Dude, thanks so much for this. Your explanation of the hall effect sensor was fantastic. It helped me alot with regard to a project I've been banging my head against a wall trying to figure out.
Great video and really great ideas about the mechanical side of a custom joystick. Thank you! And, FYI the Hall Effect is named after Edwin Hall who discovered it in 1879.
It is an amazingly well designed joystick, the indipendent set of springs really makes it stand out from many commercial alternatives, even the t16000 from thrustmaster that also uses hall efffect
Wow, this is amazing. Looks like i'm off to go buy some more M3's. really looking forward to seeing the files for the throttle and the rudder pedals. I always really appreciate people like you sharing and uploading projects like this, as sometimes responding to the community, creating build guides etc. is as much effort as doing the project in the first place!
Good luck with the build. Send a photo when you get it working! I uploaded the throttle and pedals just now too: www.thingiverse.com/thing:4578174 www.thingiverse.com/thing:4578169

This is a very good explanation of using Hall Effect Sensors in Flight Sim applications. I think the materials used to construct the Joystick could be better. But as a starter project for someone wanting to explore building their own kit, this is one of the better beginner projects on UA-cam.
When i was unsuccesfully searching for x56 hotas joystick in my country (long gone due to Covid) everyday, then i see this! Finaly i can enjoy some dcs that i got and sitting in steam space for months due to lack of joystick. Thank you so much!
I'm a physicist and you explained it better than my university teachers 😂. Very nice and smart project indeed, learnt so many practical things, thnx a lot.
Great video! Though you might wanna look up the Hall effect. It's called that because it was discovered by Edwin Hall which is also why the "Hall" in Hall effect is capitalised. But in the end it's just a neat fact and not that crucial to the project. Your explanation of the effect was quite nice though. Might help people remember what it's called and what it does more easily. Keep up the tinkering!
Very clever designs and very inspirational. I ordered my magents and hall effect sensors right after watching this. Always wanted a proper throttle quadrant - all while not offending my bank manager.
Awesome video. I've been building a DIY throttle using an Arduino to use alongside an old joystick and had been thinking of how to do a joystick next. Great to see that the mechanism can actually be really quite simple and put together with cheap parts.
I love the ATmega32U4. For my master's thesis I developed an experimental type of solid state 6 dof joystick and I used this board also! I also used a ATmega32U4 board on a small bldc motor driver because it has a timer, timer4, that has 3 comparators on it so you can get the 3 phases setup super easy compared to timers without 3 comparators. Nice little chip
Great Project. I've wanted to create something similar to this and I will use this as a plan. but here is something, that I think is a necessary correction to the explanation of the Hall Effect Sensor: The Hall Effect is named after Edwin Hall, who found this phenomenon. The Hall Effect comes to play if a conductor, which is connected to a voltage supply, is placed perpendicular to a magnetic field. The larger the perpendicular part of the conductor is, the bigger the hall effect. The Hall Effect itself causes a voltage in the conductor perpendicular to the voltage supply because of Lorentz-Forces. The Hall Effect Sensor can detect and amplify this voltage and output it through its data pin. The described "hallway" is especially practical, because it creates a linear line which the sensor can rotate on, giving a linear output.
My Genius Brother. I'm So Glad I Found You. I've been here awhile just wanted to give you a shout out. you deserve the 'LOVE' and as always Thanks again for the Tech Info. I Always use your Videos for Inspiration
I play some FS19, and was thinking of getting a second joystick. But building one was always in the back of my head, Thank you very much for this. It is really appreciated. The easy part is downloading the stl's hehe.
Came across your video while researching the possibility of converting the poorly designed Valve Index VR controllers to use hall effect joysticks. This gave me some ideas so thanks.
I think this is such an awesome project, but since I already have a decent joystick, I would love to see more of an in depth revisit of the throttle system you designed. I am currently building a DIY stream deck based on the same principles, and I was thinking of being able to dual purpose that with flight sim, Elite Dangerous, and a few others, but I would definitely need a throttle system to go along with it, and it would be nice to have something like yours. Thanks for the awesome video!
This is fantastic. Very nice work! Always interesting to see the previous versions and what went wrong, thank you for that. Currently the Thingiverse pages are not operating for these 3 projects, I hope it for an update you're doing...? Either way, I really look forward to checking it out in detail. Thank you for this
thanks so much for this tutorial! i have a project ive been stuck on for so long on how i wanted to make it work but this is the Perfect mechanism im looking for. updates to come!
I am verry interrested in this Project but i would use it for my Farming simulator. Can you please make a Video how you connected all the wires on the pro micro and how to connect some more switches and also how to write the software. Because i don't understand anything about programing and i think i am not the only one.
There is a wiring diagram here: www.thingiverse.com/thing:4576634/comments#comment-3639820 It's very straight forward. For the programming, you can see this video, it is very similar: ua-cam.com/video/YAbi_AqF7aQ/v-deo.html
@@AkakiKuumeri Am I wrong in saying that your wiring diagrams only show the connections between switches and Hall sensors to the Arduino, but not to the PC (via USB)?
@@sz72909 Do you need a wiring diagram to show you how to plug a USB cable from the USB port on the arduino the the USB port on the PC? Arduino boards normally have a USB port on them and you plug them into a PC USB port to program them. (smaller boards like this are often mini usb connectors on the board) Once the boards are programed they're non volitile so you can unplug them and the program will work next time you plug it in or power it with a battery. If you do a search on Amazon.com you can get some nice close up pictures of arduino boards. I'm pretty sure that once you've got the device built and the program on it, you'd unplug it and replug it and windows will recognize it as a generic game controller. Then you'll set up the various control axis in your game.
Dude use a bodnar board, no soldering or programming required, and then get an ebay joystick for commercial use, they are like £12 or something, and voila, home made joystick, no soldering required. Also, the bodnar board will allow you to hook up several joystick thingies, because it can handle 8 axis, 32 buttons, and a bunch of potentiometers and other switches.
In my country it would be very expensive do the fact that I would be obligated to buy an Xbox controller first then 3D print all the double yoke system ,so could you please do a 3D printed real Cessna or Piper yoke with this hall sensor?
One thing I think people need to be aware of, I believe you need a specific type of Hall Effect sensor, I was super hyped to build this controller and skipped researching and happened to buy 3 lots of wrong ones which unfortunately output digital signal instead of analog. I gotta find a purpose for them soon.
great tutorial. I will like to do my own joystick too. Glad you made this. Btw you should check your configs in your slicer software :) you got huge holes in your 3d printed skin :D

just as a point, REAL joysticks (or flight controls) do not have a detent. The pressure on the controls comes from the pressure of the airflow against them.
I think the word you looking for is linear when the sensor is dead in the center of the field. By the way nice work on the joystick, thou rough but that's what expected from prototypes :)
The only thing I am doing differently is I am going to try the Leo Bodnar board instead because there is no programming or soldering and it is built especially for Human Interface Devices. This is a simulator, not a game.
I'll be using an xbox joystick sensor module, kinda worried it'll be too flimsy. To mitigate, I'll use the joystick as a stopper that will make sure that the module doesn't overextend, to make sure I don't break the module.
Welcome! Sir! I noticed you have your own-made throttle for the flight simulator. Could you please make a video describing what software or library you used for Arduino and the parts you used? Best regards, Michael.
Is it possible to use the KEYESTUDIO Leonardo R3 ATMEGA32U4? Because it seems like the chip has the same name as the one you are using? Although nice done with this project! Keep it up, perhaps it could be cool to develop a Yoke version on this one, if is possible?
Hello, which region of the world and MSFS 2020 scenarios do you demonstrate your gadgets?? The presentation is very beautiful and I would like to fly there too!
Could you go thru more detail on how to wire the hall sensors, switches and buttons to the microcontroller? Which pins do the positive, negative, and signal leads soldered to which pins on the board? Where would be the .stls for joystick. I like your layout of the stick.
Would you be so kind and draw a schematic how to solder the buttons and hall sensors to the arduino? Absolute beginners who just want to rebuild your flightstick need something like this ;)
I'm thinking of making some kind of tiny PCBs to put instead of analog stick potentiometers and convert them to hall-effect potentiometers (to convert xbox, ps or nintendo gamepad) I'd put sensor(s) and some kind of tiny microcontroller on the PCB to make the conversion. I don't know, sounds like someone else would already do it if possible! :D
This is exactly what I've been looking for! However, I'm having zero luck finding the specified AH3503 hall sensors in the USA. Can someone point me to a different part number that will work?
Very cool video, I'm trying to replace my pots in my racing pedals by making my own hall sensors and I'm using your advice to make them. Do you think I would still need two neodymium magnets or could I use one? Thanks in advance!
There is a bill of materials on the thingiverse page. I’m sorry for the formatting, there’s nothing I can do. Main things you will need are a Arduino Micro, linear analog Hall effect ICs, small round magnets, PCB size microswitches, rubber elastics, rotary pots, and a ton of M3 nuts and bolts
@@AkakiKuumeri could you maybe reupload the whole thingiverse readme to pastebin? please :) also trying to build it && having a serious pain with that formatting
You can see the first version had a single moving magnet and a stationary sensor with two axes. It didn’t work, because you would need to have sensor in the middle of both axes of rotation for the reading to be linear. You would have to have a complicated gimbal-type hinge mechanism, with an open center. Instead I have two seperate sensors, where the sensors are right on the axis of rotation, but offset to the side. In this configuration at least one of the sensors has to move, and that’s exactly what I designed.
I am impressed. Thanks for good explanation. I am working on this type projects with esp32. I have question:) . Why did you use hall effect sensors rather than joystick modules? Its add complexity to your project(but it looks cool :)) and if you using pla, pla creeps under continuous stress (its happens to me but can't prove it :D im now using petg) Precision probably lower than potentiometers. Because you have to align correctly the magnets and all magnets don't have same magnetic flux.This is my thought i m not often use hall effects sensors, maybe i am wrong. And yes my grammar mistakes can hurt your eyes:D.
This is awesome! How long did it take you to design/make it? You sound like you know what you’re doing and make it seem so easy. I’ve been trying to design a human input device for myself, no product design experience, and it’s way more difficult than I thought it would be. Your design is inspiring, and makes me want to try other ideas I have!
This is really amazing. I will print this. I also wonder if there is a way to adapt this for games that require 3 and 4 axies ala Kerbal Space Program or other space sims.

The right type of Hall effect sensor for this application is a ratiometric linear hall effect sensor.

Awesome to hear! Have fun
Great Poject, thank you for sharing the information and the files! I' m building it right now. How did you choose this specific hall sensor?
Hall-effect sensor is called after Edwin Hall, not after the "corridor" between the magnets. But cool otherwise.

i like how ur casually talkin like ur mate is over
fast forward wtf are you doin with that cat!!!!!!!!!!!
I wonder if this could work with DCS, super interested to play dcs but don't have the mula to buy a joystick and all those equipment.
I am impressed. Thanks for good explanation. I am working on this type projects with esp32. I have question:) . Why did you use hall effect sensors rather than joystick modules? Its add complexity to your project(but it looks cool :)) and if you using pla, pla creeps under continuous stress (its happens to me but can't prove it :D im now using petg) Precision probably lower than potentiometers. Because you have to align correctly the magnets and all magnets don't have same magnetic flux.This is my thought i m not often use hall effects sensors, maybe i am wrong. And yes my grammar mistakes can hurt your eyes:D.
This is awesome! How long did it take you to design/make it? You sound like you know what you’re doing and make it seem so easy. I’ve been trying to design a human input device for myself, no product design experience, and it’s way more difficult than I thought it would be. Your design is inspiring, and makes me want to try other ideas I have!
This is really amazing. I will print this. I also wonder if there is a way to adapt this for games that require 3 and 4 axies ala Kerbal Space Program or other space sims.
