(again, now as attachments) Hi, this is a driver for Zhen Hua PCM-4CH RC transmitter (commonly used in cheap Ready To Fly RC helicopters) which using "Zhen Hua 5-byte protocol" for using them as a four axis joystick via serial port.
Transmitter connected to serial port (19200 8N1) sending periodically 5 bytes where first byte is for synchronization and next four bytes are values of axis.
