Logitech g driving force shifter (+ optional progressive handbrake) to Thrustmaster


About

This repo contains all the information required to connect a Logitech G Driving Force shifter via it's serial DB9 connector and a USB Progressive handbrake to any Thrustmaster wheel with a 6-pin mini-DIN (PS/2) port via a RP2040. No modifications are required to any hardware maintaining full normal use.

The Shifter sends raw analog voltages for the 2 axis and a push button for reverse to the RP2040.
The handbrake communicates with the RP2040 via standard USB HID.
The RP2040 communicates to the Thrustmaster via I2C.
