A nano V3 from china is under 2 euro, the same goes for the TM1638 display. Then you need some plexiglas, bolts, nuts and something to wrap the front of the display. I did a similar build (used a cheaper tm1368 with only red LED's)
Hats off to your solder guy in this video!! Makes it look easy.. maybe I am just old and can't solder with a crap.. I am going on my 2nd try now because I keep screwing it up.
Just found your channel. Awesome videos. Looking forward to making some of these projects. Oh, and on the first corner of Brands Hatch, try breaking a straight breaking line down the middle of the straight and turn in for a slightly later apex just before you run out of road, then go full throttle to exit. It'll feel like you're about to come off into the gravel, but that dip at the bottom of the hill will give you a mass of traction just in time to keep you on the track. Feels great when you get it right.
Love to be able to buy the housing n Perspex cut out. What you made is awesome getting thing together and can’t wait to have it up n running. Cheers bro subbed
thanks again for this tutorial, even though the simhub software is a lot different now with your video i was able to set mine up. Just wished i had a 3d printer to house the LED's
Unfortunately not all ws2812 modules are equal and after building this all I got was random led action and yes it's wired correctly and setup correctly. After changing for individual led versions it works fine but for some reason not with these modules. I've ordered the ones from the same supplies as you hope they work.
@@Sergyvics not currently mate but will update when its worked out i figure it's cheap version of WB2812 stick. can be an issue if not soldered nice and neatly so hope your soldering skills are not the problem. I have new sticks coming but it will be a few weeks. The arduino code is meant to take out any issued data errors so Wotever states so I'm unsure at the moment keep you posted.
@@Sergyvics have purchased arduino brand stick and they work fine but cost $10 AU each so fair bit more expensive the product ID is xc4380 you can get them from electronics stores that sell arduino gear. Jaycar in Aus. Only bought one to try but this made the second wb2812 work properly if put as the first module. Slightly different size and spacing of leds so I'm still waiting for new wb2812 as the others won't fit 3d print mould.
@0:27 I'm building my own dash, and I need to solder 3 of those 8 led boards together and I'm wondering what that metal rod you put between is. Is it solder wire or something else?
This video is a bit old, but still relevant... but, does anyone know how to setup the lights so they function like the ones in the video? Of course simhub has been updated since then and it seems like it's impossible to get this same light coloring setup.
With modification of code you could use one. However if you do not know your way around C and arduino. It is a lot easier just to buy another arduino. The chinese clone arduiono market is great for this because the cost less than 2 or 3 euros.
I'm asking because there doesn't appear to be a sketch for it .It more seems like the Arduino Interfaces with the software in real time. Hence I question if it's possible to make it run as a USB device as well simultaneously.
Ah sorry, I didn't notice this uses simhub. It seems that simhub sends data over serial so to do so it must overwrite any sketch on the arduino. While I am sure with some trickery you could use one arduino it will not be easy. At least that's my view on the matter.
Great videos man...I´ve got one question? Is it possible to connect these led strips together to one arduino with 7-segment led display connected or each thing (7-segment led display and LED strips) need to be connected to own arduino?
Hey man, awesome videos! i got a question though, do you think it would be possible to make the 6 extra lights (3 left and 3 right of the rev lights) like they have on F1, Indy and other race cars to display flags, pit, drs etc.
Is there a way to buy the case to put the lights in or does it require owning a 3D Printer? Just wondering as would love to make this however not having access to a 3D Printer is an issue.
GMR166 I've checked. Shopping IS available at 2,5€ max, so it it is very easy. I will made the piece myself, to avoid you paying the 5€ file, as it is very easy to make. I checked it would cost 25€ on 3D hubs. I can offer it to you at 10€, shipping included. Are you interested?
Another question, at Sim HUB can configure the LEDS to interact with the Flags during the race? Can you recommend any doc or the formulas to apply this in Sim Hub?
Great video!!! I'm making a custom steering wheel for a Lamborghini Gallardo, can I also load this on an actual car ECU? Or directly to the rpm cluster?
Good video. I wonder if is possible to use the first and the last led only for to show yellow and blue flag and the other for rpm. It would be awesome. In the simhud i can´t understand how to change those properties
Hey mate, got a quick question regarding building this and the screen you made for the sim. I designed a box that incorporates both LEDs and the screen but I want to run just one USB to the unit. Can I wire both off the One USB or will it confuse it and not work properly. Thanks a lot for all these videos. Brilliant work mate. Also I’ll be happy to share the STL file for the screen/LEDs box once I have it all working.
Hi, i am having trouble with Simhub writing to the arduino (i used a Duinotech AT32 board from jaycar) - it wont finish the upoading of the profile, any ideas?
Hi! Thanks for this video! Do you know if i need to use an arduino board exclusibly for this lights? Or maybe i can assingn a pin ( like 6 in the example) on an existing arduino board in my diy steering wheel. Can I? Tks!!!!
thanks for the video,got everything wired up ok but for some reason only rgb leds 1-8 are working as intended,the 9-16 rgb are just plain white and lit al the time,any ideas?
Your videos are amazing. I've learnt a it just watching them. Have you considered selling some of your ideas. Love your BMW gadge video. I'm looking to make a driving sim and I'm definitely using that idea. Love your videos.
Great vid!!! Looking at doing my own based on this. All the links from the perspex downward seems to not want to open? Where do I get the perspex and could you please supply the detail on the wire you used as well as the nuts and screws sizes as well as the detail on the soldering?
I am making a f1 wheel project. I have maped the button with your arduino library, as well as the rotaries and a clutch pedal. I can use the same arduino for simhub or this will overwrite the rest? I don't if I was clear... Not really good english
Once the Arduino is flashed do you still need to run the SimHub software and settings on the host machine for the LED's to function correctly? or is it just plug and play with any PC?
Hello, I have installes an ArdNano making some flag signals and a optical spotter mark for me. Now I will do the REV Lights as well. So I bought s new Ardnano and all the other stuff, assemble it and try to make it running. Do I have to make a new Ardunio SetupTool - is it a multiple or a single ArdBoard? Or can I put the LEDs on the first Board as well?
Hello. is there a way to buy only one Arduino controller and use it for this and the gear display? I really don't want to have two separate USB cables.
@amstudio - I have purchased the design, sent it for printing and it seems that is is 1cm smaller in length and the WS2812B-8 LEDs do not fit in it ?!?! Any advice would be much appreciated!

Dude i’m so excited that i found your channel! By far the best DIY channel ever💪
For anyone in the US, Perspex is called Plexiglass (1/8" grey tinted plexiglass). If you had trouble finding it, that may help.
Man i need to get me a 3d printer, nice job, added to my build list
I built mine out of wood
Ok… my hope is restored for searching up super specific videos… thank youuuuu
this stuff is lit, i might consider making this if i really need this but im getting a new steering wheel first

Can you run multiple items on the same arduino.
I want to wire this shift light, the gear shift display. Then a button box on another arduino
Another great video!! Keep spreading the SimHub good news ^_^
SimHub is an awesome piece of software and keeps getting better!
Would it be possible to wire this into the button box or would you need a seperate Arduino just for the LED's?

do you need to code in arduino for this project or you just have to plug it into simhub
I dont have a 3d printer is there any other case our there?
Its a good Question.
Iam from Gerwany and search also this case.

Also how high temperatures were used when soldering?
Please tell me bro :( It's holding me back from doing this mod, it wouldnt be possible to connect those 2 boards with wire only..
Its just a small piece wire from a resistor. Temp was set at 350c
wee got it work with ACC> awesome share

Nice job! Do you think it would works on Xbox? Or only pc?
After all this, can we still use the same arduino board to some buttons and switches? Or we only can use for this leds.
about the wires? have you taken 2 usbs for that?
and where is the arduino is going to?
