AA516: I intended to do my final project on just the visualization, but after seeing how cool it was to have the plane in front of me, I ended up connecting an Xbox controller and using that to control the simulator! I think I need to tweak the gain on the signals, as my plane is responding something fierce to even moderate inputs. Anyway, I am excited to get this fully working!
Thanks, I'm glad it was helpful. I'll try to get the visualization video up soon. If you are subscribed to the channel hopefully you'll get notified. Thanks for watching!
AA516: Very cool that Simulink is so easy to interface with a controller. I have a PlayStation 5 controller that I hooked up to it and I was impressed that Simulink was able to interface with the controller's sensor that differentiates partial and full trigger pulls. I believe most gaming controllers don't have that feature, and only detect a binary pulled/not pulled for the triggers, so I've found that a lot of flight simulators don't let you set the triggers to be an axis, even if you have a controller that has the triggers as an axis. So they never let you set the rudder controls to be the triggers, which to me seems like a vary natural mapping of a stick + rudder to the controller. For my RCAM, I will try to set it up to use the triggers as the rudder inputs and see how that goes.
Superb! I can't thank you enough for your wonderful communication style: just the right level of detail, crystal clarity and emphasis on crucial points. Bravo!

AE512: The Pilot Joystick All block did not work for me on a Mac with a Logitech joystick. However, I found that the 'Joystick Input' block does work if that helps anyone else!
AA 516 Just posting this in case someone runs into the same problem as I did when Matlab could not recognize the joystick. Go into the Control Panel of Windows -> select set up USB game controllers -> Advanced -> click the dropdown button and select the name of the joystick in case it is showing something else. If it still doesn't work go to the device manager click on your joystick and select uninstall device. Plug in the joystick and it should prompt you to install the driver again.
AE 512: Is this any different from using a PS4/5 controller? I remember trying for a PS3 controller a while back, but there were issues with the interface
Hello there, can you please elaborate what changes were made to the rcam model subsystem and if you could please illustrate the initialisation script for this simulink program, thank you.

AA516: I purchased the logitech flight stick, and following this guide made everything super easy to setup.
You literally SAVED my final degree project!!! Let me know if you have a patreon or something cause i'd love to give you a small tip

AA516: This was cool to see. I was able to get my virtual controller working since I didn't have a physical one.
Very nicely explained. Looking forward to your visualisation video. Thank you very much.

Great advice thanks for the pointers!
you said you made some augmentations and modifications on rcam model. Can you share this in the video ?
Yes please. Did you find mistakes in the model ?
thank you sir ,i'm asking if you can share some lessons of a robust control ?
The RCAM model you are using in this video can you plz share it
AE 512: Is this any different from using a PS4/5 controller? I remember trying for a PS3 controller a while back, but there were issues with the interface
AA516: My Pilot Joystick All shows 16 Joystick IDs and none of them seem to affect the scope for some reason.
Could you interfere the electrical power module with different angle deflection of the primary control surface
AA 516: Hello Professor, why does it need a -1 gain for the aileron, the elevator, and the rudder when output those to the model?
It just depends on how your joystick defines a positive deflection and how you want to map that to a positive or negative control surface deflection.
Hello there, can you please elaborate what changes were made to the rcam model subsystem and if you could please illustrate the initialisation script for this simulink program, thank you.

Can I use my PS4 controller to do so? Works the same? I have not a flight Joystick

AA516: I cannot find the Display option on my toolbar. For context, I am using Simulink on a Mac.
Found it. It's now in Debug >> Information Overlays >> Signal Dimensions. But it doesn't show any dimensions in my model upon selecting it.
Resolved. Just disconnect the joystick, reconnect it and refresh. And now my signal dimension shows 6.
Hi professor, could you send me this RCAM .m and .slx file? I would like to see how it was built, since it is different from the class you teach. thank you
