Companion generating a PPM signal - Enhancement #234

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
My idea is to use companion to configure a model in real time. it would output 
ppm through the computer's soundcard or USB device (another project), injecting 
the signal into a RF module or the trainer port of the tx. We could then see in 
real time how the model behaves and adjust the settings. like this we only had 
to flash the eeprom once when we're happy with the results. i think this would 
be a cool feature.
Companion can already take a joystick (tx) as an input, so half of the job is 
already there ;)
Of course we should not forget to remove the props when using this feature :)

I think this would be a pretty cool and unique feature

PPM output on a sound card is a pity and not portable between different os
a hw device is another project

you mean another hw device like a USB to PPM device? Or am I misunderstanding 
something? ;)

Well, we will have to find one then ;)
don't know what I'm looking for though :( I wish I knew a bit more about all 
this stuff.
