hi, i'm building your shifter, and in the arduino shows an error while compiling, can you help me? thanks
Hi Jose, I found the issue and re-uploaded the code. You can add Joystick_ Joystick; after the #include or re-download the project
Feels like the early days of AMStudio!
Amazing!!! You have serious talent bro!!
This deserves more love than its getting. Nice job! Thank you for your effort.
Thanks SuperCy I really appreciate it! I’ll keep them coming!
More videos please. Like your style and content. Love DIY sim gear.
Thanks!! I do have a video on progress, we just have some weird steel shortage that I’m dealing with 😜
First video? Damn boy, great job! Blown away by the vid and the great design that you have given to everyone. Remember me when you get to be a big, famous TH-camr 👍👍
Hello, I'm writing from Brazil. Thanks for sharing your project. I mounted it.
I'm sooooo 3d printing that DXF. Thank you very much!
This is amazing! Firstly the build is first class and the quality of the video; 10/10. You set the bar high for us planning our first videos.
Thanks so much!
nicest looking diy shifter ive seen yet, good job
Thanks so much!
Great video!
Great vid, Love that fact that from there you can do custom shifters dans just retrofit them onto the assembly. I can already see myself make a maple shifting rod with a resin knob. Keep up the good work.
Thanks!! Yip to can pretty much do anything as long you have right hole spacing
Awesome shifter build bud!
Thanks!
Very nice workmanship
iambradderz q Thanks!
Hat off! Amazing job! And thanks!
Anders Matsson Thanks!
Nice one teacher!
Thank you very much for the file
Thank you!
Just finished cutting this on my waterjet, super excited to finish this
Brilliant!!!!
UOLLLL!!!! Nice project! Like!
Sooooo cool!!!
brilliant!
Sick!
Super Sir Salute your hard work brother 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯🙂
Thanks so much!
This is sickkkk
Thanks!
Well done Donny.....beast with the DIY and on the SIM track. I have spent my time chasing you around as I try to get faster but hey, I am only two months in to this SIM racing AWESOMENESS. I want to upgrade my diy handbrake with a KY-024 hall effect sensor via Pro Micro of course, Any idea if your code here would work to take the sensor info and apply it to say an X axis?
Ha thanks @CakeEaterPro, feel free to friend me an hop into a session! You should be able to use the Joystick library to map the hall sensor output value to an x,y,z axis. I don’t think it would be exactly the same as my code but probably very similar. Keep racing!
Everything perfect, only downside is cut out for microswitches. (two wide holes in the middle.)
Hye bud...are you based in CT?. NICE BUILD BTW
great job !!! can i use MDF (3mm) in the project?
Thanks! It might work but would expect it to break at some point, I initially built the prototype out of polycarbonate and that ended up breaking
Bonjour jolie travail avait vous le fichier dfx pour fabriquer ces pièces je compte faire le mm merci je m abonne
Can you do a hand brake video too please
Sick build man! Just curious, how much did the cutting cost?
With the steel included I paid a total of $40
Hello Donny! i made this shifter and handbrake thnx so much for sharin this!
Hey!! This is so great!!! I would love to see what you have done!!
@@donnycrash8954 hmm how ı can reach u ? i really want to show u ! btw i made a thing too yesterday
Awsome ou. EK het ou keyboard gebruik vir my een inplaas van arduino. bai dieselfde soos jou een maak ek het handbrake en ook by gesit. handbrake wil ek verander met potentiometer maar dan moet ek ardiuno gebruik. Maar jou een lyk awsome. Thanks
If the design is two in one
The two add up very long
The length should be designed to be shorter
It looks perfect
Hello, i'm building your shifter, and the arduino shows an error that "Joystick.h" is missing when its really not, i haven't moved it or anything, its still in "The Beast" folder. Got any idea how to fix it? Thanks (I am on Windows)
Hi Saul I’ll take a look at the code in a bit (sorry it’s been a while) and get back to you asap
Hey Saul, I’ve updated the documentation drive.google.com/file/d/1YP1Fqo0efeL5htnw6-PnzyR6YDOxzpbO/view?usp=drivesdk please lmk if it works
@@donnycrash8954 Hello, i come back with good news, it works! I appreciate your very quick response time and effort. Thanks again!
have you gotten this to work in Forza Horizon 4? I built one of these and love the feel but can't seem to get it working in the game. I have gone to the settings and mapped it to "shift up" and "shift down" but once I start playing nothing happens
Hey I’m so glad to hear you like the feel! I unfortunately don’t play much Forza so haven’t tried it yet
forza unfortunately doesnt support multiple input devices last i checked. i have a handbrake connected via old keyboard pcb so its mapped to a keyboard button. as soon as i pull it my wheel loses input etc. maybe not the same issue as you but the only way to add a handbrake or sequential shifter to forza is to have them plugged in via the same usb as the wheel. i.e you could solder to one of the buttons on the wheel. it sucks so hopefully they will fix this issue in future games.
Keep recieving this error when trying to upload, any ideas?
Compilation error: no matching function for call to 'Joystick::Joystick(int, int&)'
Hey! It seems that either the Jostick library or the function has changed. I’ll take a look sometime today and let you know!
Hi @DonnyCrash👋🏽 I've been trying my best to get parts for the beast as well as time in between dealing with my kids but I'm struggling a bit. I get like an hour or two at night after my shift to spend time on dirt 2.0 or assetto if I'm lucky and the kids are home fulltime because of this OMICRON nightmare🥺
Would you consider building one to sell to me? I'm living in Cape Town and I'd very much be willing to support your brand🙌🏼
total cost ?
it also works on the ps4 on the logitech g29?
Hey I haven’t tested it, I’m im doubtful that it would work on a PS4
what mm thickness are you using for metal
Hey Charlie, I went with a 3mm mild steel
I have a question how do I get these things in the pdf cut out with a water cutter my uncle has a machine that can do that but hé Needs sizes to put it in the computer I want to build this becouse it is cheaper
Also how do I connect it with a micro usb or a normal usb 2.0 cable
Hey Jelte! So the drawings are actual size so you can take measurements directly off of them using cad or fusion 360
@@donnycrash8954 thx
@@donnycrash8954 my uncle say that hé needs exact measurements to make it is is not a water cutter but another precisely machine to cut the steel
there is little error in code. you should add // Create Joystick
Joystick_ Joystick; without that compiling gives an error. Otherwise great project!
Thanks for pointing that out! I’ll make sure to rectify it!
I think the Aluminium rod (300mm) should be 3mm, not 6mm, cause I just check the CAD file, the hole is just 3mm diameter, am I right?
So the standoffs (connecting side a to b) are 3mm and the main connecting rods for the handle and spring assemble are all 6mm
@@donnycrash8954 Thank you so much for your reply, really cool design, I starting to make it now, I will get the parts tomorrow.
@Daniel Walder Haha, Yes, I did it, but the switch is easy to broke, I am thinking how to improve it.
@Daniel Walder Yes, total is just need about USD50 for the shifter, I've made copy HE pedal before.
How much of the total price was for the making of the parts? My dad is an engineer so he has a CNC machine (computer numeric control) so I think I can just have him put the files in and it’ll pop out the pieces.
Vous êtes formidables merci pour les fichier mon pote vous devriez faire une boîte H vous gagnerez plus d abonner c'est un conseil car boîte H tous le monde cherche
Merci pour le conseil, je vais essayer d'en concevoir un!
@@donnycrash8954 je suis sur et certain que vous aurait du monde en abonner merci pour vos fichier et votre partage vous êtes généreux
Very nice Job man you are big man!!! 🙂...any chance send me the files to email ?
Hey there is a download link in the description 🙂
Hello big brother
I will send the picture and dxf file to your mailbox again
please check
Thank you!
Thanks I will do!
Hello big brother
I contacted you in your email
Hope you check gmail.com mailbox
Thank you!
Hey! I do, that is honestly such a cool upgrade, do you mind if I do a handbrake build with some of your ideas?
@@donnycrash8954 Thanks for your design
thank you very much!
@@donnycrash8954 I have one more mind
Should I talk about
You can upgrade to two in one
Sequential sequence shifter at the back
Handbrake can synthesize two in one in the first two dxf formats
Handbrake handle high sequence handle low
@@donnycrash8954 You can watch my video handbrake and sequence shifter
Thank you!

This is great!!
How is it supposed to be something everyone can make easily but you start out by saying I used a water jet to cut it wtf bro
I think you're in South Africa aren't you? That is not a Third World country, it is - or rather was - a First World country...
*The First World:* this term was coined during the Cold War to refer to the United States, and all the countries which were politically aligned with it (the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, etc.).
*The Second World:* this referred to the USSR and all the countries who were politically aligned with it.
*The Third World:* this was all the remaining countries in world.
So, contrary to popular belief, the Third World did NOT refer to poor countries, it referred to countries which were neutral, or didn't really play a part in the Cold War. Some of the wealthiest and most civilised countries in the world - Switzerland, Sweden, Ireland, and Austria to name just four - were Third World Countries, while countries like South Korea, which certainly wasn't a wealthy nation back in the 1950's, was a First World country.
Just to be clear, most of Southern Africa - Basutoland, Bechuanaland, Swaziland, Rhodesia, Northern Rhodesia, and Nyasaland - was actually First World, because it was under British rule, while Angola and Mozambique were Second World, for a while at least, when Portugal was aligned with the USSR. As I said at the beginning, South Africa was a First World country because it was aligned with the West and there were major fears of communism there, for obvious reasons!
Thanks Phil!
@@donnycrash8954 I used to do a lot of International business travel, and at one stage I went to South Africa. I was in Cape Town for about 1 month. Usually, when you're on one of these trips, everyone is very nice to you, but at the end of the day they go home to their families, and you are stuck - exhausted and alone - in some city somewhere, eating a cheeseburger in the hotel. The ONLY exception to that was South Africa. EVERY SINGLE DAY I had people inviting me over for dinner with their families - I was having to decline invitations because I was booked - and on the weekends I was being taken on safaris and ... well ... all over the place. Honestly ... it was, WITHOUT A SHRED OF DOUBT, the most friendly, welcoming place I have ever been, and it made for an absolutely wonderful trip that I still remember fondly.
I studied electrical engineering and I was there to install a warehouse automation system I had designed the electronics for, and to train the guys over there in how it all worked, so they could maintain it, and install future systems themselves. I haven't worked in electronic design for quite a few years now - I've been doing system work for financial companies in Australia - but I am building a racing SIM now, and need a shifter and a handbrake for my Thrustmaster TX, so I've decided to build them myself, and your video has been incredibly helpful thank you!
