I suggest not to send the raw encoder data to FlightGear but to compute the frequencies internally in your arduino and send the result as a frequency or channel to fgfs. I used this here: http://wiki.flightgear.org/index.php?title=Howto:_Build_your_own_procedure_trainer#Radio_Stack Sources available here: https://gitorious.org/flightgear-pmpt/fg155 I use I2C communication between my PC and the microcontrollers, but that could easily be changed to a serial-over-usb protocol for the Arduino. best Torsten ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and publish websites with WebMatrix Use the most popular FREE web apps or write code yourself; WebMatrix provides all the features you need to develop and publish your website. http://p.sf.net/sfu/ms-webmatrix-sf _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
