I created an easy design of a Flight Simulator yoke using 3D printed parts, Arduino and other small, easy to find items.
This video shows how to build the yoke. At the end I also did a test flight on Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020.
All printable STL files, assembly manuals, Arduino code and wiring instructions are available at www.thingiverse.com/thing:485...

Eu criei um manche simples para simuladores de voo usando peças impressas em 3D, Arduino e outros itens fáceis de encontrar.
Este vídeo explica como montar o manche. No final, eu mostro um teste no Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020.
Todas as peças em STL para imprimir, manuais de montagem, diagrama de conexões no Arduino e códigos estão disponíveis em www.thingiverse.com/thing:485...

Great work! Perfect combination of simplicity and function. Love it.
Great design. The rubber bands added the spring constant k. You need to add the c constant for the damper. Dampening can be achieved by friction. That will make the return to the center position more fluid and less aggressive. Again, great design!
Thank you for your work!! I've printed it, and it's amazing. I've never used anything other than an Xbox controller, but with your design and virtual reality glasses, it's like flying a real plane.
Ficou muito legal, parabéns!
Incrível!! Parabéns!
Stunning project!
parabéns, continue o canal, você é caprichoso deve ter grandes ideias
Nossa e com a música ficou muito lindo parabéns Danilo orgulho nosso da família toda um abraço
Sensacional!!!
I wish I'd have seen this before printing the other one. Nice design
Awesome Possum !!!!😀😀😀
So simple that it just works! Great job!
wow, thanks!! :)
Irado! Danilo TH-camr 👏👏👏
Demorei!
Thanks Danilo! Give some day and I upload my pictures and my code! Obrigado!
Lindo Danilo! Beijos do tio,,,
Nice work mate! Quite inspiring to try make it yourself rather than buy 👌
brilliant!
Hey! I love the design of this project
heyyyyy you have sick videos
@@fightsimverse Thank you!!
You do too! I haven't figured out how to make a Cessna Style Yoke yet, so you are years ahead of me :)
Brilliant
The most elegant solution I have seen so far. Really tempted to start building it right away 😅
ehh...just can't resist...3D printer is already working (as I sit on my ass as that is what we have 3D printers for) 🤣
@@Junyo nice! Let me know if you have any questions!
@@dvilardi I noticed today that you updated your project with the 25mm "Main Axis".
I went to three local DIY-stores today and, where I live, in the Netherlands, the 25mm size is very rare - basically not available.
So, I bought a 15mm steel tube and used Tinkercad to design & print the needed adapters. I used a different colour (red) for the adapters (your parts I printed in white).
Will post pictures of my project once it is finished on Thingverse in "makes".
@@Junyo nice! A friend warned me about the possible unavailability of 25mm tubes around the world so I uploaded its STL as well, as an alternative.
Glad to see you found a workaround, looking forward to seeing the results!
@@dvilardi It gave me an excuse to actually do something useful with Tinkercad (and learn that it doesn't actually do 15mm when you tell it to) 😅
Nice work! Could you please share your recommended print settings?
Amazing project! Is there any way to string the elastics between the front and back? This would remove the need to have the elastic towers.
How I'm impressed, can I have the Yoke and rudder Schema please!
OK, THAT's what the extra four wires in a CAT cable are for!
Excellent. I see one major issue here, the Rubber Bands, other than bringing the Yoke back to the center point the do not generating any resistance, on the Pitch , for example, if you measure the resistance on the PFC Yoke you will get something like 26/Lb/ In, at the end of the Travel .. maybe you should consider using springs instead ....
You’re right! Springs are more linear on that sense, but rubber bands actually increase resistance with distance as well (albeit not as well as springs)
Can you please show us how to wireing and setup the arduino with mobiflight ???
Olá Danilo!! Seria possível fazer com compatibilidade para Xbox serie s? ( já que temos novidades do mfs2020 ter lançado para a plataforma )
Hey man great video, I have a problem where only 1 of my axis works. Do you know the solution to this?
Hey, in the instructions it says to install flip but it doesn't say why or how it's used. Also, I tried to copy and paste the code from the .txt file into the arduino software but when i try to compile and upload it onto the board, it gives error messages.
começando as impressões para fazer um
Feito! th-cam.com/users/shortsqbSBeaN33UA?feature=share
when i plug it in it just bugs out ive connected everything correclty
I couldn't do the code part
a bit confused, need help with this
Finally wired the pots to my arduino, works great. still waiting on the other 3d printed parts.
Do you think I could add more potentiometer on the arduino? Sorry I'm new at arduino and wiring. Thanks!
Yes you can, just don’t put all of them in the same GND pin, as the current may be a bit high. Split the pots into both GND pins just to be safe.
If i’m not mistaken, the uno supports up to 6 potentiometers (A0 to A5). You can even merge my yoke and pedal projects into a single arduino or create a throttle lever, just change the portion of the code that reads the additional analog inputs.
Can you do an easier explanation of how to code this? i.e. more step by step
Nice one! Easy to build and quite cheap, and doesn't has arthritis like Saitek :-) one question though: why potentiometers, not hall sensors?
Thanks! I never gave it much thought actually, i just saw how the old joysticks i had lying around worked (they use pots) and tried to replicate it with the arduino. My electronics knowledge is (very) limited, i had never heard about hall sensor up until a few weeks ago lol
the last 2 parts to print...
Danilo, parabéns! Quero fazer um, mas fiquei com algumas dúvidas. Quero fazer um completo com pedais e manetes de potencia. Será que posso usar um arduino Uno igual o seu? E eu poderia ligar os seis potenciômetros na unica saida 5V do arduíno, sem usar protoboard?
Cara, obrigado! E desculpa pela demora ao responder. Não vejo problemas em colocar tudo num arduino só. Eu até fiz um protótipo assim no ano passado (yoke, throttle e alguns botões), tudo num mesmo Arduino Uno. Funcionou lisinho, sem problemas! Eu só dividiria igualmente os potenciômetros entre as duas saídas GND do Uno pra aliviar as correntes um pouco, mas zero preocupações. Abraço!
Good night Danilo.
First of all, congratulations on your project and for sharing it with everyone.
And secondly, when I download the files, I get two zip files, and looking at them they seem to be the same.
Are they the same or are there any that have changes?
Thank you very much Danilo.
Thanks! Glad to know you enjoyed it.
Did you click "download all" on the files page? (www.thingiverse.com/thing:4855469/files)
It should download only one .zip. If 2 .zip files were downloaded at the same time, it's likely that they are the same file. Let me know if it works!
Does it still work?
estava vendo sobre o assunto, é pensei... se usar um Hall Sensor, aumentaria a resolução do movimento? Será que dá certo ?
com o seu desenho seria uma manche altamente profissional, vou tentar fazer um, entendo nada de Arduino e desse Hall sensor , mas vou procurar... obrigado por me inspirar ...
Opa, obrigado cara! Eu acho que o hall ficaria mais profissional mesmo, mas eu tinha tanto potenciômetro aqui em casa que resolvi dar um futuro pra eles hahah.
Depois mostra como ficou o seu!
Olá amigo, mande um salve para a galera de São José dos Campos
Salve!
this may be a dumb question but can you use one arduino for the pedals and yoke?
I think you can use a bigger one, yes
Hello, I have an arduino uno compatible board, does the same code run on this board?
It should work
Você vende?
Could you make me one of these I’ll pay you too do it and a throttle and pedals the whole system if it’s cheaper then all the stuff out there I’m down let me know!!
Hey one question i noticed on the wiring page in the instructions had 2 wires connected to the same port. What do i do? Thanks man!
Yes, both potentiometers have 3 pins: the left and right pins connect to the same Arduino’s GND and 5V pins (in any order) whereas the middle pins are connected to each analog pin (A0 and A1).
So you must join the 5V wires (either by “twisting” them or by soldering) before connecting them to the arduino’s 5V output. The same 5V output goes to both potentiometers.
And the same applies to the GND (actually there are multiple gnd outputs so you can split if you want to).
@@dvilardi Thanks man!
What flight sim are you running?
Microsoft flight simulator
thanks for this easy project, how much does it weigh ?
Not sure, but definitely below 1 kg (i didn’t use an entire 1 kg spool for this project). I’d guess it’s close to 500g
Great tutorial but as always, with any of these projects, problems when getting the code to work. I cannot for the life of me find the referenced "YokeJoy2021" code file.
What code?
You mean for the Arduino.. I don't know nothing about Arduino or codes.. but I made my YOKE.. all you need is a cheap PC game pad or an old Xbox 360 pad and a soldering iron.. with a 360 pad you have 6 axis.. so you can make the yoke. And still have 4 axis.. You can make one for throttle and another for mixture.. or for trim wheel.. the sky is the limit.. I love these kinds of projects.. lol 🤣
can I use b500k and a500k pots? sorry I'm new to these things and it what I only have from a broken electric guitar.
If they have the same shape and size and fit the potentiometer mounts, they will work and fit just as fine. The arduino converts the 0V - 5V analog signal into 1024 digital steps. All potentiometers will work equally by selecting into that 0-5V range. The difference between "A" and "B" potentiometers is that "A" changes the resistance on a log scale (the more you turn, the more rapidly the resistance changes) and the "B" pots change resistance linearly (constantly proportional to the "turn"). But all those differences can be solved in the windows calibration and MSFS sensitivity curve adjustments.
@@dvilardi Thank you for the useful information. Can't wait to print this tonight. Are you gonna make a throttle quadrant for this? Thank again, regards.
@@projz7110 nice! Show me the results later! I'm currently designing a rudder/brake pedal controller and plan to release a new video on it later this week. A friend of mine actually designed a pretty neat throttle quadrant using arduino as well (thingiverse thing:4640769 by artlazza), so I don't plan on designing one myself.
@@dvilardi I've looked up the throttle and it's pretty good. looking forward to the rudder pedal. I have all the materials now and ready to print, unfortunately I got infected by the coronavirus so I can't print them.. yet.
does this work with X-Plane 11?
Yes! The pc sees this setup as a real game controller/joystick, just like any other. So it works with any flight sim.
Da pra fazer com arduíno Leonardo?
Cara, acho que dá sim! Se não me engano, a UnoJoy pode funcionar no Leonardo sim.
Does it work good?
I believe so! I adjusted the sensitivity curve to match the roll and it got pretty close!
Hey what's next video?
Currently designing a rudder+brake pedal setup. If it works, it will be the next video and thingiverse post. Let’s hope!
@@dvilardi good luck
i can not find shematic and code
Hi! In the description of this video you will find a link to this project on thingiverse.com (thing:4855469). There, you'll be able to download all printable STL files, PDF manual with schematics and Arduino code.
@@dvilardi thank you so much Mr danilo please ii have a question how to connect the project whit the simulator
I wish there was a detailed speaking video about the Arduino coding portion of the build, that where I,m having the problems.
th-cam.com/video/iAlyFzamV4E/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=AnissOulhaci also go to thingiverse link and there's a download to the instructions
Plz make a video on coding and also tell that will it work with x plane 11
Agora feito pra valer, Danilo! th-cam.com/video/_LWhoGRkzKw/w-d-xo.html
CARACA que animal! Outro nível!
I don’t have a 3-D printer so will the project still work or no

I just built the yoke and having the same issue. Did you ever find a solution to the calibration issues?
