! IMPORTANT !

Logitech saitek 90° mod is required for this mod (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4596632) 

 

I used SS495A hall effect sensor with a arduino pro micro (USB-C version)

The sensor is attached with a hotglue and it could be mooved a bit around the middle for fine manual calibration. 
Also be cearful when glueing the magnets in place! One side should be south and other north (so the sensor goes from 0 - 500 - 1023) 
D12 1mm neodymium magnets are used  

The case fits the arduino, one button and two LEDs and 2 4pin JST-XH 2,54mm connectors (one is for the yoke and other is for a tiller) 
I now have only the roll axis wired up, Ill post update when the pitch axis is done.

The arduino runs a simple code with the joystick.h lib, where it emulates joystick X axis with the mapped value.

The tiller is just a reserve for now.

Im open to any updates, this is very crude solution tbh, but for me it fixes the problem with the old pots.
