Custom DIY Usb Transmitter -
06.04.2009, 07:48 AM
Hello All, After breaking my faux Vrc adapter I decided to make my own usb transmitter... I have this old Logitech Attach 3d Pro.. had all the bells and whistles until the twist potentiometer decided to crap out on me... 50 bucks down the drain- Or so i thought.
Just recently i began playing Duratrax Real race G2 which is a pretty neat simulator- one of those games where the graphics suck so hard that you just HAVE to play them more- the physics are also quite real- based off the Great planes physics engine. So anyways- when I downloaded (and by downloaded i mean bought it ;) ) I needed a usb controller- i dug though all my junk and found the old logitech with the entire twist mechanism and upper portion missing.. worked great but its kind of hard to drive an Rc Car with a joy stick. So then I had the idea to just take a standard Rc transmitter and use the potentiometers of the trigger and wheel- and run them through the board of the joystick.. It should work since they are just potentiometer inputs to the control board... should have- this working by tonite....
Im at school would anyone be so kind as to go onto my photobucket and post the pics up? Its Asdf1010
