MultiWii Joystick

Post by Wipo »

Hi,

I have added a joystick & gamepad feature in the MultiWiiConf software.
Currently It's only available for PC/Laptop with Windows. And its MultWii version 2.2.

The sofware is available for download. I also created a complete installation and user guide (webpage).
All details and the movie on the testflight can be found on http://foamcopter.blogspot.be/

I love the idea and I have gone through your blog too. Any plans of making this for V2.3?

i am trying something similar, but then I have a hard time controlling the quad.

@wipo : by the looks of it you were able to do the control pretty okay, were you using any special setting for the multiwii like custom PID?

- The plan is to make a modified version of the MWC v2.3

- PID settings on the FC board are the same when flying with normal RC or with the gamepad.

Nice idea. I try to found yours project sources fo adding RC and back video channel via UDP( on WiFi or 4G) but not luck. I had to write everything yourself (I use another joystick library) All look like this:

So good idea - add emulation of additional analog sticks via gamepad buttons for example for throttle or aux like I make in my version
