Is there a way to assign keyboard commands to buttons on a tx?

Mayven · November 13, 2023 at 9:10 PM

Can I assign my transmitter buttons to Aerofly RC keyboard commands? Two I'd like to use are:

x: toggle flight path

space: reposition model.

I use a NX10 tx in USB mode in Aerofly RC 10.

Thanks.

Unfortunately this is not possible, you have to use a tool e.g. Voice to Keyboard, If you have a microphone: https://voiceattack.com/

Thanks HRa - I’ll have a look, it seems like a good solution.

If you Like, I can give you the file for voiceattack for RC10 keyboard, but the words german you must then only change to english.

Thanks Hermann, I’ll have a look at the demo version first. I usually use a mac, but the voice to text functionality on that makes aerofly stutter, so I’ll try it on Windows and see how it goes.

Voice to Text make stutter? Under VR or normal monitor? What grafic Card you have?

For Macs, there is a program called "Enjoyable" (available in GitHub) where You can assign a Keystroke to a button on your controller.

Perhaps there is something similar available for PC Users...

Thanks so much for your advice everyone

Life has been making demands on me recently but I look forward to trying this out soon and letting you know how I went.

Thanks everyone. I tried "Enjoyable" for MacOS and it works perfectly. So I know have the momentary button on my Tx mapped to the space bar. This means during those training sessions where I crash every 5 seconds, I can restart immediately by pressing this button, or keep flying if I just loose a wheel or wing.

You can also adjust the delay of the automatic reset in the settings so that you don't have to press anything.

Yes - but if the plane is still flyable after a collision, I like to keep flying. Admittedly this is not usually the case

Great suggestion, thank you - works perfectly with my Jumper Tlite V2 🤩 (even though finding the right "sliders" for the 2 / 3 position switches was a bit tricky since many are hidden by default)

Now I can switch spawn points and trigger a hand launch right in VR 😎

Works great, too!

However, it does not seem to map the S1 / S2 dials / turn knobs of my Radiomaster TX16s, anybody has found a solution for that? On Joytokey on Windows, it works, and I would like to use them on MacOS to change the FOV too.. I now instead used 2 two-position switches for that as a workaround..
