Well I would really like to fly my planes using a nunchuck (I bought one for that purpose since i don't have a wii )...or control a camera on the plane (pan/tilt setup)
The plan is to connect the nunchuck to an arduino nano, which would generate a ppm signal which the rc transmitter turnigy 9x (connects to the trainer port with a 3,5mm audio cable) could read and send info to plane steering it ..
I've found some relevant link but I can't stitch the code, because I'm code illiterate..It's too advanced for me...
The most relevant link is this one from Ian Johnston:
