Help,
i have been using mission planner and apm 2.xx and pixhawk 2 for many years with no problem, but …
there seems to be a driver clash when i try to enable the joystick in mission planner. It briefly recognises what joystick is connected and 3-5 seconds later mission planner crashes and closes.
I have tried while connected to pixhawk, not connected to pixhawk, enter configuration before plugging in joystic, joystic plugged in first.
all situations crash 3-5 seconds after enabling joystick.
This is the joystick test app from SharpDX.Directinput, the same lib that MissionPlanner uses. If it crash as well, then the problem is not with Mission Planner, but rather the driver of your joy.
(If you don’t trust the app, and have a Visual Studio I can give you the location of the test prog, so you can compile it yourself)
