Hey everyone! So glad to have found this online community. I get a little overwhelmed with projects that I see here. I need a lot of help upgrading my Joyrider I built couple of years ago. I got a little tired and lost interest playing my flight sim since it didn't have motors to it. Using your body weight for motion is not as fun as what I see here. Friends and family laugh when they see me rock my body in all axis and sometimes gives me pain in my back and neck. I stumbled on Thanos' AVR Controller V1.6 USB. I got so excited that I made my own PCB board from his instructions. Next up, order the parts and solder away. I don't even know what to do next after I assembled these components. I told myself just go for it and learn as I go. I even ordered circuit boards from a guy from New Zealand his extra AVR V1.5 designed by TronicGR. I bought it just as backup project to learn from.
I have never heard of H-bridges and AVR controllers before nor Arduino stuff but I am so motivated and started reading every night. I have a goal to have a working Joyrider Motion Sim by the end of this year. My PVC Joyrider frame calls my name everyday. Cheers all and hope to get support here as I tackle my project.
