Happ 360° Steering Wheel
u_rebelscum:
If it works with optipac, it should work with a mouse hack, as long as the mouse is "hackable". Some mice don't have good solder points to hack to. Some mice are too slow for high speeds (eg golf and bowling) Others coughmostlogitechcough have a bad record of people here failing to hack. I stopped trying to hack mice years ago, and use premade encoder boards now.
But if you still want to hack a mouse, go for it. There's lots of information on hacking mice here and elsewhere on the web. You can use the info from hacking spinners or trackballs; the only question you will have is on your wheel, which wire is power, which is ground, and which two carry the quadrature signal. It should be labeled, or maybe Andy includes the info with the wheel.

Thanks for the infos.
I already hacked a mouse for my trackball and have no problem at all.
Pitou!
