Description
Hello!
Some of you may have seen or printed my previous virtual pinball controllers. This one is my latest, and is intended to allow you to build the lowest possible cost blue tooth VR Pinball Controller for Meta Quest or PCVR. I specifically designed it for use with Zen Pinball FX VR. I removed all unnecessary parts and replaced expensive commercial parts with DIY components (e.g. ESP32 board for bluetooth keyboard button emulation). It works great and is much lighter and easier to build than previous versions. Please like and comments so I can continue to improve these controllers!
