DIY Wheel with Simhub & Nextion Display

[dontpanic]

Hejhej,

I was planning my projekt for my new Racing Wheel and I stumbled over the following sentence on SimHub Wiki:

"Arduino Pro Micro : The arduino will emulate a TTL and allow RGB LEDs or buttons to be added"

Now, I plan to add rgb leds AND buttons and I am wondering, if every free pin is free to use.
Will this wiring plan I have in mind work out?

Thanks everyone for your help!

So Im building a wheel with a Vocore display. At the moment, I am using a joystick controller for the buttons, and a second USB cable for the display. I'm wanting to go wireless. Can one board handle both the switches and then the display as well?

hi guys i tried to upload that sketch but give me an error Adafruit_NeoPixel.h No such file or directory.What is this about?

You need to add the Adafruit Neo Pixel library. With the IDE open, go to SKETCH---INCLUDE LIBRARY---MANAGE LIBRARY . Then copy paste that library they list you need. Then add that library via the path I mentioned. it'll add to the sketch.

I made one with a screen - used a vocore and an LED strip.
Fun project, but I never got round to finishing it. It needs the handles to be wrapped in alcantara or something, and the front re-printed without the printing pattern.

Everything works, encoders, pushes, switches etc.

Hey friend do u have a tutorial for that?

Simhub does the heavy lifting. Just plug in your arduino and it can make a sketch to suit your needs for you, and push it to the board. Great software.
