I recommend a joywarrior 24f16. Expensive but it works flawless

If you want to solder on your own it's not that expensive...

I use this one

Plugged in, calibrate and since a year never touched again....

 

This looks very interesting, is it easy to setup and where to put it in my cab?

I've been keeping my eye out for Microsoft Sidewinder USB game controller. Apparently the PCB out of one of those is pretty much plug & play.  They are cheap, but hard to find here. :(

Hey Knorr, I sent you a private message a while ago. Any chance your message box might be full?

Thanks for the replies. My accelerometer just isn't right. I will have to try one of those joy warriors.

On there website you can download the software for it. For calibration its only one knob... :). Before that you can also adjust the g level.

 

laylow, did you download the software Knorr mentioned? Maybe Knorr can share his VPX settings?
