Has any one tried  to put Joystick instead for transmitter rockers for real flight experience?
I want to design any suggestion...
Want to put joystich for Ailerons, Elevator. Rudder paddle and throttle on left.
Installing thkem on a car seat and have fun with my F22 and FPV...

Possible with APM2 coupled with 3DR radios. You can use any off the shelf controller that you can plug into a laptop/pc.

just changed the wires, placed the trimmers in the buttons in the joystick itself, using this for the hovercraft....

Good thought! I have been always thinking for FPV multirotor - there wouldnt be a more fulfilling experience than a joystick. MavRKB - can you post a video on the maneuverability with and without Joystick? It will help to appreciate the difference.

Im so angry that I didnt made any working video using this joystick! 
Unfortunately the antenna connector broke so I dont get any range, this project is 9 months old and I used to use this only for my hovercraft and now the parts which were in it(hovercraft) are being used somewhere else.... So I cannot get any working video.. Sorry

did sometime back. no matter how much i try, i cannot return to this project... but someday will have to.

So this was the project you were talking about on facebook. Awesome work! Would like to meet you one day!

DId I, on FB? I prefer to keep FB for personal things, maybe just got kicked

Good Video! Try a FPV on a multi rotor if you are into it. Somehow i think it would be an experience

Thanks! I'm searching for the right equipment for the planes and quad... Will be buying it soon!
