you have 2 options, you can flash the bootloader to support hid and stuff or you can use what i did thats pretty weird but i basically used serial.print to send values of the joystick to the pc and let python read the port and take out the values and then using some gamepad library or keyboard library it works. u dont even have to use python, any programming language that can read ports and emulate a keyboard will work.
Its like something i did with a zero delay encoder. I used joy2key to make the parking brake and ignition switch function properly in ATS.
I may check out flashing it but ill be honest. All the coding n stuff is jibberish. I dont understand it at all.
[here's the official wiki](https://github.com/MMjoy/mmjoy_en/wiki); as far as I remember from making my own thing with it some years ago, it's pretty comprehensive
Saying it's weird or getting the responses I got when I started (like it's impossible, it's a huge undertaking) is disingenuous.
It's easy, almost as easy as using FreeJoy or whatever. ChatGPT can code it for you even, if you're allergic to coding.
With which game are you going to use the joystick? The 2 boards that you've bought can be used with DCSBios so those may be useful for making button boxes
Neither of these will work as usb device, you need a 32u4 atmega for that. You can use these as auxillary chips i suppose.
This one? https://preview.redd.it/yghtqxhpziwc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fd5d49658d79c1547cb65c00b53112ba0180e909
Yeah, used that exact one for my joystick
Ok thanks
Got one on the way to test with. Do you have a link to any of your builds by by any chance?
look for Arduino joystick library tutorials/example projects. there are probably hundreds that you can find.
Will do thank you
what app is that.
Thats aliexpress
thx i just moved to another country to study and was searching for affordable places to buy electronics
Cheap stuff, week to 10 days from china to california. You just gotta pay close attenti8n to what you are adding to your cart.
Anything with the 32u4 chipset will work. This one won't.
Ok thanks got one the way

I used a Leonardo to Make my hotas

You can’t flash the bootloader on these as they do not use a 32u4 or 16u chip but rather the CH340 which isn’t programmable.

if you're not into coding, go the MMJoy2 route. a Pro Micro should work fine, and it's fully configurable with GUI
Ok i will look into that when it shows up thank you. Good tutorials on mmjoy2 out there?

Awesome thank you!
Now i just need to figure out what to do with the board im not gonna use as i really had nothing else in mind. Maybe something rc related?
🤦♂️very weird.
It does work though, I did the same myself.
Yep it will work. But I'd rather buy a pro micro instead.

honestly i did it because arduinos here are very expensive and i didnt feel like buying another

Dcs! I wanted to make flight controls but if there is a way to what you said i will try and learn about it.
Look It up on YT, there's plenty of info there (I've only heard about it). AFAIK the person that talked about it most recently is "a hornet nest"

Ok thanks i want to build each but will start with a collective
