DTM Steering Wheel Powered By Xbox 360 Controller

##What is this project?


This project was started after I had freshly built myself a FFBeast wheelbase.
And whilst it was amazing and worked great, I didn't have any way of shifting in games.
So I set out to create the best steering wheel for my needs and requirements.
- Cheap
- Wireless
- Durable
- Good looking
- Compatibility with my games

After some thinking and joking around the concept of using an Xbox controller came up.
Some considering later it seemed like a genuinely great idea.
It's a tested technology, all games support it's input and they are used as button boxes all the time!
So I set out to find something to build my project upon, this is where I found this project by the user bremme over on Thingiverse which looked great.

I have made quite a few modifications to make this all work, such as the analog hand clutch, modified front panel, Xbox 360 controller PCB mounts and housing as well as adding some creature comforts and strength improvements.

I hope you enjoy this
