Wanted Button box

[Des Pearce]

I'm looking for a simple button box to be able to put all of the VR adjustments on for each sim. Needs a 1.5m cable and could be as simple as 1 large button and 4 smaller ones

I've made one recently but bought enough to make two. Would you be interested?

 

[Des Pearce]

I am but it depends on price

 

[Damien55]

It's the same as this one:

I'd say £70.

Sorry to sound nieve. What does this require from the software side? I'm used to having buttons and functions on my wheel but I do have a wheel for rally with no buttons etc that I need some for(as it were)

If you watch the video I posted you'll see that it utilizes the Arduino Joystick Library. So you can pretty much buy the components and make one yourself and enjoy 24 buttons plus 4 encoders. If you know how to program you can make some changes to the code and make any kind of button box really. Make sure you get the right type of encoder otherwise you'll have to change the code so it counts the detents correctly.

It looks great for £70 but more than I wanted to spend and 3 or 4 times the functions I need. I'll have a think and thanks for the offer

Thanks for the offer but I've found one nearer my budget with enough functions to make it easy enough to use in VR

No problem. What did you get in the end?

 

[Des Pearce]

One from ebay, 9 function and he made a couple of layout changes, thought it would be a week but he got it sorted and posted today.

The silver button will be recentre vr, the 4 above will be seat movement and not sure about the rest.
