## New Hardware version available version 2.0
JR4 has created a new hardware for this project (many thanks) and the new parts are available [here](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6464701)
The hardware is nearly the same as shown in 1.3.5 but a little different. I will update the description soon.

### This project is still in development and will be extend constantly.

It shows how to create a force feedback yoke (and later pedals) for using with Flight Simulator.
It consist of 3d components, electronic schematics and arduino source code.

See [Wiki](https://github.com/gagagu/Arduino_FFB_Yoke/wiki) for more info.

## Important Info
If you want to use more than one Arduino Joysticks you have to change the Joystick.h file JOYSTICK_DEFAULT_REPORT_ID number to different number
Example:

#### #define JOYSTICK_DEFAULT_REPORT_ID         0x04

Also you can define the USB Name of the Joystick by changing the boards.txt file normally found in
#### C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\arduino\avr\boards.txt
#### or
#### C:\Users\your username\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\arduino\hardware\avr\1.8.5\boards.txt

#### find:
micro.build.vid=0x2341

micro.build.pid=0x8037

micro.build.usb_product="Arduino Micro"

#### and change it to (use at your own risk), you can comment out the old value by using a Rhombus symbol
micro.build.vid=0x9998

micro.build.pid=0x9998

micro.build.usb_product="Arduino FFB Yoke"

## Calibration
The newest Version of the code uses a calibration routine for measure the Potentiometer Values on all directions. I will be started by pressing the calibration button. Everything you need to know will be displayed on the LCD Screen.

## Ref
This project is a combination of several existing github projects and 3d Models from Thingiverse.com
