Any help is appreciated. Also I have send a email about the queries, Kindly respond. Thank you for awesome tutorial. This was by far best FFB tutorial I have seen
Bonjours! Après beaucoup de recherche pour construire volant et pédale, tu es le seul que chez trouver qui explique d'une façon très explique et détailler, donc! un gros merci a toi!
Oh my god!! Brother you really made the fantastic video!! And your video have all knowledge of about car controller that I need. Thank you so much Brother!!!💕💕
I started to build mine a year ago, didn't really had the time to finish it. I continued the project just for my power connector to fail. The plug got a short and the two connector welded together. :D
@@dankdadTech I used a PC power supply. I used a 12V wire. But I abandoned my wheel project, I bought a wheel. When I'll have the time I plan to make a 2 DOF racing sim.
@@AbdülkerimYilmayan Logitech G29, its not the best option, if you can get an older one used or new, go for it. Or if you have more you can get a Fanatec CSL DD Ready2Race Bundle.
In the circuit I have shown the connections for motor supply. Use B+ and B- pins. For the FAN, you can use the same supply if its operating voltage is same as FFB motor.
Excellent tutorial! .. I think I’ll use it as inspiration to build my FFB wheel .. I wonder if it’s possible to just replace the control board .. switching from an Arduino Leonardo to an STM32 .. It’s not that expensive .. I’d like to know what changes need to be made with this switch, but I can’t find much useful information online
Thank you 👍❤️ According to EMC documentation it says STM32 can be used. But I have not explored as of now on the firmware and schematic. Not sure if it is open source or paid.
Thank you!! My motor is 24v, 13A. But as of now using 12v, 5A power supply. If you are buying supply, better go with variable option(At least between 12 and 24V switching option). In some games if feedback is too strong, it is difficult to move the wheel when motor is powerful. In these scenarios you can reduce the supply.
the big motor is necessary and only with the encoder. I can make one without the need for a large motor and only with the arduino leonardo excellent video👍👍👍
You can also use smaller motor. But gear/pulleys should be selected considering the required RPM at the end. Even if you don't connect motor, steering works fine. But there will be no force/feedback.
@@techathomethank you bro even I had the same idea of using only the steering, gears, pedals and handbrake, without any ffb. But bro tell me one thing, can I use a potentiometer in place of the rotary encoder by connecting the pin of the pot to the analog input
@@tanishc5yeah of course, might have to change the code but should be fine. I built one without ffb following a video from a guy named Nzgamgingtech I think…. And he used a potentiometer instead. Anyways it should be fine
Hi, another great video!! I would like to ask you if I can mount 12mm round buttons with 3 pins (vcc, out, gnd) on the steering wheel. if so, which pins will be used and which one does it correspond to on the diagram? because in the diagram there are only 2 pins without specifying which ones. forgive my ignorance. Thanks in advance
Hi! It's a very cool project. With the help of your video, my steering wheel started working for the first time. It brought me so much joy! Thank you. But recently I had a problem with my arduino leonardo. Ports 8,9 burned out on it. And the driver is connected to them. Do you have the opportunity to send the firmware program? And is it possible to change the driver connection ports there?
what do you mean when you say if we want to turn the Arduino to normal, wait if I bought a new arduino do I have to upload " return to stock" hex file before I upload the emc hex file in order it to work?
No , not after buying the Arduino. After uploading EMC firmware, if you want your Arduino to have default firmware, then use that return to stock hex file.
Hi, are there any advantages or disadvantages to attaching the rotary encoder directly to the shaft? Is it going to affect performance and feel of the wheel in any way?
There is no difference in both cases functionality aspect. In my case, since I have used same pulleys for encoder and shaft, the ratio is 1:1. Which is again same as mounting directly to shaft. Just it improves your design. But you can connect directly to shaft and reduce some cost of the build.
it can work on any game? like forza horizon, asseto corsa, beam ng... this video is really good, its really hard to find a ffb wheel tutorial in this quality!
No, It doesn't work with Uno. Arduino Leonardo uses Atmega32u4 chip which itself has built in usb communication. So when you connect this , computer treat it as HID similar mouse, keyboard etc. But Arduino Uno use Atmega328P and one more additional chip just to handle serial communication.
I had the FREE EMC 0.96 version which was removed by the developer because it was very similar in features to the PRO version. V0.96 features the same XY shifter and FFB mode Which is the same as the paid PRO version 😅, luckily I was able to download it before it was removed by the developer. It's just different at the UI and still using Leonardo instead of STM32
LOL you Are really lucky😂 wasnt there a Feature where you can find the ppr if you dont know it i Kinda remember a Feature Like that, that Said something Like find cpr

Hey man,can we also use a potentiometer instead of the encoder with some gears and use it to mesure rotation and use the same software for the calibration?Do you have any recommendations or solutions for that? Anyway your guide is very useful and amazing.Good luck❤
You could do that by modding the wheel firmware, but just get an old inkjet printer from Brother and take the encoder wheel and sensor out of that. With potentiometer you will have a very low resolution.
Bro how you are powering Arduino? Can i power it directly through 12v 15a power supply? And I really appreciate how you are still replying to comments thank you.❤
You can use, still better to use the one shown in the video. Cost wise very small difference. L298N cannot handle more current, it can burn frequently.
Yes you can connect. Handbrake is there is pedals tab. For shifter, you can refer to button matrix in the schematics. All these things will be making videos, but it will take time.

hi, we connected everything as you showed, we installed emcutiliti on it, but it doesn't send any signal. (we haven't done the pedals yet, there is a problem with the steering wheel) the arduino lights up, but when we turn the rotary encoder, the program doesn't notice it, and the wheelcheck doesn't work with it either. What could be the problem?
hi bro, hope you answer. I have such a problem - the Arduino does not see the encoder. I connected 2 resistors from 5V to each connector. I tried resistors 510Ohm, 4.7KOhm and 1KOhm. None helped. On the diagram it is indicated in one 4.7 and in the second 1KOhm. What are yours?
You might get the values, but depends on the logic in that EMC software for wheel to function. They have used active Low state. So pull up resistors are needed to make default state as High. This is what I thought. Can you check if wheel works in EMC without resistors?

Thank you In the schematics, there is button matrix and it supports upto 16 digital buttons. These can be used for shifter. Tomorrow I will upload video on paddle shifters, in that I have shown this.

Hello. Nice Job. I'm searching to also make my own ffb wheel for my xbox one s. Will that work for me? Otherwise what I have to do to make it possible for Xbox one s?
Awesome Project again, I cailbrate acceleration and Brake. But when I turn one potentiometer The value of other potentiometer is also changing. What could be the reason? I tried a lot of calibration, and I couldn't solve it. Any help is appreciated
Thank you, You can replace the potentiometer and check. Even I was facing this issue earlier, After using this type of potentiometer(B10k), issue resolved: www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fm.media-amazon.com%2Fimages%2FI%2F61CYQGQz8HL.AC_UF1000%2C1000_QL80.jpg&tbnid=V9Se71hpLGu8OM&vet=1&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.in%2FElectroBot-Linear-Taper-Rotary-Potentiometer%2Fdp%2FB07QB32TD3&docid=g6yyn0PKGfBqCM&w=927&h=1000&itg=1&hl=en-IN&source=sh%2Fx%2Fim%2F4
can I use any other encoder under 500rs and what values should i enter in this software 14:50 if I am not using the ffb motor and the 600ppr encoder. And suggest me any alternative to the 600 ppr encoder under 500rs and the value i need to enter on the software. And what options to select in hbridge 15:10 if i don't use the ffb motor.
1. Using cheap encoder: ua-cam.com/video/7c1FGc-xNLc/v-deo.html 2. (PPR value * 4) 3. H bridge you can keep same. Anyhow if you don't use ffb motor it doesn't matter.
As per the EMC development forum this firmware supports only for Leonardo and STM32, Since pro micro also uses same chip as Leonardo, you can consider same pin numbers which are available.(I have not tried since i don't have board) . Let me know if it works.
Yes, it will change the output torque and the Rpm. I will give basic info wrt my motor, you can use provided online calculators and choose. Before pulleys- Motor Rated Torque : 0.87 Nm Motor RPM: 2650 Input pulley teeths(at motor): 15 Output pulley teeths(at steering shaft): 60 Ratio(Output / Input)- 4:1 After using pulleys - Output RPM: 662 Output torque: 3.48 NM I used these online calculators : Ratio RPM calculator: www.omnicalculator.com/physics/gear-ratio-rpm Gear Torque calculator: calculator.academy/gear-torque-calculator/
@@techathome What would be the ideal output rotation for the flywheel? I would like to know how far I can reduce the engine speed to gain torque. Is 600 rpm good? How do I know the minimum?
I have not explored real wheels, So I don't have idea on ideal RPM. 600 RPM would be fine. Don't reduce below that. Anyway this e bike motor has good torque.
Hey! I wonder how did you make the encoder to 'turn' the correct way with the Lite. Mine is inverted, so I have kind of flip the encoder that it faces backwards as opposed to yours.
Wich Wheel Are you Talking about because Most of the wheels for example pxn v9 have potentiometers wich cant work with ffb so you would Need to Switch it with an Encoder and Insert an arduino leonardo , bts 7960 Motor Driver , Dc Motor yes its possible but not worth it better make a new base for it
Even I am not sure about this issue, Even though the potentiometers are connected to different analog pins, there might be overlapping of values from ADC buffers. Not sure exactly.
When I click on the EMC program to configure the steering wheel and pedals, it doesn't give me the option to configure, look at minute 14:35 where that box appears, it doesn't let me configure anything.
@@techathome I've been busy with work, so I've forgotten about it. I found a reason why it didn't work, but simply, I bought a 24 volt motor, and I bought a 12v power supply, and it didn't work. Now it's working fine. Thank you very much for telling me how to do it. The goal after that is to design and complete the hardware, and since I'm working in sheet metal, it won't be too difficult. I'm thinking of making a two-axis motion chair later. The problem is that I don't have any knowledge on this side, so it's not easy to study. Anyway, thank you :) I'll let you know the progress later
great video, i am having trouble in transmission the forward and reverse function using potentiometer pedals sometimes work and sometime don't work please help
Great video, thanks a lot! I only have one question. Is it possible to use one arduino and driver to operate 3 axes with force feedback (3 motors)? Reason bring that I wish to create an aircraft control yoke with force feedback. Thanks a lot!
@techathome will do some tests using different arduino outputs whilst all 3 axes are connected at the same time. I need it as aircraft controls do move because of the wind, so there is feedback in the yoke/stick of an aircraft.
Bro i have a pxn v3 pro which rotate 180° if i only add encoder and arduino leonardo in my steering wheel does it work and give 900° rotation pls answer
Bro ! What wires🪢 can we USE here. 🤔 🤔 🔩 Like ARE these casual wires, used at home, or some special ones. For like connecting STEERING🦽 to Circuit board.
@@techathome that seem alot to me I can already bought new one from PXN around that price but building it ur own seem more fun maybe I should build one for myself thank you for reply
@@techathome im sorry I don't mean to compare the wheel but the price only after research for a while i think that it cost alot but also useful and better That's why I want to build my own
Woah Its really awesome. But I need help. My emc is inverted when i turn the wheel to right values goes negetive, when i go left values goes positive and i see no invert option. Other than it it working
Yes you can use, the configuration will be different in EMC. But these drivers cannot handle more current, they keep burning out frequently. Better to use BTS driver.
Not possible with this software, You can try this basic wheel from potentiometer and Arduino Uno, ua-cam.com/play/PL4B0LEKY-jrT4qVf352Es444lZY48uSvu.html ua-cam.com/play/PL4B0LEKY-jrTZEiCamC6Un8yo_Ea-i2FF.html
Yes you can use without FFB motor and motor driver board. But issue is, Even if you set the wheel degree to some value(example 300 deg), since motor is not there, degree won't lock. You can still move beyond and wheel centre keep on changing.
If i want to make only the pedals and not wheel can you please tell what modifications i have to do in arduino board or i just connect the pedal potentiometers and it will work?

hey the 22 teeth 60 teeth and 15 teeth pulleys are not available can you pls tell me which pulley should i get please tell me size and also the belts because i dont have knowledge about this. the only thing i need right now are the pulleys. please reply man and btw thankyou so much for making this.
Which motor are you using?
When I am connecting button and I press it. My wheel Center messes up and rotary encoder isn’t working for a while. What can I do?
Might be connection issues.

@@techathome I fixed it. Turns out it was wrong firmware 😂. Can I use different resistor on the circuit ?
good video I ask you, can I also connect the gearbox to this arduino and how to configure it?
Thank you
In the schematics, there is button matrix and it supports upto 16 digital buttons.
These can be used for shifter.
Tomorrow I will upload video on paddle shifters, in that I have shown this.
@@techathome OK, thanks a lot👍👍
Bro can I use this encoder for Arduino uno unojoy joystick gaming wheel setup instead of potentiometer? (For steering wheel only)
No,
Unojoy doesn't support encoder based input.

A question for the arduino to work is the bts7960 motor necessary or can it work without the x since I already made the connections. And no button works for me?🙏👍
BTS driver is only required for motor control and feedback.
Even without that, your steering wheel should work in EMC. Is that happening?
@@techathome No EMC key works for me, I even prescribed it and converted it back to EMC and there is still no response.👍

First your wheel should work
Hello. Nice Job. I'm searching to also make my own ffb wheel for my xbox one s. Will that work for me? Otherwise what I have to do to make it possible for Xbox one s?
Awesome Project again, I cailbrate acceleration and Brake. But when I turn one potentiometer The value of other potentiometer is also changing. What could be the reason? I tried a lot of calibration, and I couldn't solve it. Any help is appreciated
Thank you,
You can replace the potentiometer and check.

What kind of power supply u use .
This motor is 24v, 10A.
I am temporarily using 12v, 5A DC power supply.
can I use any other encoder under 500rs and what values should i enter in this software 14:50 if I am not using the ffb motor and the 600ppr encoder.
And suggest me any alternative to the 600 ppr encoder under 500rs and the value i need to enter on the software.
And what options to select in hbridge 15:10 if i don't use the ffb motor.
1. Using cheap encoder: ua-cam.com/video/7c1FGc-xNLc/v-deo.html
2. (PPR value * 4)
3. H bridge you can keep same. Anyhow if you don't use ffb motor it doesn't matter.
100w 24v my6812 motor which is the suitable power supply
Better to get switchable supply atleast 12v and 24v
Current rating can be atleast 10A or more.
can i use an photoelectric rotary encoder instead of a optical one as an alternative?
If it has same number of wires, you can use.
instead of arduino leonardo can i use 2 arduino unos?
No, this ffb wheel not possible with Uno board.
Check this very basic wheel using Uno: ua-cam.com/video/CPWPPu2dR7M/v-deo.htmlsi=bDIOomJP8aUj0mtJ
bro can we use usb instead of the DP9s
?
I USB only 4 connections possible. But you need more ryt?
This is amazing, thank you, I just have one request, can you please share the connections if I use arduino pro micro instead of leonardo
As per the EMC development forum this firmware supports only for Leonardo and STM32, Since pro micro also uses same chip as Leonardo, you can consider same pin numbers which are available.(I have not tried since i don't have board) .
Let me know if it works.
It doesn't work cause only Arduino leo board has the USB interface as i know.(BTY i dunno exactly,its just my thought)
Hello. Loved the video. Xloader stuck in uploading and never finished. Do you have any idea why this would happen?
You have to use genuine leonardo fake ones have different chip so software can't understand so it gets stuck
there are 4*4 button matrix, which is 16 buttons, out of that can I use 8 buttons for H-shifter and the rest for in game button control ?
Yes you can use in that way.

If ichange the gear ratio did something change like if i do 4:1 is it ok? And i watched all rhe diy wheels and best is yours
Yes, it will change the output torque and the Rpm.
I will give basic info wrt my motor, you can use provided online calculators and choose.
Before pulleys-
Motor Rated Torque : 0.87 Nm
Motor RPM: 2650
Input pulley teeths(at motor): 15
Output pulley teeths(at steering shaft): 60
Ratio(Output / Input)- 4:1
After using pulleys -
Output RPM: 662
Output torque: 3.48 NM
I used these online calculators :
Ratio RPM calculator: www.omnicalculator.com/physics/gear-ratio-rpm
Gear Torque calculator: calculator.academy/gear-torque-calculator/
@@techathome What would be the ideal output rotation for the flywheel?
I would like to know how far I can reduce the engine speed to gain torque.
Is 600 rpm good?
How do I know the minimum?
I have not explored real wheels, So I don't have idea on ideal RPM.
600 RPM would be fine. Don't reduce below that. Anyway this e bike motor has good torque.
it works with h shifter? can i plug homemade h shifer to the arduino leonardo?
We have already made DIY H-Shifter tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/YgJBAJG--uY/v-deo.html
Hey! I wonder how did you make the encoder to 'turn' the correct way with the Lite. Mine is inverted, so I have kind of flip the encoder that it faces backwards as opposed to yours.
Yes you can flip A and B phase connections. This happens.
Can I connect potentiometer for steering and connect with analog input a,,, is that work similarly...
No, that doesn't work with this firmware.
@@techathome ok bro.. thanks..
Is there any way to add force feedback onto a prexisting non force feedback whee??
Wich Wheel Are you Talking about because Most of the wheels for example pxn v9 have potentiometers wich cant work with ffb so you would Need to Switch it with an Encoder and Insert an arduino leonardo , bts 7960 Motor Driver , Dc Motor yes its possible but not worth it better make a new base for it
Not possible to add FFB on potentiometer based wheel
It works brother. But When I calibrate for One potentiometer the other ones also responding..why's that?
Even I am not sure about this issue,
Even though the potentiometers are connected to different analog pins, there might be overlapping of values from ADC buffers. Not sure exactly.
can i do this with my uno board and can i do it without force feedback?
This is completely different works with only Leonardo. For Uno there is separate tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/CPWPPu2dR7M/v-deo.html
When I click on the EMC program to configure the steering wheel and pedals, it doesn't give me the option to configure, look at minute 14:35 where that box appears, it doesn't let me configure anything.
It means your Arduino Leanardo is not detected as EMC controller.
Try to flash the hex again using xloader.
Hello! I'm trying to copy it because it's well made, but I bought the wrong motor and power for 12V, where can I fix it to use it?
Which motor did you purchase, can you send product link or photos on mail?
@@techathome I've been busy with work, so I've forgotten about it. I found a reason why it didn't work, but simply, I bought a 24 volt motor, and I bought a 12v power supply, and it didn't work. Now it's working fine. Thank you very much for telling me how to do it.
The goal after that is to design and complete the hardware, and since I'm working in sheet metal, it won't be too difficult. I'm thinking of making a two-axis motion chair later. The problem is that I don't have any knowledge on this side, so it's not easy to study. Anyway, thank you :) I'll let you know the progress later
Welcome ❤️
Hello. Can u help me?) I have a question, can i use power supply on 20v and motor on 12v? Thank you in advance)
You need to check voltage specifications of your motor.
@@techathome ok, I understand
Thank you very very much)
Can we use ac motor like one in sewing machine? Just asking
No
great video, i am having trouble in transmission the forward and reverse function using potentiometer pedals sometimes work and sometime don't work please help

How can I connect the cooling fan pls tell it will be helpful ❤
I have directly connected to same 12v power supply used for motor driver.
Thanks so much for helping bro I’m going to start the project soon ❤️
If you have budget, go with 1000 PPR encoder for better results instead of 600.
Sorry I have one next ask. If I will make with H shifter and buttons. Resistors will be also 4.8k? Or higher?
No need of resistors for button matrix,
You can refer to schematics
Bhai vibration ke liye kya lgaya hai yaa ye moter ki vajah se vibrat ker rhi hai
Yes Engine vibration effect is also from motor.
Great video, thanks a lot! I only have one question. Is it possible to use one arduino and driver to operate 3 axes with force feedback (3 motors)? Reason bring that I wish to create an aircraft control yoke with force feedback. Thanks a lot!
Not possible. With this there will be only one steering axis with feedback, other 4 just analog axis for pedals.
@@techathome thanks for your prompt reply! So to have 3 more axis with force feedback, you would need 3 more Arduinos as well? Thanks!
I am not sure if you can run 3 same devices together, game should also detect properly.
But why you need feedback for aircraft.
@techathome will do some tests using different arduino outputs whilst all 3 axes are connected at the same time. I need it as aircraft controls do move because of the wind, so there is feedback in the yoke/stick of an aircraft.
👍
Bro i have a pxn v3 pro which rotate 180° if i only add encoder and arduino leonardo in my steering wheel does it work and give 900° rotation pls answer
Yes it will work since you will be updating complete electronics.

Better to use BTS driver.
What is giving the steering wheel vibration?
In Euro truck simulator game, you can set engine vibrations from force feedback option.

Yes you can use without FFB motor and motor driver board.
But issue is,
Even if you set the wheel degree to some value(example 300 deg), since motor is not there, degree won't lock. You can still move beyond and wheel centre keep on changing.
