- Hi guys, sorry for the long time, but now I am gonne to show you, how you can build this simulator steering wheel. As you can see I built a totally new one, why? Less complicated and cleaner design. The parts are easier to obtain and manufacture, full documentation. I don't like disassembling that what I've assembled once. 😊 In this description You can find the BOM list, schematic, 3d print files, laser cut pattern and machined part files in the link. With this video I would like to give ideas or inspiration for the DIY projects.

Hey Guys! Thank you the lot of comments and kind words! I appreciate! I haven't answered every comment yet, but I will in the next days. I think the most frequently asked question is the cost. For me it cost about 300-350 USD. But I don't know exactly, because I don't care. I built it for fun. I didn't make it for savings and I don't want to compete with big manufacturers. If someone takes as much pleasure in building as I did, it was already worth making the video.
I am not a simracer, I rarely play, I like much better the engineering. I built this wheel, because at the time I was interested in this. Maybe the next time I will be design something totally else stuff (But probably it will be a shifter - 99%).
There are some comments to which I will not answer. A short answer for these: Something is a tutorial or not? It totally depends on your skills. If someone can't distinguish a screw from a resistor, this really isn't a tutorial. For some badass genius a piece of drawing can also be a tutorial. Hard question. It is a moderately complex project, so it requires some basic knowledge.
3d printing and laser cutting? Yeah! Welcome in 2021!
If someone has no experience in machining processes, then 3D printing and laser cutting is the cheapest alternative to produce quality and intricate parts.
If somebody cannot understand this, I highly recommend for those people the 5-Minute Crafts videos. I am pretty sure they can build something cool stuff from glue and cardboard. XD
that is some mad skills right there yo
Perfeitamente esta sua colocação!! Não nos importamos com valores, mais sim pelo prazer de fazer! de dar vida a algo!!! TOP Parabéns!
Thanks
Como você descobriu quais resistores usar nas portas analógicas A4 e A5? Gostei muito do seu trabalho!
I personally love it I'm not trying to be rude but why not direct drive?
The renders and build quality, it truly looks like it came out of a factory
If it came out of a factory, it would've been made of plastic
@@OrionMCMXCV that's not what i meant but ok
@@sepitbeats It seems like you missed Alex Mitchell's capitalism joke
@@Fallice wha-
@@sepitbeats Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that Alex Mirchell was joking about how factories would use plastic instead of high quality material to cut prices
One word "Perfection"
Thank you very much!
Really great work, but the only two word would be : input lag. It's not your driving that makes this so wobbly, but the late input.
I'd really like to make one of these. Is there a way to improve this?
@@sityu82 i'm very sure ther is a way to improve that.
@TOSCANELLO FUN MOMENT Adamın adı Tamas Repasy o yüzden "TR" diye kısaltmış sanırım.
apart from the bench
Super smart idea to monitor resistance values for the programmable buttons. I probably would have a separate wire for each one and added a bunch more failure points. The use of magnets instead of springs for the paddles was also brilliant. Great job!
It ain't as good as you would imagine, and will require a good analog read at the other side, and the buttons with the least significant bits are prone to interference.
he didn't even monetize the video, this man is a hero
He can’t
@@demonorgoddes_8312 not yet ! But soon 😂
i just get an ads
@@dnilaimn that's probably so youtube and google can make money
It look ridiculously well thought out and machined, like a piece of professionally built, very short production run, ultra high end equipment.
I'm very impressed with your work on this mate.
Oh man, that was so perfect. The idea, materials, execution, documentation, and presentation are top notch!
Just one word: Awesome!
Hope to see a new part with the pedals and shifter assembly video!
Cheers from Buenos Aires :)
The most neat and clean build i've seen so far. well done mate!!
Okay, nevermind I'll just buy one.
beat me to it
@@marcomelbourne Other guys did it using his instructions ! Theres enjoyment to be had in building stuff too !
@@marcomelbourne Yeah but this wheel beats Logitech 10X
@@marcomelbourne this beats logitech in every metric.. besides if he has the money to build this stuff and live a comfortable life why stop him
@@marcomelbourne you do realize that this is way better than the g29 by a Longshot don't you?
Congratulations on your work, very professional, clean and direct! This would greatly help the sim racing community to have such a robust and easy-to-maintain steering wheel. Greetings
Thank you!
@@tomthomas21how much to buy all the part from you to assemble ourselves?
I love the way you made this wheel base. All love you put into it resulting this high quality in a simple design. 🤩🤩
Holly molly, the amount of craftsmanship is unbelievable, It's just perfect, I'm in love with this, thanks m8 for sharing this with all of us. Cheers and keep going strong m8!
Wow the detail in this build is just beautiful. Nice and clean and very well designed. Everything nicely terminated and heat shrunk functioning art.
Man this is amazing, I hope it gets in recommended to everyone and you pop off
I can understand the hard work behind the whole build. maybe it took months to build, yet you made it look so simple. The FFb also looks promising. Big Salute
friend, congratulations on the work!!! until today, your project was the most complete, beautiful and described that I could see until today!!! simply a job well done!!!
its very nice and clean project .I really love it .Because You put your parts and other stuff on your video description .So its very helpful for others . please do like that videos .Good Luck Brother . keep it UP :3
Thank you your kind words!
Really nice design man. It looks quite stable and powerful. That 180W motor is looking good. How is it compares to the "cheaper" commercial steering wheels like a Logitech G29 or Thrustmaster? I am pretty sure this is way more rigid and even stronger. Thank you for sharing it with us. Üdv Magyarországról :)
This is amazing, showed in YT feed just when I needed such video.
I actually came here for the electrical and the software side of the project. As far as i saw its a ready to use program available for it now. Back than when is was thinking about a project like this there were no such program. Good to see it became more simple. Anyways great video.
Long awaited my friend
The pedals my friend i want to see the pedals, what a perfection, you deserve all the credits, this is the cotent i want to see in youtube, learning with the best. Thank you for the free project.
Hi! Thank you very much! I used that pedals which I made for the first wheel. You can see in my first video.
@@tomthomas21 Thanks i had see it. First the wheel then the pedals
oh man, I need to see the video again now, I spent the first run headbanging! Great build, great music
oh my god. i've been waiting for this video from you over 9 months
thank you so much for making this video
A DIY direct drive version of this would be great.
I think you could just put the motor just in front of the steering shaft, right?
@@temp_uura i guess it would not have enough torque. the construction and software setup would be a bit different
@@ubaft3135 Yeah would've thought that
I build one with a brushless dc motor from a hoverboard
@@thijslenssen192 how? do you have a tutorial?
Very nice guy, your content, I'm trying to get all the pieces to make one, however in Brazil it's kind of difficult, more congratulations, your content was the best I've seen so far about simulators.
it's amazing. i could feel the tactility of the paddles lol
wow. good job. im impressed of your work. i always wanted an direct drive but its way to expensive. how much money has cost your projekt?
Yes! please send more videos like this. you should build pedals or shifters too :-)
yeah, please
Also really high quality animationf
waited forever for this to come out. Thank you so much.
thanks m8! refreshing to see a DIY person not put a paywall on the files! your channel will blow up with subs in no time
Quedó espectacular, saludos desde Chile.
wena po socio, hay que hacerse este volate para el forza horizon 5 o para el forza motor sport 8
Incredible, great job! Quick question, what would it take to produce a Direct Drive version?
Man that looks awesome, it's like it came from a factory nice job.
Thanks a lot, I was struggling in making those on my own! This will help me :D
It's like this video fell from heaven at just the right time. Now to get the guts to do this. And find a laser cutter
Not sure, but some companies that started out as a CNC-service-for-consumers and who now might be in 3D printing as well might do stuff like laser cutting as well. It might not be cheap, but it's probably more expensive to buy one yourself and have one with the power of being able to cut through 5mm of alumnium.
The question here is:
- When can we buy this at your website, in a box, perfect like in this video? :)
Great piece of hardware man!
Thank you bro! :) But I don’t think it would be worth it for either me or you.
@@tomthomas21 come up with a price that would make it worth it for you to make, somebody will buy it, trust me.
@@bazzleuk Nah, 400-500 is a very high end wheel, this probably cost at least twice that in parts, and I'm not even sure how you factor in the time to make machined and laser cut parts.
@@ATSaale Cost of machined parts would be based on the material mostly then the time to make x amount. Also the degree of accuracy expected for the part to function properly, plus tooling, plus electricity costs. At the point the guy would need to sell the wheel just to make profit, you might as well buy a cheap direct drive. Still awesome to see stuff like this, and people could really innovate on the design.
@@ATSaale well the dude said it cost only around 300$ which isn't bad at all. Just replace some of the parts he used with cheaper alternatives and you can do it for half easily. I personally designed a similar design and it was just 150$(200$ max) with off the shelf gears (GT2 timing gears do the trick) and stuff instead of CNCing my own, using thick laser cut Acrylic which is less than half the price of aluminium, and substituting the motor here with a cheaper one and so on. Cheaper than a T300RS for me while still feeling better.
Beautiful made and filmed, would love all inspiration on my first wheel build build but would love to build my own hub. well done
This is an awesome build. Great work!!
finally really detailed video :)
Thank you!
I'm actually building one myself after reviewing your video, but I have a question. Any idea how much torque this wheel is capable of? I've done some math to calculate the torque, but I'm curious how it compares to something like a Logitech G29. Great work, thanks for putting this in the public domain!
depends on the motor. The Motor used here can do much much more than G29 but in the end it depends on motor. Look for EBike motors with their controller or use a BTS7960 and hook it upto a MCU to control it
Hope you got a sturdy desk, motors in a G29 or even the Thrustmaster wheels wont damage but start getting above 3nM and it twists and contorts your desk like a chinese fingertrap
Amazing! Thanks for sharing your project.
The amazing job. However, the best thing is sharing everything. Thank you so much
In my opinion this wheel is perfect. Currently I waiting for your shifter.🙂
tbh there are many shifter videos out there just make it look better then them and build it better but use there ideas
look the gearbox SRT
Im starting to build my ffb wheel, do you have The datasheet of this motor? Or do you know whats The maximum torque of it?
Instead of laser cut parts i will use alluminum profiles used on 3d printer frame
Really nice work man, instant sub! (and might buy a pcb even though I may never build it lol)
Edit: just went to your channel and saw you have barely any videos like this...MAKE MORE!!!
his is more than a pro, everyone should see this clip on how to make a simulator. The best production that can be seen on TH-cam!
hes just flexing with his laser cutter while im watching with my plasitc printer and then realizing i can make it, with plastic
But it would not be as strong
Sure, why not, but did you see the table shake at the end?
yeah, but look his desk barely holds it on, i think here even PETG wont hold pressure, but can try, let us all know :D
@@ygalion I saw it and I'm kinda disappointed tbh, but why not, imma buy the motors and the circuit and try to make a better looking casing and I will try to make it hold good
@@OdysBrother yeah I'm kinda disappointed
Hmm. Steering buttons on a resistive matrix and sliding contact for taking readings is an extremely unfortunate combination. When the contacts oxidize or get dirty (and this will happen rather quickly, since they are not covered with gold), this whole system will begin to glitch badly. IMHO, it was worth using a "clock spring" instead of the current collector, which can be borrowed from the steering wheel of any serial car produced after 2000. Inside this "clock spring" there is a flexible stranded train, rolled into a ring, which allows you to rotate the steering wheel several turns to either side from the center point. The reliability of such a solution is much higher.
In any case, the work done is phenomenal, thanks for the video)
Yea that's my only real problem with it. I do like how he split up the button bus so you can press the buttons on the left and right at the same time. Took some thought. Honestly if all your doing is detecting button presses RFID might be the way to go. You don't have to have any physical contact with the shaft and logic AND power can be sent though RF, but it would mean building a coil antenna in the shaft and using some more electronics. The plus side you wouldn't lose any accuracy and still have a 360 degree freedom with the bonus of having more buttons or controls latter.
Sprung or sliding contacts have been used in automotive stuff for eons, almost every horn button or rim was connected via this method and a fair amount of stuff that had wheel mounted drive select buttons used this method too,and by and large they were very durable.In my nearly fifty years in the motor trade the only time I had to replace contacts was on a Talbot in which the owner had removed the grease while the wheel was removed and had failed to replace it.
I didn't know you could do this. This is awesome!
WHOWWWWW this is my next projekt when I finished the motion sim rig. AMAZING
Amazing work!!
It looks like it has a pretty bad input lag. That's why it's hard to control the car at 13:16. Have you tried switching from Arduino Leonardo to the STM32 board?
What do you say to me about precision and FFB? Can you compare this wheel with Thrustmaster or fanatec?
Have the same question
Super neat and tight work. Very inspiring!
Amazing work! 👌👌 FFB looks intense solid built congrats!
How does it keep track of 0 degrees (central position i guess)? Like when you turn it on or especially if you spin it more than possible in the car
I was thinking about this!!
looks like it has lots of power, how is it compared to thrustmaster or fanatec?
I haven't another wheel, so I can't compare now.
OMG. Nobody can do it like him. Awesome skill.
Nice! Only two minor suggestions, put grommets in to protect wires passing through holes and use thread lock on screws, you don't want stray nuts in the works.
shorting different value resistors in series to detect different button presses is super interesting, anyone smart in the comments know what is this process called? I see people doing it in parallel but they can only detect one input at a time.
looking for info on this too, just discovered this video. I'm still trying to understand exactly how that works. I can't imagine the resistance across the plates to get the data out of the wheel is constant? Not sure but interesting to say the least
A lot of money, a lot of effort and a lot of time for a bad result (bad FFB drivers, also you must customize every game). Just go to the store.
One of the best work I ever seen in YT
Nice work! Very clean design. 👍👍
Great work. Great content Brother. You've got a hardcore fan.
Wonderful work, man
Thanks for the video
this guy totatlly know what he doing.
nice job, thumbs up
Top Class work, Bravo, absolutely Brilliant !
Fabulous, surely more durable than commercial ones
After watching this video, I'm sure the 299 USD I'd paid in my T300RS is really worth... Amazing video man! thanks for sharing with us and congrats for the great job!
Wow, very clean build ! And awesome design !
Wow mate, just wow. Excellent work❤
Oh my gosh, that's great! i will do this project right now! i love it! thanks u!!!!!
WTF did I just watch? hands down the most impressive stuff I've seen in a while...
I dunno how many times I can like this video.
Best ffb wheel video ever man!
Bravo! Well done!
PS: After more than a year's use, is there anything you want to improve on or that you wished you'd done better or placed ebtter etc?
that i have to get more it to.. ty for the video.. have to learn how to build my own game room... this would be so cool to build "my own" / your stirring GJ!!!!
Great ingenuity and craftsmansship !
Wow it's super heavy duty, it looks amazing
this is super well made and well documented, really good engineering skills. keep up the good work.
Beautiful work..... Amazing details
Great work, my biggest respect for it.
It looks insane! Clean job.
Thank you!
amazing video bro everything was perfect even the game you choose
Good effort mate. It’s way too much of a project for me, but I love that you did it 👍🏼
Hmm...that thing looks like it's really capable. Congrats on the execution!
Youre a genius man, I dont know else to say.
Great job dude, that s look awesome!!!
