    Hello,

    It's not my first post here, I already have a 2dof system for about 2 years and I'm very happy playing on it.

    Now, I want to present, how i like to call it, my 3D printed Direct Drive FFB Wheel. It's printed in PLA, 1 bearing used, 3 x M12 bolts, 3 x M4x50, and 1 section of a M14 threaded rod, about 12 cms in lenght. everything else is 3d printed.

    Electronics: DC Motor - MINORTA 27v Servomotor (from some old RICOH office printer) MCU - STM32, driver - BTS7960, 2 x 12V Fans.
    software - EMC firmware

    I've uploaded a video a couple of months ago, some minors changes have been made since then, as you can see in attached pictures.
