In this video today, I’ll be showing you how I turned my Arduino Leonardo microcontroller into a HID device, or human interface device, that is instantly recognised by and communicates with Windows 10, X-Plane 11 and MSFS2020.
I will also show you how to connect up three 10Kohm potentiometers to the Leonardo, so that each one of them successfully operates the throttle, prop and mixture controls respectively, in a virtual General Aviation aircraft.
