What I did was +ADw-br+AD4- to go to Radio Shack and buy a 3x5 project box and 2 250Kohm +ADw-br+AD4- potentiometers. Next I put one pot in the box and then rpalced the +ADw-br+AD4- orignal pot in the wah pedal with the 250K. I then opened the joysick +ADw-br+AD4- and took the wires from the varible resistors and hooked the +ADw-br+AD4- corresponding X and Y axis to the steering wheel and pedal. Oh BTW, I +ADw-br+AD4- also cut a Batman style steering wheel out of aluminiunm. I also +ADw-br+AD4- screwed the project box to a piece of aluminium about the size of a +ADw-br+AD4- piece of paper so I could place it under the keyboard for stabilitiy. +ADw-br+AD4- I haven't had any problems with it and it works just as well as the +ADw-br+AD4- commercial product my bud spent +ACQ-160 for. The only real pain in the +ADw-br+AD4- ass is you have to center both the pedal and wheel for when you want +ADw-br+AD4- to do stuff like select tracks, playback, etc.......... +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4- +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4AJg-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- Good Luck +ADw-br+AD4APA-/div+AD4- +ADw-/div+AD4- +ADw-/div+AD4- +ADw-/div+AD4- +ADw-/div+AD4- +ADw-div id+AD0AIg-p3+ACI- class+AD0AIg-post has-profile bg2+ACIAPg- +ADw-div class+AD0AIg-inner+ACIAPg- +ADw-dl class+AD0AIg-postprofile+ACI- id+AD0AIg-profile3+ACIAPg- +ADw-dt class+AD0AIg-has-profile-rank no-avatar+ACIAPg- +ADw-div class+AD0AIg-avatar-container+ACIAPgA8-/div+AD4-vore+ADw-/dt+AD4- +ADw-/dl+AD4- +ADw-div class+AD0AIg-postbody+ACIAPg- +ADw-div id+AD0AIg-post+AF8-content3+ACIAPg- +ADw-h3 class+AD0AIg-first+ACIAPgA8-a href+AD0AIgAj-p3+ACIAPg-Homebrew Controllers+ADw-/a+AD4APA-/h3+AD4- +ADw-p class+AD0AIg-author+ACIAPg- +ADw-span class+AD0AIg-responsive-hide+ACIAPg-by +ADw-strong+AD4-vore+ADw-/strong+AD4- +ACY-raquo+ADs- +ADw-/span+AD4-Thu, 28 Dec 1995 04:00:00+ADw-/p+AD4- +ADw-div class+AD0AIg-content+ACIAPg- +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4- I'm planning on building something soon, i'll have self centering +ADw-br+AD4- steering and nutralizing gas/brake pedals (without touching anything +ADw-br+AD4- it will all be centered) i'll post a schematic when i draw it... +ADw-br+AD4- it will be built with joystick parts... +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4- +ADw-br+AD4APA-/div+AD4- +ADw-/div+AD4- +ADw-/div+AD4- +ADw-/div+AD4- +ADw-/div+AD4- +ADw-div id+AD0AIg-p4+ACI- class+AD0AIg-post has-profile bg1+ACIAPg- +ADw-div class+AD0AIg-inner+ACIAPg- +ADw-dl class+AD0AIg-postprofile+ACI- id+AD0AIg-profile4+ACIAPg- +ADw-dt class+AD0AIg-has-profile-rank no-avatar+ACIAPg- +ADw-div class+AD0AIg-avatar-container+ACIAPgA8-/div+AD4-GHetric+ADw-/dt+AD4- +ADw-/dl+AD4- +ADw-div class+AD0AIg-postbody+ACIAPg- +ADw-div id+AD0AIg-post+AF8-content4+ACIAPg- +ADw-h3 class+AD0AIg-first+ACIAPgA8-a href+AD0AIgAj-p4+ACIAPg-Homebrew Controllers+ADw-/a+AD4APA-/h3+AD4- +ADw-p class+AD0AIg-author+ACIAPg- +ADw-span class+AD0AIg-responsive-hide+ACIAPg-by +ADw-strong+AD4-GHetric+ADw-/strong+AD4- +ACY-raquo+ADs- +ADw-/span+AD4-Sat, 30 Dec 1995 04:00:00+ADw-/p+AD4- +ADw-div class+AD0AIg-content+ACIAPgA8-p+AD4APA-div class+AD0AIg-gQuote+ACIAPg- +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs-This is how I constructed mine.
