Started my first button box. I purchased the buttons at Radio Shack and also the project box. I also purchased this USB controller- USB ControllerI should have the controller within the next 7-10 days and it should be a breeze to put it all together no soldering with these wires- WiresI will post more images as I put the box together.

don't get to many ideas, GSCE can only map 3 usb devices. I just got my CSR elites and have to unplug the button box. I guess you can use xpadder but I can't figure it out at the moment.

Looks great Brian. Making your own custom stuff is a lot of fun and that Derrick Spears stuff is really good. This is a project I did back in 2009. I used a USB game pad controller as the USB interface, hand soldered all the wires. This is when I had my old G25 wheel and custom button plate I made for it too. I don't plug in the button box anymore all though the brake bias knob still works, I never resolved the mechanics of the Ignition switch to be a toggle switch but function like a momentary button to be mapped. Still a work in progress I guess 6 years later, LOL. Oh the light switch turns on blue LED's that backlight the button box lables and the keyboard next to me.

Yah, You will like the DSD button controller 4sure. I really like your design of your Button Boxes they look Good. I use several of Derek's products and I won't take for them. And, the Warranty is the Best in the Industry. I've got most of my rig tore down ATM. or I'd put up a picture of it. After I got my new wheel (V2) I wanted to change thing up some more on it. I've got an 0butt0 0zone rig kinda/sorta customized for me, with a Fully adjustable wheel mount on it I built myself. It will let the wheel Tilt & adjust in and out also. It has a center Padded Console I built with my DSD short throw shifter and 2 of the DSD Button Boxes 1- Black MaxII & and a Track Boss. and a 7" MIMO touch screen for my Z1 software to run on. I run the 0l' V1 Fanatec Pedals that I really like and I have Never had any trouble with them at all. I built a Blower system with the Rubber Flex-Pipe to blow air on me where I need it the most when I'm hot on someones trail. ha-ha.(Yeah, I wish). As soon as I get it all back together I'll put up some Pic's of it.
