Train Simulator Controller for DTG TS2021.
Video is testing it on Armstrong Powerhouse Class 101.
Arduino Micro programmed as a HID Joystick using JoyToKey to send standard TS keyboard commands. Compatible with DTG and third party addons. The console layout was intentionally designed to be a generic cab design to fit a variety of locos, EMUs and DMUs.
It was built with an aluminum housing with industrial grade push buttons and switches. Most components were purchased off eBay and Amazon. The housing was purchased from Digikey. Total cost to construct was about $150 USD for the materials.

Oh with gears now. Good one!

[@nopuedomas2006]

Great!! Does it need to be plugged to a socket or is it just usb?

[@whitsim8284]

Only USB. The controller draws minimal power so the USB voltage alone will suffice.

@@whitsim8284thanks for your answer. Just another thing, did you need to solder any components or they’re connected directly to the Arduino board? Thanks!

@@nopuedomas2006 Zero soldering and that was intentional. I can easily swap parts great way.
