SIM RACING PEDAL WITH UNO?

Projects General Guidance
1

Hello guys, I'm completely new with this kind of stuff and just recently know about arduino in general. Yesterday I came across this build video on YouTube Sim Racing Pedal Based on PIC Microcontroller My question is :

  1. Can I do the same thing with arduino uno?
  2. Does Arduino uno support at least 3-Axis?
  3. How to connect hall effect sensor in arduino? The guy in the video seems to simply connect it from the hall effect to axis slot(?) with a cable but based on what I saw on the youtube lots of people using breadboard with jumper (arduino)
  4. Can I connect the same load cell (50KG load cell) with hx711 load amplifier?
  5. I know this sounds silly but does it require a code for the arduino to run as a joystick? Can I just use MMJOY2 or other program like that?

Sorry if my english is confusing :slight_smile:

  1. Can I do the same thing with arduino uno?

Yes.

  1. Does Arduino uno support at least 3-Axis?

3 axis what?

  1. How to connect hall effect sensor in arduino?

It's usually an analog device. Connect it to an analog pin.

  1. Can I connect the same load cell (50KG load cell) with hx711 load amplifier?

Yes.

  1. I know this sounds silly but does it require a code for the arduino to run as a joystick?

For the Arduino to do anything, code is required. What does "run as a joystick" mean?

Can I just use MMJOY2 or other program like that?

For what? Cleaning the dinner dishes?

Look at this, it may be your anwser GitHub - NicoHood/HID: Bring enhanced HID functions to your Arduino!

PaulS:
3 axis what?

As you can see in the video, the board support 5-Axis and 24 Buttons, does Arduino uno support it too?

For the Arduino to do anything, code is required. What does "run as a joystick" mean?

I mean the computer and the games will detect it as a gamepad

For what? Cleaning the dinner dishes?

Flashing firmware and do the settings in MMJOY2, is it not possible?
