<B>This is a work in progress I still did not assemble the whole thing.</B> A Youtube video will follow doing the assembly and testing (I will also update here). I made a remix to have some features for myself, like: <ul> <li>No support is needed</li> <li>Different placements for the magnets and sensors (Linear movements)</li> <li>Brakes are non linear for better control</li> <li>Software debounce for the digital switches</li> <li>Bigger magnets</li> <li>The sensor model is more sensitive for maximum resolution</li> <li>Cable management</li> <li>Trap nuts and screws to secure the parts on the shafts</li> <li>Stronger solution for the centering string (still in testing bunch of holes already included)</li> <li>All the printed parts are included</li> <li>Word document for the assembly</li> <li>Build material list with links</li> </ul> <B>Arduino program, this version is untested, I added software debounce from a previous project and I do not have a Pro Micro to test it where I'm at right now.</B> Add this Library to Arduino:<br>https://github.com/MHeironimus/ArduinoJoystickLibrary/archive/refs/heads/master.zip And I use Sparkfun Pro Micro to program my boards, add to the Arduino Preferences Additional URL:<br>https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sparkfun/Arduino_Boards/master/IDE_Board_Manager/package_sparkfun_index.json <B>For the Arduino Pro Micro analog connections are:</B> <ul> <li>JoystickX = A0</li> <li>JoystickY = A1</li> <li>BrakeR = A2</li> <li>BrakeL = A3</li> <li>Throttle1 = A8</li> <li>Throttle2 = A9</li> <li>Rudder = A10</li> </ul> Digital switch connections are 2-7, 14, 15 and 16. At this stage the program will output all analog values to the serial port so we can use the serial plotter (115200 bauds) and see the behaviour, disable this with debug = 0 in the setup.
