Overview
Mini Sim Flags for your sim racing rig. Very simple projects, single part print. Based on 5x5 25bit aRGB LED matrix.
I managed to connect in series 2 flags x25 LEDs, 16LED Rev Display and Shift Light with 7LEDs directly powered from the Arduino 5V - works great! Displays are daisychained with custom Distributor Board which you can see on pictures - every Display DOUT is connected to next Display's DIN.
Everything of course is controlled with SimHub and is setup as aRGB LED array.
Front cover is cut from 2mm HobbyGlass (Acrylic) and is tinted with automotive window 95% tint.
Animations can be found in the GitHub Link above in Description. There you will find the complete SimHub Led Configuration Profile featured in the attached video.
Built in GoPro mounting interface.
