easysteer - DIY sim racing steering wheel
easysteer is a fully 3D printable DIY sim racing steering wheel that you can make at home without special tools, skill or knowledge. No screws, nuts, springs, sliders, shafts or bearings needed.
900 degrees, lock to lock: two and a half turns, like a real car. The horn is in the middle of the hub, where it belongs. The column tilts through four settings: upright for a truck, low and flat for a GT car, and two in between. The clamp that holds it to the desk comes with it.
Features:
- 900° steering rotation
- 300 mm wheel diameter
- Paddle shifters
- Horn button in the middle of the hub
- Column tilts through 4 positions
- Desk clamp included
- No force feedback
What you get:
- 3D models for 3D printing
- Pro Micro firmware
- Free updates for life
What you need:
Parts:
- ≈ 1024 g of 3D printing filament
- 1x Pro Micro (ATmega32U4, USB Type-C)
- 1x WH148 10k linear potentiometer
- 2x KW11-3Z-B switch
- ≥ 24 AWG wire
Tools:
- 3D printer with at least a 200 × 200 mm build plate
- Soldering iron
- Super glue
- Arduino IDE (free)
Compatibility:
It shows up as a standard USB game controller, no drivers needed, so any game that lets you map a controller will see it. That covers most racing games. A game that only accepts one particular brand of wheel is the exception. You can use it on its own or next to other easyrace devices or gear from other brands, in any game that supports more than one controller.
