This rig keeps getting better and better, hell know what you'll do next!
Thank you for these great Videos! Keep up the great work! I'm building my own setup and these how to videos are such agreat inspiration on what to do next! definitely going to build one of these!
THANK you very much recieved all the products and works like a charm did also bought the 3d file from you and got it 3d printed love it
Enjoy!
what can you not make?
awesome!
Many thanks for your awesome videos! Although i do not have any experience with electronics, soldering or programming an Arduino, i successfully built up the gear indicator and the LED Rev-indicator. Works perfect! Looking forward to try other projects of your channel. Greetings from Bavaria/Germany and sorry for my bad english...
Sim Hub is a godsend. So easy to do all kind of cool projects super easy. As always, thanks for sharing man!
I followed the tutorial and everything is working perfectly, thankyou!
Best DIY man i love your Video, greetings from Germany
your videos, specially the diy's are awesome!!
I just built this and I'm telling you it works great and your instructions was very clear and easy to follow. I love this thing. I can't wait to get home and install it on my home setup. Next I'm gonna try the button box. Only problem is I use it for american truck and when I get 9th gear it doesn't go any higher. Is there a different matrix that I can use to get double digit numbers?
such excellent videos. thank you. can a nano run both the gear led as well as the rev light bar?
Sweet little box :D
you should do a video explaining how to combine these with buttons boxes or with other displays!
Is it possible to combine the gear indicator and the RGB rev lights on one arduino nano?
I'll try it soon. TBH it should be possible if you add one more 5V source (from button box board interface)
@@RossoSimRacing so did it work ?
@@xXxXENcoreXxXx damn still have no Time to do that... I'll try to find some time
@@xXxXENcoreXxXx yes it does work.
@@Tim_2060 is there a guide to follow to make it work with one arduino?
Love ur vids keep em up👍
Thanks Tom!
Hey man, your videos are top notch. Short, easy to follow and hella informative. Just started building the sim dash, the sequential gear and button box. Just a small question, if you ( or somebody) can anwser, I would be gratefull. Can´t we use the same Nano without messing with code/sketch to build the sim dash and this gear indicator all in one package instead of using one Nano for each? Thanks man, love your work!
that gt four looks awesome in game too :D
As always great video. Thank you so much for this
I am using a flag display working also with arduino nano, the data line is connected to the D4 on the arduino. Can I use the same arduino nano to operate a gear display simply by starting with connector 5 up to 7??? Or do I have to use a new arduino nano with each hardware-plugin...
Love your sim stuff keep up good work
Thanks!
@@amstudioprojects i have a question. in the rev light video it shows you are using d4 for input and here you are using d4 too. so can i just change the pin to other pin if i were using only 1 board for both ?
Hi, how do you view the double numbers for the gear of ets2? With simhub.. Thank You
2:58 how did you add the revving
Muy bueno amigo !!! Lo voy a construir !!
hey amstudio..another great vid...i wanted to ask you..whats your opinion on live for speed game?
I think with every addons you are presenting you should do a tutorial on how to make your own usb Hub ahah
Awesome video, thanks for the idea! :D
Awesome,does it need to be plugged in any way to the car,besides power i mean,thanks looks smooth as silk
is it possible to use arduino nano with WS2812 and MAX7219 at the same time?
another awesome tutorial man.
Thanks mate!
Wowww man that is awesome
Good Work !!!!!!!!!!!! I Like It !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a cool project! it works perfectly fine for mine. I wanted to change the font but is it possible to change the font in free version?
Hi, how you made rpm indicator around gear number? In one point of your video gear number was smaler and rpm around it. I try to do same with 8x8 rgb matrix. Nice video thank you
OMG it works with Race 07 I need to make this cause my pc isnt powerful enough to play assetto corsa!!!! Thanks
Good job
That soo awesome!
Hi, I was wondering, can I use a 2.8" Nextion HMI TFT LCD Display Module For Raspberry Pi 2 A+ B+ & Arduino Kits instead the one you recomended? Thanks and congrats for amazing work you do.
T'est vidéo sont trop bien .Sa me donne de bonne idée pour faire mes petit projet.
Another good video. I have made one now, it is possible to rotate it 90 degrees. When i do it in simhub, nothings happens. Thanks
can someone tell me if i can use the rpm rgb marker plus the gear indicator on the same arudino pro micro or nano ????
Hey my Arduino uploading keeps failing what should i do
Does this work with assetto corsa competizione?
Pls. Led speedometer (led circle or strip)
Just sell this awesome stuff already!
What if you have Rev light and gear shift indicator in one micro? and the Gear shift is separate enclosure
Great Job. One question about M3 Bolts, which screw lenght (5mm,6,8,10)?
Hi, first I would like to thank you for the 32 function button box video. I was able to make my own, something I would have never thought of... everything is very well explained... thank you very much!!!
One question, to make this Gear indicator, can the Arduino Pro Micro be used? the same one you use in the button box? or does it have to be the Nano V3?
Thanks again!
very nice. can it be done with a display with more dots?
Two Questions:
1. did you say this can be entirely connected without soldering by using the pins on the dot matrix and using the supplied pins with the Arduino?
2.Do you like this the look of this display over the nextion one?
I'm from mark Armstrong streams
Would work for ATS and ETS2?
you need ardurino or aracaze is also ok
Amstudio please help!! I have done exactly the same thing as you . The leds power on , all of them. I get in game they still all on, i shift to one . You can see something is happening because it first goes black then red again. But the wholr screen is red! I dont get 1 2 3 4 5 etc
Me too
@@nicolaperer1687 did you get a solution?
@@teimonkauppa1002 no, I'm sorry
Can I used this as a flag indicator as well?
Hello everyone!! I don't know if anyone can help me. I have installed a ws2812b matrix and it works but the LEDs are disordered. I have tried the serpentine setting and it still doesn't show anything ordered. I don't know what else to do, I've searched and can't find anything that works for me.
Nice video
LIKE before VIEW! like always GREAT Video :D
How is it taking input from vehicle?
do you have to have sim hub running in the background on pc for this to work?
can you make g25 shifter for g29 racing wheel?
Very good :D :D
Whitch car is this?
I love this Turbo Sound!
Toyota Celica Rally car
Hi great video BUT..... What if we don't want to a £130 3d printer. Can we get casings etc anywhere else ?
Thanks
Can you do this with a pro micro
ETS 2 only display till 9th gear. Any solution? thanks
Is the h-shifter still holding up or has it started to show wear and tear?
Hallo bei meiner ganganzeige sind die Zahlen auf den Kopf gestellt und kann es nicht ändern kannst du mir weiterhelfen. Habe schon Portrait 180 Grad probiert usw funktioniert leider nicht
LG Jakob
*Amstudio* it's able to connect few different things to one arduino or I must bought few and add separately?
Yes a few items
Love it, also, where do you get the labels for your button box just below it? Built one of my own, but lack the labels.
I use an office label maker to make them
The files in racedepartment dont exist....
Yes :/
Hello. Love Your videos mate! I've got a problem with this one. I've ordered the parts You recommended and build as in Your tutorial, but I can not get it to work with Project Cars 2. The SimHub shows that the game is connected, but all of the leds in the matrix just keep staying on and nothing else happens. Any ideas?
I also have this issue, same in every game I try. LEDS stay powered on and don't change, the lights on the Arduino (RX/TX) flicker when at high RPM but the matrix doesnt change
Did you find solution?
@@rtfelix2288 Same here, did you find a solution?
can you use it for all games like dirt3?
if you did a handbrake it would be great and it would be very helpful

Hi is it possible to Use this with ETS2 and ATS as in 1L 6H or will it only show 1 6. Or can it Display 1L
sick
Can we use it with gaming consoles like Xbox one
I'm still having issues with the button matrix on the 32 function box....can you give me a hand?
will this work on xbox one
Please tell can we use it with consoles or not?
It works on xbox one? 🇧🇷

I can’t find anywhere how to get rgb lights to flash yellow in cautions or pit limiter.
Can i use arduino uno?
Can i use Arduino Nano instead?
good
the diy stuff is it compatible with need for speed
how many usb ports do you have on your pc
Where do you get th e small box from??? I have looked in our electronic store but they just offer me the LED Matrix... Unfortunately I don`t have a 3D Printer
I designed and printed the box. You can use a local 3d print service
HI, y want buy the desing for print in 3d ptinter of the box, do you sell it? Y look in pin website but i didnt find
Does this go to 18 speed?
I kept the stems on the display screen and soldered the stems to the board as I plan to install it onto a tach can. I cannot get it to work, unplugging it lights up the display for a instant then goes off. Any idea as to what can I check.
I got it to work, I had to change a setting on the game (automobilista 2).
Hello AMS, which colour is your perspex?, It's blue fluorescent? Thanks
Smoke Grey tint, but looks more blue
amstudio ok, thanks the one I ordered last week.. thank you master ;)
It works on Dirt Rally or Dirt 4??
how do i stop it from blinking when i need to shift
xbox one
Is it usable??
I want to do this project so bad, but there is something thats stands in my way. This soldering iron is too expensive for me. Ive seen some go for as cheap as 5 euros. Are they trustworthy?
Ive updated the description with a cheaper soldering iron also.
amstudio thanks a lot, love your content.
Can i use this for a real car?? I need for my classic car with automatic transmisión
If I wanted to combine a TM1638 with this dot matrix could I just use one arduino since they use different data pins?
TNT321BOOM you can do it ;) simhub supports it
Hey wotever, great job on the Simhub :-) i´m using and it really is a great piece of software for the end user. Small related question, can we connect the tm1638 + MAX7219 dot matrix + 2 MAX7219 7 segment to only 1 Nano v3? You think the Nano 5v output will be enough? Thanks man.
hi can you help me. when i turn on my simhub my game is lagging even my wheel software is lagging, whats the problem? sorry for my english
could you share a model for a 3d printer?
