Airsim: How to connect AirSim and Steering Wheel(Logitech G27)

Created on 22 Feb 2018  路  4Comments  路  Source: microsoft/AirSim

Hi. I downloaded the binary version of AirSimNH in windows 10. I want to connect my steering wheel Logitech G27 with AirSim. I don't know how to do that. Should I change the source code of the binary version?

I have Logitech G920 steering wheel and tried connecting it to the blocks environment. I edited the settings.json file and now it looks like this.
{
"SeeDocsAt": "https://github.com/Microsoft/AirSim/blob/master/docs/settings.md",
"SettingsVersion": 1.2,
"PhysXCar" : {
"RC": {
"RemoteControlID": 0
}
}

}

But when I stop and play the unreal engine I am still getting the control mode as keyboard. Is there something else to be done?

Some steering wheels work out of the box. For those that don't, if it can use the windows gamepad driver, you might have luck using x360ce to allow it to emulate a gamepad.

I found that a plugin added the support of Logitech G920. I wonder whether it is supported out of box.

Yes, there is build in support now for G920. We haven't tested other wheels but please feel free to report here if it worked.
