Asare Pendular Rudder

Description

This is my shot at 3d printed pendular rudder pedals inspired mainly by the Thrustmaster TPR and many other community made designs. I am well aware that the Arduino Uno and potentiometers aren't the best choices for this task but they fit my budget and seem to work pretty well. If enough people are interested I'm happy to develop a version with hall sensors and a proper microcontroller. The Arduino for this project is running Unojoy(more info here https://github.com/AlanChatham/UnoJoy). I've included a .f3d that includes a full assembly of the pedals including joints, hardware, and section analysis for a better understanding of how they're meant to be assembled. Again, if enough people are interested I would be happy to post more specific information pertaining to the assembly on my Instagram.
