Traveling with a laptop and playing simulators is not a good mix and while I missed my HOTAS setup back home I thought of building a mini HOTAS I could easily take with me and not take up too much room yet still be easy to use. Connects with USB to computer and uses standard drivers, no extra drivers necessary.
So I gutted an old RC transmitter and combined its gimbals with trim pots, some switches and toggles. Very easy to use and install.
Using an Arduino Pro Micro as well as a matrix board I designed: https://www.etsy.com/se-en/listing/946472510/arduino-matrix-breakout-board-36
I 've done other controllers (for example a 6 DOF variant): https://www.etsy.com/se-en/listing/936720888/hotas-simulatorgame-controller
Both are less if you contact me directly on Printables. ;)
If you like my designs please consider donating a coffee or any amount really, I appreciate the gesture.
