I am looking for Java programmers and testers to help work out bugs. If you think you fit the build email me and I'll add you to the list.

  • Hello Ryan!
    I'm trying to send commands to the Turnigy 9x with a joystick.
    What kind of hardware would I need between the joystick and the Turnigy 9x?

  • Ryan have you made any progress?

  • Looks like the compufly device is no longer available from Flytron or RMRC. Anyone know a source for one?

  • Any chance this could be ported to be accessible in a webpage to control a TX connected to a remote PC?

    Thanks

  • Whats new with this project. Eagerly waiting an update! Have you finished fully porting this to java?

  • Dear all,
    Fristly, thank’s from France for your work with JoystickToPPM.
    I use CompuFly software version 1.35 and JoystickToPPM
    But there is a problem :
    CompuFly software is limited to 7 chanels
    JoystickToPPM software don’t manage the POV button on top of joystick as CompuFly software (JoystickToPPM reset the position of the camera when we release POV button – CompuFly don’t reset camera position)
    It’s the reason why I need, if it’s possible, an evolution of JoystickToPPM, to don’t reset the camera position when I release POV button.
    Does it possible ? I ask to a friend (good guy in Java) to do this, but it seem that there is no all sources, and java component in the zip file downloaded. http://code.google.com/p/joystick-to-ppm/
    Could you help me.
    Thank’s and best regards.

  • I would like to add a function in to use the trim sliders on my joystick. I guess you would have to couple the trim slider to each axis. Also i was having issues getting my mode switch and my y axis to work on my Logitech G940 system. They are not recognized by the program

  • @Danstah I have not updated it yet. I have been really busy with work. Have you tested the current version? Anything you would like to change?

    No one has left me any feedback so I assume the only issues are the ones I have listed.

  • Have you made any new progress on this project lately?

  • Yes, this was very useful. Thank you for your help, Ryan!
