These are my DIY pedals for simracing.
If you have any further questions, just put them down below in the comments, i'll try to answer as many as i can.
Hope you enjoy this one!

Great job!!! You made better pedals than fanatec on your home, thats incredible

Im working on some myself right now. your design is genius. it can be made from alot of different materials and its pretty cheap. Also everything is adjustable and can be made into my own likings. Thank you for posting this!

i wanted to get a new wheel, mostly because im missing the clutch and the pedals are TOO noisy, but now i see that it's not too complicated to make some, i might use a couple of things from your design and will totally shout you out if i ever publish them. great video and thanks for your contribution to the sim racing community

I'm just getting into sim racing too and would love to build a set of pedals. And have some great ideas - How did you set-up last - did you change anything and any advice you would give.. Also where a good place to get a load cell from and what software did you use to monitor pedals.. Many thanks !!

Search around for potentiometer setup ("amstudio" channel has analog handbrake video that has wiring and programming video in detail with potentiometer, just that he uses another type). The legs on the side of each pedal (in gray) rotate the potentiometer, that's how he gets the data needed to have a controller
