Hi Community,

I would like to use Mobiflight (with Arduino Mega 2560) to create a push-to-talk button for a handmike, to let WIN10 see it as a game-controller push-button, to use it later inside a flightsim as a mike-button (e.g with FSUIPC).

Happy about any ideas.

I can´t use an already given "wording" like "Cpt handmike PTT" (in Mobiflight), I am looking for a way inside Mobiflight, when a button is pressed, to let WIN10 see it (like a game controller). So I can work with this button later inside FSUIPC.

I would build this with a cheap little Arduino within the Mic.
Why emulate a Joy Button if you can build a real "joystick" that is detected perfectly.

If you like to use MF..... Think about VJOY.

We can easy emulate Buttons into FSUIPC (Via the FSUIPC internal Virtual Joysticks) and can handle the virtual System.
BUT
Those Buttons are not seen by windows and can not be used with programs like Teamspeak/Ivao

Vjoy work for Both !
Good Luck !
