Title: Joystick Transmitter
Post by: Antriksh on April 15, 2015, 03:56:35 PM
Has any one tried  to put Joystick instead for transmitter rockers for real flight experience?
I want to design any suggestion...
Want to put joystich for Ailerons, Elevator. Rudder paddle and throttle on left.
Installing thkem on a car seat and have fun with my F22 and FPV... ;D

Possible with APM2 coupled with 3DR radios. You can use any off the shelf controller that you can plug into a laptop/pc.

(http://) just changed the wires, placed the trimmers in the buttons in the joystick itself, using this for the hovercraft....

Good thought! I have been always thinking for FPV multirotor - there wouldnt be a more fulfilling experience than a joystick. MavRKB - can you post a video on the maneuverability with and without Joystick? It will help to appreciate the difference.

Im so angry that I didnt made any working video using this joystick! 
Unfortunately the antenna connector broke so I dont get any range, this project is 9 months old and I used to use this only for my hovercraft and now the parts which were in it(hovercraft) are being used somewhere else.... So I cannot get any working video.. Sorry

Good Video! Try a FPV on a multi rotor if you are into it. Somehow i think it would be an experience
