Hi Felix
Sorry for my delay in responding. I was away for a
long weekend.
Thank you for making those changes. I will try them
even though you consider them inapparopriate.
I was trying to familiarise myself with real
time adjustments, as detailed in the Booz simulation section of the wiki, in
anticipation of buying hardware to run my own quad.
I must admit I was also a bit bored as my Tiny
V2.11 Funjet had crashed just before Xmas and had to wait to get a new airframe
as none were in stock.
That dilemma is solved and I am currently
rebuilding as I write.
I will report back re: Bozz sim later in the
week.
PS: I also noticed a lot of repository updates for
scilab. Does this herald a user friendly (for people like me) set up guide for
the Booz Boards?
Regards
Stephen

Hi Stephen,
I just commited some fixes for the joystick. You don't need sw/ground_segment/joystick. Your joystick should automatically be mapped to /dev/input/js0 Although which axes are mapped to which input channel is still hardcoded. So you could have inverted axes or different assignments. It works for me. But just as a disclaimer: The sim is not meant to be used as a flight trainer or anything like that. Joystick for the sim is not really of any practical use.
