The spring is hold with a lock nut, and I use micro switch and arduino usb board. The making of tutorial is here : www.diysimstudio.com/2024/05/17/diy-sequential-shifter/ The cad file is free.
Hi, in game I didn't notice a delay which can interfere with the braking. Did you try to make this modification of the hx711 board ? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0cxS-a837bY.htmlsi=6uv6m5BFBp9yLd3c
@@diysimstudio8225thank you for your respond, this methode is working. One more question, I intend to add handbrake in this board. Could you advise how to add more loadcell to the board?
@@Arif_Peyex You're welcome. If you want make an handbrake, you need another Arduino micro board, they are cheap on AliExpress (about 5-6€). I didn't make a diagram or Arduino sketch for two loadcell wired in one usb board.
Your shielded cable is doing absolutely nothing since you didn't ground the shielding. Next time save yourself a few bucks and just use regular servo wire.
@@alecont6488 you just solder the shield to a ground pad. But honestly it's not necessary. I built these pedals for a friend and just used regular 26 gauge wire unshielded. It's been fine.
@@BtownFlyer I made some pedals with arduino pro micro + h711, a load cell and two hall sensors, but I have EMCs when it comes to pressing and releasing the brake pedal, it is barely noticeable looking at the graphic, I use firmware and Vospascal Pedalbox software. When looking at some commercial pedalboards I see that from the electronics box comes a cable that they screw to the chassis, cockpit, etc. My question that, should I do that?? That is done by soldering one end of the wire to GND on the arduino board and screwing the other end to a metal surface ??
I will give you a proposal and a business idea. At the same time, I promise to be your first customer. Before you start making it, I will already pay you the amount for product. Buy or somehow get Fanatec CSL pedals. 2 pedal set plus LC pedal. The electronics, hall sensor and magnet are easily removed from the gas pedal. The LC sensor and electronics can be easily removed from the LC pedal. The regular brake and clutch have identical Hall sensors and magnets as gas pedal and are even easier to disassemble because they dont have electeonics. Create a CAD file of pedals that visually look like yours or similar, but with positions so that sensors and electronics can be transferred from the CSL pedal to your construction. The LC elastomer stack is originally about 51mm and must be at least 76 to add at least 2 more elastomers. Such pedals, CNC cut, powder coated in black, with electronics and everything from CSL pedals would be the business move of the century in the sim world. XD You have a large market that is doomed to Fanatec pedals because lot of us are console players and none of Fanatec pedals are perfect. Pedals like this with a compression spring, with hall sensors, with an LC pedal with a longer stack, and everything fits into the Fanatec base and works on consoles. I think it would be worth it. Think about it.
Hello, I don't recommend a load cell weight under 100kg. Don't worry, the calibration can be set in the setup of your game. The informations about the load cell compatibility is indicated here : www.diysimstudio.com/produit/diy-sim-racing-pedal/ in the "PARTS COMPATIBILITY" section. Best regards, DIY SIM STUDIO
Hello, The Arduino sketch works only with Arduino pro micro or Arduino Leonardo board. Arduino Uno board can't work with the Joystick library. Best regards, DIY SIM STUDIO
What orientation do you print the pedal arm aka "mobile part"? I bought the files but I would really appreciate 3mf pictures of the build plate with orientations or supports where needed
@@diysimstudio8225 Yeah website is working great now not sure what they were having issues with, I've got files downloaded. Printing everything now and waiting for parts to come in. Huge thanks for such a straightforward guide!
The Leobodnar is a little more accurate for the brake and more easy for the soldering, and all Arduino micro and Leonardo boards with Atmega32u4 will work.
Hi, I was thinking about assembling the 3 pedals with the load cell, I don't want to use the potentiometer due to its lack of durability and precision and I also don't want to have to drill the aluminum parts, I wanted to know your opinion about this and the soldering part , how am I going to put the 3 load cells to work at the same time and things like that
@@aalexrdrz Hello, I can't give you an answer sorry, but it will not cost you lot of money don't worry, the shifter was designed to be printed without waste of materials.
I am following your projects for quite some time and considering to build just to try how your designs work and use them in secondary rig for reviews ;) keep up the good work!
Hello, the sketch is included in the file of the two pedals (3D printed and stainless steel) you must download it to get it, I can't give you the sketch, sorry.
Pedal doesn't show as game controller when using IDE. Gas and clutch work fine in simhub, but not load cell pedal options in simhub. So do i need to ditch simhub and just use the IDE? Can't use both id assume
