Hi!
Im currently looking into the idea of building myself a buttonbox, but im afraid im rather hopeless when it comes to building stuff. Ive read a couple of tutorials and looked at some topics around on the forums, but I could use some help with finding shops to buy from ( I live in norway so it has to be shipped over seas most probably )
Ive made a schematic in paint so I can show what im after
I have already a Universal Joystick Controller BU0836X so im hoping everything (except the symproject stuff) will go on that board.
First off, the buttons; The knitter buttons from leo bodnars site works just for for that I guess? But the small buttons im after, where can I find those ?
Secondly, switches; does anyone got some good tips on where to find those ? and the safety switch is it possible to use that as a starter for the car ? the best thing would be to get a switch that dont flip up but has to be hold up by force (like turning the ignition)
Third and last, the rotary encoders; The leo bodnar ones work just fine for my cause right? I was thinking of getting one with a rotary and push function (to adjust and reset FOV) But do I need to buy some button "caps" or what its called for these ? or does it come with that ?
Regarding the Sym Projects stuff, Is it possible to link them together ? or do I have to use 3 USB cables on this box ?
Im just asking for help with the shopping in the beginning, im sure ill need help with putting it all together later on.
Well I hope someone is willing to help a noob out.
