[X12S] Add calibration for analog joystick

The title says it all :-)

Please, do not forget about this issue.
Thanks in advance

Yes, please do it. 😉

[Luznatural]

Any progress on this issue?
Thanks in advance

I hope that we have taken in account that when the calibration of the analog joystick is fixed, it will also means that you could use that analog stick in the X12S as an input for producing outputs you want to perform, with mixes in the middle, like any other joystick.
Thanks developers, you are doing a great job for saving X12S users from oblivion.

Could you move this issue up to ETX 2.8.3, as version 2.9.0 continues going back in time and more and more version continue appearing in the middle?
Thanks in advance

No, as there is no implementation for this yet. This is an issue so that it doesn't get forgotten.

Just to be clear about the actual status of this: it is actually only the visualisation that is missing, that joystick is actually calibrated if you move it properly during calibration.

Raphaelcoeffic, the problem is not only the calibration screen of the analog joystick (AJ). The problem is that EdgeTX doesn't recognize the AJ in any way.

The analog joystick was working in OpenTX as a totally functional third stick, with two differentiated movements: horizontal and vertical. When you release it, always returns to the center in both directions, like the right stick in any standar radio with mode 2 selected.

I have re-checked again with EdgeTX v2.9.0, and found the following:

• AJ is not listed in any of the pages nor options in the System/Hardware list.
• You cannot select the AJ as an input or source to produce any mix or output, when it should be treated like the other two standard joysticks.
• AJ is totally useless as it is now.

EdgeTX should be able to allow you to use the AJ to produce outputs. As an example, in the early versions of OpenTX (v 1.5.2) I was able to use the AJ as input for moving the gimbal of my FPV camera installed into the canopy of my planes. I moved it to look up, down, right or left progresivelly, like if I were onboard my plane.

I hope the EdgeTX team should have mercy for us and look for a solution!!!

Frsky X12S is an oustanding (and expensive) radio that doesn't deserve yet to be retired of service.

I don't think this is the case, you should see 2 analog sources:

• JSx
• JSy

Which version are you on? May I see your radio.yml?

[Luznatural]

I am working with ETX v 2.9.0
I am unable to see any of those.
Where do you have to look for finding them?
If I go to hardware and down to inputs, and I see calibratio, sticks, pots, sliders and switches. I do not find JSx JSy in any of the options.
I only see any analog indication in debug, and thereIf I move the analog joystick the numbers do not change.
Here you have my radio.yml file:
