RC Heli controlled by PC Joystick
Heli: Nine Eagles – Solo Pro microcontroller: arduino Joystick: Saitek Cyborg Evo Force PC: Windows 7 – x64 I know, it’s poor video quality.. this is the first video of this project, expect some better videos to come. I connected a rc transmitter to my PC using an AD8403 4 channel digital potentiometer which is connected to the 4 potentiometers inside the transmitter. I will describe the project in detail and add the URL here. This should work with any transmitter / rc heli.. you just have to connect the digipots to the transmitter. Feel free to ask any questions.
Video Rating: 0 / 5
Dear viewers, This screenshot video is made by and for rc helicopter flight enthusiasts. Please don’t get me wrong, i certainly do not pretend and think that I can do it well (watch my crashes ;-). This video is just meant to see the helicopter move related to my transmitter stick. I know by practicing that you need to get a feel and understanding by al the flight directions that your helicopter can make, so in my first days I was searching for videos or photos who reveal that! Hope that some of you out there have some use of this. Regards to all heli addicts 😉 Miro

thats pretty badass!
@drumatic86 do you have any experience with flying helis?
@StrNase it would be a nice heli simulator 😉
@drumatic86 it’s possible, but you need a bigger heli and flying from FPV only is not too easy..
hi i’m thinking about to controll a RC helicopter with a joystick but combined with a alive onboard camera, what do you think about ?
@herctrap PC sends to microcontroller (arduino), then it’s sent to a 4 channel digital potentiometer.. as mentioned in the description
rc receives signal from the radio transmiter
how the radio transmiter receives signal from the joystick?
thanks a lot
@herctrap cs cord??
lol
