# SBus-HID

Need to control a robot without being tied to a WIFI or LTE network? Prefer good old joysticks instead of laptop keys? This device allows you to easily connect an SBus RC receiver to a computer via a USB bus. The signal from the receiver is converted into USB HID Gamepad reports. Up to 8 analog channels are supported. The HID Gamepad can be interfaced with ROS, and the customizable axis mapping provides a flexible solution for controlling a variety of robots.\
The device runs fork of open-source [Universal-RC-Joystick](https://github.com/VBCores/8-Axis-Universal-RC-Joystick) firmware.\
Hex available [here](https://github.com/VBCores/8-Axis-Universal-RC-Joystick/releases/tag/v1.1).\
