Default Midi controller used as a second joystick

Hi all,

I had this USB midi controller that I wanted to use for a long time.

As you can see there's a lot of knob, buttons and sliders which is pretty convenient. I finally achieved it using using hte info that is in this thread:

I think it's a good alternative to an expensive usb controller like the saitek trim wheel. The controls are really precise and it totally changed my flight experience, mainly for trimming. I use it with my left hand and set up the gas/radiator/mixture/propeller/trims on it.

It's easy to find these kind of midi controllers for realy cheap on ebay, for example 25$:

Of course there's quite of a setup to do but I'm really satisfied with it now it's done. If anybody has question about it feel free to ask.
