Hello everyone in todays video we will build a switch panel or button box that can be used for Any Simulator or game that you can bind buttons to.
This is the easiest build that i have done and there is no programing or coding that needs to be done. Your button box will show as a game controller in windows and that makes it so easy to bind . No need for extra software like mobi flight or spad or fsuipc , You wont need any of that using this method i9 show today. First is all the hardware then we go over some tips about box building and then assemble the panel and wire everything to the board. We nee to download their software to tell the board where we placed our encoders and the pulse width which is very easy and thats it. We spawn into the sim and bind the buttons and we are off to flying ITS THAT EASY.
If you have any questions please post them in the comments and make sure to like share and sub to the channel. Big thanks to our Captain's Club Members for your monthly support. Thank you to all of our subscriber and commenters .
