Mission Planner Joystick setup problem

Posted by Brad Jackson on December 22, 2014 at 3:57am

I'm trying to get a USB joystick working with my Cheerson CX-20 quadcopter in Mission Planner,

I am able to configure the various axes under Joystick setup but they do not get saved.

I get an error about file access permissions to "Mission PlannerjoystickaxisArduCopter2.xml"

Has anyone else experienced this?

    Very old post but I am curious. Could you fix it and get joystick working with the CX 20?

    Thanks

    OK I found the problem... there seems to be a bug in Mission Planner

    The joystick setup file is supposed to be located here:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mission Planner\joystickaxisArduCopter2.xml

    But when trying to save the config, the app is trying to write to:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mission PlannerjoystickaxisArduCopter2.xml

    There is a missing "\" before joystickaxis....

    The workaround was to manually copy the XML file into the correct location and edit it with a text editor.
