how to build a FFB direct drive STEERING WHEEL from a HOVERBOARD | step by step

Check PCBway out to step your projects up with high-quality custom parts:

In this video, I'll show you how to build a direct drive force feedback steering wheel using a cheap hoverboard motor and a bunch of other inexpensive electronics. The price is between 100 and 200 euros and the results blow out of the water any other wheel available for even double that price. The direct drive motor offers high torque and detailed feedback with 15nm of peak torque and fast acceleration. The build is very easy and it's a perfect beginner project to start getting into sim racing without breaking the bank.

    Nice project, but I’d highly recommend adding an inline kill switch to anything delivering this level of torque, just to keep your hands safe from the wheel spinning when you crash or get shunted of track

    ​@@algodude8713Hall sensors give the motor controller quite precise position of the rotor. A typical hoverboard motor has 15 pairs of magnets, and with proper processing it is 5400 position per rotation, if I am not mistaken. It is far better than this sensor, which has a resolution around 1 degree (and it has 4 hall sensors inside anyway, but "senses" only 1 magnet at the shaft). I guess, the main reason is that this sensor reads the absolute angular position by itself. This drastically simplifies the code, of course.

    From looking at the step file the bearing is a 19mm OD, 10mm ID. So it should be a 6800 variant. For the magnet it should be around 6x2,5mm but if I'm not wrong it should be included with the encoder.
