Clutch Paddles for Sim Racing

thingiverse

Clutch paddle design takes inspiration from Amstudio's innovative paddle shifters featured in their video. Additionally, this concept was also requested by DiegoCola. The main body of the unit relies on M3 screws and nuts, utilizing 30mm screws for secure housing. Four screws are strategically positioned to attach the paddle and the entire unit firmly onto the wheel's body. In preliminary testing, these four screws proved sufficient in preventing any movement or instability. Eight-millimeter diameter by five-millimeter height magnets are employed, arranged to repel each other and create a pulling motion without the need for a spring. The specific magnets used possess a 1.9-kilogram pull force.
