Since our last day of the open door I have another meaning about wiper motors. His VW Golf motors are absolutely silent and do their job for a seat mover (small force needed) in perfection. I suggest you also start with a seat mover like the Simforce GT or thanos joyrider which is designed for such motors.


hi sirnoname, :D ok 10 seems to much but 3 for me 3DOF spring! :idea: loaded sarrus linked driven and carried like this fast sketch :746
or a simple to make for me a manualy levelling by counterweight joyrider for different users 2DOF, but my friend nury961 as well now a member wants to do 3DOF so we need 6 :D I have taken the remainig 4 for the case not all are working for to have spare and send them back to supplier (I did not have seen them yet so they may have not functioning) or I may need spare parts like the gears on the not working wipers. Safe side :)

but I knocked on the wall regarding the electronics namly I am nob and here in Turkey I can not find a velleman k8055 nor pololu jrk12v12, but arduino and pololu 18v25 or I have to go to produce AMC 1.6 with the no knowledge of mine AMC 1.6 is harder to produce then the Arduino option but then comes the setup of it etc which sounds to me at least less chinese language. my be with some help for Arduinomega or something that I can buy here in Turkey. ordering thru Ebay is not a simple option for me cause the custom, which takes long and they think in a way that those things may have been a super spy computer part with 10000€ worth and then you haave to explain.

Desperate need for help :(

thanks

Please open a new thread with new topic.
Do not use velleman, use pololu (they send it everywhere) and thanos amc 1.6.

Hello all

Looking for ideas for large nb of axis for joy-stick I stumbled on this NICE Site

I like flying simulators especially IL2 and COD
I have designed an extra "box"to supplement my FFB microsoft
with :
Rudder
and 6 other axis for trims and other

Also have possibility to adding firmware commands by pressing ! button on it
At the moment I have Vector to Home
Also managed to receive data from IL2 to eventually command a FFB motor on a pedals set
At the moment the rudder is made with two simple pedals (from an old car sim driving hardware)
It uses 2 magnets acting each on a pedal and the signals are mixed to form the rudder action(POTs are cancelled)
I want to expand my 7 axis to 9 axis as I am cancelling a mouse action that uses 2 pots and replace it by action on 2 extra axis

That is where I got stuck INCREASING the number of axis to 9
I already use Report 1 and Report 2 in my HID Descriptor

Anybody got large number of axis ???(that works !!)

I am a retired electronics technician

If I understand well, you need a controller to put two more axis in. I suggest to you to use one of the Leo Bodnar controllers. I've been using this for some weeks: http://www.leobodnar.com/products/BU0836A/ . I've built a cockpit with real car parts, and sampling 'em with potmeters and they're going into this little board.

Hello from Spain!
I'm a newcomer to the site.
I was planning to buy a seat to play but I said: Why not making something more realistic?
I hope to share knowledge and ideas with everybody.
See you all.
