Comment by OlivierD. on August 12, 2011 at 2:04pm A step in the right direction. Me like a lot! I wonder if we can use other USB joysticks with that controler thingy that comes along.
Comment by William on August 12, 2011 at 4:08pm 3 proportional channels isnt enough. 4 should be a minimum and 5 or 6 would be ideal.
Comment by Anish on August 13, 2011 at 7:29am this is cool, the way forward :-)
Comment by Allen Bishop on August 13, 2011 at 7:44am I have the Microsoft Sidewinder (Force Feedback) joystick which has 9 switches plus the X Y joystick. It is a USB device and would be great if it interfaced with the FPV box. Anyone know if this has been sucessfully used?
