There are some simulator cables out there that you can buy from nearly any shop which names are well known. But as the name tells everything: cable. Get rid of the cable! Okay, you probably want to get rid of it and now you can! I'm using a "MCS digistump digispark" (lsusb) and the corresponding arduino library and also a Flysky FS-A8S with my FS-i6x. As this project uses the ppm protocol, any ppm receiver should work out of the box. Even any transmitter with ppm output should work.
- fs-a8s in ubuntu and windows
- fs-i6x trainerport (8-ch only; need to read more about ppm) => PPM is a 8 ch protocoll only => we have to deal with it!
- changed some variable names
- added attiny85 code for digispark/trinket
- added more channels (still not sure if stable and supported by the protocol itself) => 8 ch only, deal with it
- changed gap timing to 2100us => no more, but even less
- get rid of the jitter
- find more precise (small) timer-library for the attiny85
- test with other ppm input (DX6i)
- show up as joystick with two analog sticks
- change gamecontroller name
- external components for ???
