Title: Need an Oscars Controls Mouse Board for my spinner
Post by: Justin on April 02, 2026, 12:06:52 am

Hi all.  Im hoping someone has an older leftover (not in use) Oscar Controls USB Mouse board to connect my Oscar Controls spinner to.   By board went bad.   Cant find these anymore.

I only have one and 3 devices that use it.  But I'm currently in a project of converting a bunch of my old control panels to be wireless using an arduino esp32-c3 (and s3).  I'm trying to get my spinner to use this (just finished with my starwars controller and it works great).  If I get this working (need some 10k ohm resistors since then esp32 inputs expect 3.3v vs 5v).  I might have an extra one after that.  Or better yet, I may have the code that you could just use a $4 board turn your trackball into a bluetooth mouse.

Hey thanks.  I actually found that my ipac2 board also can drive the spinner.  Works perfectly.
