Have you built a VRC Pro Arduino project? Share your code and photos in the RC Tech forums. Happy racing!

Using an Arduino and a motor driver (L298N), you can read telemetry data from VRC Pro via USB Serial. When you understeer or hit a curb, the Arduino vibrates a DC motor attached to your wheel.

Connect a strip of WS2812b LEDs to the Arduino. Write a script that monitors the Throttle axis. When the throttle value exceeds 950 (full gas), the LEDs turn red. When it drops below 100, they turn blue (brake). This is purely cosmetic but adds immersion.

: The Arduino Joystick Library is a critical component for these builds.

⚠️ Avoid Arduino Nano (non-USB HID) unless paired with a second PC program like Serial2HID .
