I have been working on making my 100% diy home f16 cockpit and I got my throttle connected and working but then I wanted to make my joystick. I have an anolog stick just like the ones you would find on a xbox controller but a little bigger and its seprate. I coded it and stuff in ardiouno but im not sure how I would encode it into mobiflight, please help me??

Hi axwt,

if your joystick is recognized in windows and is declared as HID-Device, then it should be possible to handle it with MobiFlight.
So start MobiFlight and create a config on the inpuit section. Edit this config (click the "..." on the right side), and click on "module". If your Joystick here is shown as device, chose it and look a line below and chose the function of the device. Please do NOT use the MobiFlight Modules button on the MF main page! That would be successless.
