3D model description

Made this a while ago for myself.

I wanted it to look like the Porsche GT3 buttonbox and a bit like the one from Fanatec with a screen. It had to fit a d-shape wheel from OMP or Motamec or a cheap aliexpress wheel.

So i made one that would fit a 0,96" oled screen.

For this build you need 2 arduino's because the oled needs a lot of frame buffers.
Also use a Nano for it. For the buttons you could use a Pro Micro.
On how to use the screen look at here:
https://github.com/SHWotever/SimHub/wiki/Arduino-SSD1306-0.96%27%27-Oled-I2C#restrictions

To use 2 arduino with only one usb. Use one of these hubs:

Materials:
12mm push buttons
2 rotary encoders or 2 knitter switches
0.96" oled screen
Arduino Nano
Arduino Pro Micro
M5 - 12mm (countersunk)
M5 - 40mm (countersunk)
m2 - 8mm
