@Ed
Thank you for the heads up on the new code and corrections.
"I have just corrected some errors in the code for both the arduino and processing... please come and download new copies if you are having issues..."
I finally got the processing sketch to run and the CP file running and printing out data to the serial Monitor and the Processing window. I did have to go into the CP file and correct the input pin from pin2 to pin8. I also did the mods you outlined above to get the Accel value.
It appears to be working fine for about 2 minutes. At that time, the processing sketch just does not receive or print any more values. It's like it just gets swamped with data and stops. If I stop the sketch and restart the sketch it will run for another couple of minutes before it stops again. The screen stays up and leaves the last received data on screen. The graph bars on the screen are a very nice touch especially the pitch one that changes color at the half stick position.
The only problem I am having at this time is that the throttle command does not work at all. :-[I may have the pins messed up or something, but the servos do not move or the graph and serial monitor show no throttle activity.
Keep up the great work mate and thank you for your effort on this project.
