Description
Build your 3D Printed Sim Racing Pedals for $50
Budget-friendly DIY pedal set
This DIY pedal set is affordable and budget-friendly. The design is intentionally focused on keeping production costs low, using 3D printed parts, an Arduino Pro Micro board and one potentiometer for each pedal.
You can view the “Build Cost” section to get a cost estimate.
Made For All Skill Levels
No advanced skills needed. With our step-by-step tutorial and detailed documentation, assembling your pedal set is straightforward, intuitive, and honestly… pretty fun.
If you run into any problems, the “Help & Question” section is there to help.
Fully Adjustable
You can set the pedal hardness, end-stop limits, and footrest position.
Each pedal is adjustable and will adapt to your driving style.

THROTTLE AND CLUTCH PEDALS
The throttle and clutch pedals are linear, you can adjust the hardness, angle, stop and the footrest position. Concerning electronics, it’s a potentiometer fixed by two levers with a solid structure.
BRAKE PEDAL
The pedal is similar to the throttle, but you will need to use a small spring and elastomers. You will also need to reinforce the print settings to prevent breakage.
We recommend 50% infill, gyroid pattern, and a minimum of 4 walls.
Accessible and easy to make
The pedals are not designed to compete with high-end load cell or professional sim racing pedals. Instead, they are aimed at casual and arcade-style driving simulations where affordability, simplicity and ease of building matter more than realism.
They are a great fit for games such as Forza Horizon, Forza Motorsport, Euro Truck Simulator 2, American Truck Simulator and many other racing and driving games.

MATERIAL SELECTION
The strength and durability of the pedals largely depend on the material used. High-quality filaments such as PLA offer excellent strength and resilience, making the pedals capable of withstanding significant pressure and stress. Here are recommendations for printing 3D solid parts.

DESIGN OPTIMIZATION
3D printing allows for intricate designs with optimized geometry. This means that the 3D printed sim pedals is designed with reinforced structures that provide additional strength without adding excessive weight. The longest part that need to be printed is 220mm.
CUSTOMIZATION AND MAINTENANCE
One advantage of 3D printing is the ease of maintenance and customization. If a part of the pedal wears out or breaks, it can be easily reprinted and replaced. This ensures the overall durability of the pedal system is maintained over time.
ELECTRONICS
This pedal unit is designed for use with an Arduino Pro Micro board and a potentiometer for each pedal.
The Arduino sketch and the wiring diagram are included in the file.
