You need to run the CMD as administrator

Ok yes I have seen that error too, sorry, it has been 18mths since I had to do this on mine, but I found that every time I wanted to Flash the firmware I had to
relocate/browse to the File in the Folder, even if it was pointed there already and then it worked. I am not sure if this is a 2016-08-18 problem or if all the firmwares have this issue.

What kind of interface this "thumb-stick" use? The flat cable suggest something like serial or I2C.

Apparently this "thumb stick" work like Warthog throttle "slew", sliding and not tilting.
In Warthog throttle "slew" operation is less than desirable, what lead some people in replace with this analog version.

EDIT - Look at CTS mini-stick 254SA103B50B-ND, is 11x1x5mm.

Hi, just finished building a encoder, switches and buttons console for my X-Plane simulator flights and I'm amazed at how well MMJOY2 works with those little arduinos. Thank you so much @mega_mozg_13 and all the fantastic people that contribute in this topics, after reading tons of info I could understand everything.

Cheers

Hi, i'm trying to use MCP3208 and it's not working.

My board is Pro Micro.
I've checked all the wiring and i can't see why no input is detected. If i plug my 10 slider "middle" on the F4 intSensor instead of Chan 1 of the MCP3208 , it's worling .

Any idea ?
Thanks.

Edit : just in case it's this MCP https://fr.farnell.com/microchip/mcp3208-ci-p/convertisseur-a-n-12-bits/dp/1084269?st=MCP3208

From il2.ru:

"Attention! MOSI, MISO in different firmware differ.
This means, if you have soldered board connections for an 2014 firmware and after updated for an 2018 firmware, the axis stop work, due different pins for MOSI, MISO in this firmware, then need re-do wiring connections."

There is a newer 2018 MMjoy2 firmware? I have only seen some from 2015 and 2016 and am currently using version 20160818_upd as 20161101 didn't report buttons correctly for me....

Hi, I think you have one extra axis. On the first post it says up to 8 axis.

You are right it says 8 but the Image below has 9 (AI) Pins marked from Wiki.......

but B6 (10) is needed for TLE5010/5011 Boards if using them? if not it can be used too it seems.

Windows DInput support 10 or 12 axes, but the axes above # 8 are reserved for POV HAT - Saitek X-52 use some of this extra axis in extra POV HAT on throttle, hence need a specific firmware with support for this axes.

An previous MMjoy2 Firmware has support for 2 POV HAT.

Then, the practical use in most games still 8 axes - don't know about X-Plane.

Is there a hard limit on 4 axis to button ranges?

How to wire in mmjoy2 the 5point Rotary Switch? i want to use to simulate the ignition of cessna 172. thank you

Depends on how this ignition switch work in you simulator.

If allow assign a key for each postion (L - R - Both - Start):

Wire L, R, Both and Start in 4 buttons input in Arduino (MMjoy2).

- An way to make "Start" position momentary, using an key and spring, attached to rotary switch.

https://cessna172sim.allanglen.com/docs/key-switch/

If the sim use only 2 buttons/keys, one for "next" and one for "previous", try set this rotary switch for emulate an encoder, see here how:

http://www.737ng.co.uk/simple%20encoder.pdf
http://www.737ng.co.uk/switch_as_encoder.pdf

You wire rotary switch in 2 buttons inputs of Arduino - using the "truth table" and set this 2 buttons inputs as encoder in MMJoySetup.
