I recently bought myself the official racing wheel controller for the Sega Dreamcast and was somewhat disappointed with its performance and poor handling out of the box. I set out to fix it with a simple microcontroller circuit which is demonstrated in this video.

You can find more information on my website here including a download of the circuit diagram and code: https://benryves.com/products/dedeadz...

Update 2025-12-16: I occasionally have some mods for sale assembled on a proper PCB; installation just requires a screwdriver. https://benryves.com/products/dedeadz... shows the installation process and photos of this mod. If you're interested please drop me an email (the address can be found on my channel profile) and I can let you know if I have any in stock and what the price/postage would be.

Update 2021-07-05: n00b on circuit-board.de has developed a PCB and written a full tutorial for this mod, please see https://circuit-board.de/forum/index.... if you'd like to build this yourself. The tutorial contains links where you can order a PCB.
