Description - Pinscape Virtual Pinball Kit Digital Plunger + Motion Sensor Kit

We present the new Virtual Pinball Kit with an analog plunger and motion sensor, now based on the Pinscape Pico. This new version completely replaces the old FRDM-KL25Z board and uses a Raspberry Pi Pico running the Pinscape Pico firmware, designed specifically to provide ultra-precise plunger position tracking for any virtual pinball machine.

The new controller converts the mechanical movement of the plunger into a high-resolution analog signal, allowing precise control of launch strength. Its performance is smooth, stable, and extremely low-latency, guaranteeing a realistic experience in all major pinball simulators.

In addition, the system includes an MMA8451 accelerometer module to manage nudge / TILT. This sensor detects lateral nudges and hits with high sensitivity, accurately reproducing TILT faults without the need for a physical pendulum. Everything comes calibrated and ready to use.

The kit includes our Suzo Happ Plunger equipped with a linear potentiometer mounted on a custom 3D-printed bracket. It connects directly to the Pinscape Pico controller, which in turn communicates with the PC via USB. The whole system arrives fully programmed and assembled, ready for final adjustments in Visual Pinball, VPX, Future Pinball or Pinball FX.

For more information about the official Pinscape Pico project, visit the creator's page: https://github.com/mjrgh/PinscapePico/

How does it work?

The plunger assembly includes a 3D-printed bracket with a linear potentiometer installed at its base. This potentiometer detects the full travel of the rod and sends the signal to the Pinscape Pico controller. The Pico processes the signal and converts it into an analog input compatible with pinball simulators.

The integrated MMA8451 module adds nudge and TILT functions, detecting physical movement of the cabinet. The entire setup connects to the PC by USB, and calibration is performed through the Pinscape control panel.

Each installation may vary slightly, so some adjustments inside the software may be required. The project link provides detailed guides.

Lighting buttons

To light up LED buttons, you will need 2 Xin Mo ground cables, available at this LINK. One cable must be connected to any GND pin on the controller, and the other to a 5V or 9V pin depending on the brightness required.
