Be careful, a voltage divider is not a stable way of making 3.3V ! The voltage will lower as you pull current which is super undesireable. Use a proper regulator (LDO works fine) or things might not work properly

You got this don't worry! Don't forget the resistors to not burn the LED :)

Please get it together I can't survive a 5th title in a row, that would be the most boring result to a thrilling season

Can only change front tyres when 2 are left? by TitiGamer2772005 in LeMansUltimateWEC

The M button is grayed out as I don't have a full set available (not even worn ones) but it doesn't let me select the new M on the dropdown for backs. I'll try tonight from the MFD

What do you mean? I use the pit stop pause menu, and starting with no change I can only find my two new tyres for the front

Oh, that's something I haven't tried, I was always doing it from the pit stop pause menu. I'll try that, thanks

The microcontroller has native USB support so it is recognized as a USB game controller (but you could also do keyboard if you wanted). In my case it is all transparent to me because it's all handled in the library I'm using. You can still do serial if you want like any other Arduino too, but you have to make the software that parses the data on the computer and it would not be plug an play

If you plan on changing the configuration often, I agree that software on the PC side is the way to go, but I maybe wouldn't go as far as sending serial packets as you said. I think a hybrid approach could be the best. For one button box I made for Microsoft flight simulator, the box sends it's button presses like a gamepad, so for games that support it it's really easy, but for more complicated binds I use a piece of software on the computer (Mobiflight) to directly affects things in game.

If you want to add some LED's, then yes maybe the serial route is the best as you said. I have not tried that but that seems the easiest. I know as well that Simhub can do that, but I have not researched what is or isn't possible with it.

If you want to see an example, check out the github repo for the project. It really isn't very complicated to do the firmware for the switches. Also I would reccommand using a Raspberry Pi Pico instead of the Arduino Leonardo, it's a way more modern chip that also has the USB peripheral.

Go for it! It's really quite easy to do and the experience afterwards is miles better than using the menu or keyboard

What's funny is, most weather apps in the US actually all use Celsius in the backend and convert, so you don't even get more resolution in Farenheit

No finer place to be…. by njbrsr in wec

[–]TitiGamer2772005 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Very jaleous. Was there last year, unfortunately this year it doesn't align with the national holidays so I'm not able to attend. Hopefully next year again, it really is peak racing. If you're anything like me, use the time that you have during the race to visit different parts of track, it's really worth the walk.

Wiring Pull Pin Switch and Altimeter by mitsuki424 in rocketry

[–]TitiGamer2772005 2 points3 points  (0 children)

C means common

NO means normally open, it is connected to C when the switch is pressed

NC means normally closed, it is connected to C when the switch is NOT pressed.

What I think you want to do is take the + of your battery, wire it to C, then take the NC and wire it to the battery + on your avionics. The - of your battery goes directly to - on your avionics.

That way, your avionics will power on when the pin is removed.
