I bought DCS: P-51D when it was on special the other day. I was having fun, but being an old-school spinny-propeller type plane, it requires laborious trimming to make it fly straight with a given engine setting, altitude and fuel load.

SOLUTION: BOX WITH KNOBS ON:



Took about three hours to build, but now I has knobs.

That is all.

    Very cool, excellent presentation too. I didn't listen to the whole video, how many bits of ADC are you using? Is there any oscillation/drift in the ADC reading? I usually put a few uF between the wiper and ground of each pot.

    I might do some filtering in software, there's a bit of jitter there, but nothing too bad. The ADCs on most of the atmel chips are 10-bit resolution.

    Looks too professional. Slap some duct tape on it to fix that :)
