I am trying to rig up the original daytona pots to a U-HID nano and want to make sure I am doing this right.  I google potentiometer and tried to best to figure out what each out is.  Is my drawing correct with the 5v being #3, the analog being #2, and ground being #1?  If so would my drawing be correct in assigning each function as is?  On the Daytona steering wheel, is the top pot to turn left and the bottom pot to turn right?  I know someone on here has mame'd a daytona cab.  Thank you in advanced.

Most of the people on here with 270 degree wheel driving cabs have hacked PC steering wheels as an interface.

I've never used a U-HID nano.
Pots look right, but may or may not be backwards.
If the controls are reversed, just reverse the two outside connections on the pot.
It doesn't take long to do a quick test to see which way is correct.

For the steering, you should only need to hook up the upper pot.
The lower one is for the force feedback drive board.

Looks good to me, now you just have to use the config util and assign those pins to 5v and your 3 analog axis and use the pre-configured ground
