Any way to make this work with mac #47

I'm fairly new to coding and want to connect my old drone RC to my MacBook, but vJoy isn't supported with macOS, so I was wondering if anyone knows an alternative to vJoy that would be supported on macOS and be able to read the data from my Arduino and make it an input source to my MacBook.

Unfortunately this software does not work with mac. I did make few attempts but it turned out there's no usable virtual joystick driver for mac. I only found one solution ( https://github.com/unbit/foohid ) but it would require the user to lower the security level of macos in order to allow it to install.

Your best chance is to use Arduino pro micro or something of that sort, to directly emulate USB HID joystick: https://www.instructables.com/Arduino-LeonardoMicro-as-Game-ControllerJoystick/
