Wiring Arcade Steering Wheel
(1/1)
jerschwab:
I finally bought a steering wheel for my cab. I went with a 360 degree with a wheel encoder.
Does anyone know where this wheel comes from? I bought it from a pinball shop in Vancouver, they didn't seem to know.
Anyhow, is this the type of board I could just wire up like my spinner? I have an Oscar controls vortex spinner that came with a PCB and wires to USB. Can I get a USB cable and solder it to this board, or do I need a PCB from a mouse?
I'll be installing this on an Ultimate Arcade II cabinet as a switchable control panel. Perhaps I can share the PCB from the spinner with this???
I had trouble finding posts of people using an arcade wheel, most seem to be using the Logitech, or Thrustmaster, etc.
Thanks a lot!

That should be fairly easy to interface. You will need to use either an optipac, an optiwiz , or a mouse hack to interface. The pcb on the wheel shows you which wires are which, just match those up with the corresponding connections on the optiwiz or optipac.
