Overview
Edited the MPM design to make it up to date with my newest single shifter design. Now it features:
Shorter paddle throw on all three paddles
More stable Fanatec mount with additional support
Replica of the original APM paddles
Of course with the shorter throw you will have to bend a little the switches metal arm (see video for reference).
Now with the shorter throw it feels even better. Have not tested, but clutch has 2 degrees less rotation and now should utilize better the whole throw.
All parts and assembly remain the same.
