Talk:How to install and use a joystick

Worms32: Olliw can you add an option as reversing the joystick movement? For example in my joystick left right works well but I want my gimbal tilts down when I push joystick forward (like in airplane control) but it does just the opposite.

OlliW: It's already possible, just swap the Min and Max values (i.e. max e.g. negative and Min positive), see also description of Min/Max parameters in http://www.olliw.eu/storm32bgc-wiki/Configure_the_RC_Input#GUI_Settings

Joystick setup problem

Having trouble setting Joy1 input on Pitch. Voltage on Joy1 is 1.6 Volts to GND. and results in stable pitch motor. Moving pot to raise volts to 2.3 Volts to GND pitches camera down as desired but only to about 45 degrees. Trying to pitch down more by raising Joy1 voltage causes pitch motor to flip upside down and rotate erratically. ALL to ABOVE TAKES PLACE WITH THE PAN MODE DEFAULT ON HOLD HOLD HOLD. The joystick pot is a 5K pot removed from a servo. 1. Why does it respond at all to the joystick when the pan mode is on HOLD HOLD HOLD? 2. If I set it on PAN HOLD HOLD the flipping over and erratic behavior happens instantly and can not be stopped by any setting of the Joystick Pot. Even if powered off and restarted. It will not Pan at all with it on PAN HOLD HOLD default pan mode.
