This project is an open hardware Load Cell pedals for sim racing.

Presentation

Introduction

Make / order the PCB (or circuit on a breadboard), flash the firwmare, and connect the USB cable to the PC : you have a new pedals Set :-D

Build tutorial are available here : Instructables

Main feature

  • Standalone : not required software on PC, pedals are seen like a Joystick, just setup the game ;)
  • In the main.h, you can choose which pedal you want, you can have 1,2 or 3 pedals.
  • 3 LoadCell with 16b accuracy
  • High sampling/second : 80-1 Pedal / 40-2 Pedals / 27-3 Pedals
  • Automatic start calibration
  • Settings for Throttle / Brake / Clutch range and start DeadZone stored in permanently memory
  • Oled screen to check range (click on +/- button) and setup parameters
  • use the light keyboard and Oled Screen to setup parameters

Hardware

Pedals

OpenSimPedals pedals will be share on thingiverse. They are designed to be print with this specification :

  • Throttle : loadCell, 40kg push on pedal
  • Brake : loadCell, 100kg push on pedal
  • Clutch : loadCell, 20kg push on pedal The BOM, will be shared on thingiverse

Electronic

The support board.

  • The "Electronic" directory contain : the schematic, the gerber (to order board on web site)
  • CPU : Arduino Micro Pro (5V-16Mhz)
  • OLED : SSD1306 Oled 0.96 I2C screen
  • ADC : 3*ADS1232
  • Connector (KF301-4P) and button (6mm/6mm push button)

The firmware

  • Clone this repository in VisualStudioCode
  • Platformio plugin allow you to build and upload on the arduino micro
