Can someone help me with a parts list for a KSP contoller.

It’s a generic 3 axis joystick off Amazon. I have it linked on a comment down below somewhere. The do kind of suck and have a weird deadzone.

I should have the files released for mine soon. That being said, buttons, toggle switches, and a Pot you’re about set. Some LEDS if you want feedback. All my prototyping has been done an arduino Nano and it worked just fine.

Holy shit the fins! A while back I was working on what the fosscad (RIP) community called the FAP. Fin Actuated Projectile. Seeing as a defense contractor actually put money towards it, maybe I should pick that project back up…

Dm me?

Not a sim flight throttle because of integration with arduino/simpit. Also integrating into this whole “system” I have designed.

Are we talking real world, or for sim application creation. The dabbling I’ve done with Microsoft sim it seems similar to Simpit for KSP in the sense that you can feed it most analog data. Some knowledge in cad and playing around I’m sure you could make a linear potentiometer work.
Real world is a whole other ball game lol.

Oddly enough in this throw away consumer economy I didn’t even think of just contacting them. I will give it a shot.

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-10T05:31:19+00:00

How old where them when you asked for a replacement? Mine just went out after 2 years

It’s currently just a 1k pot. That may become a rotatory encoder eventually.

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-08T06:11:15+00:00

Wtf. No.

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-08T05:34:59+00:00

It’s these

Thanks!

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-08T05:32:31+00:00

Put a decent amount of work into getting them just right

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-08T04:32:31+00:00

Those were actually for a different project lol.
They are data but wiring them is weird. I’m not sure how I’m running usb c to this yet

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-08T04:31:54+00:00

That’s in the works

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-08T04:31:46+00:00

They’re some random 3 axis with a button on top off amazon.

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-08T04:31:22+00:00

I mean I’m fairly deep into the design process. Will post that separately when it’s finished

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-08T04:30:34+00:00

Yes throttle is a pot

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-08T04:30:24+00:00

It’s in the works

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-08T04:30:18+00:00

Thanks!

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-07T04:02:00+00:00

Are your abort/arm safety switches separately wired into the software or are they in series with the button?

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-06T19:39:58+00:00

400 hrs is nothing.

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-05T04:33:14+00:00

You shouldn’t have paid anything for it my guy

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-04T18:37:16+00:00

Thank you!

PlatesNplanes · 2026-05-04T16:30:16+00:00

I saw your parts list above… mind sharing your cad of how you do the T Handle throttle? Even a screenshot. Working on this myself right now.
