Problems connecting Arduino to MSFS2024

Projects General Guidance
1

Hey folks, I’ve recently been working on a project involving an Arduino Uno R4 Minima in which I am trying to create a throttle for MSFS 2024. As of now, the physical part is all done, I have a 10k Potentiometer wired to my Arduino and have a basic code printing values for 0-100 representing the throttle value to be sent to MSFS 2024.

I’ve been having trouble, however, finding a way to connect the throttle to MSFS 2024. I’ve tried BitsandDroids flight connector, Mobiflight (Which isn’t compatible with my board), and they all seem not to be working. Anyone have any ideas for how to go about doing this?

What is "MSFS 2024"? You talk about it like everyone should know.

It might help if you read the forum guide in the sticky post at the top of most forum sections.

See if this helps.

Thanks @Terrypin but I was hoping @penguin_77 would explain.

Checking out the documentation for R4 minima, I saw that it can be used as a HID mouse or keyboard, but HID joystick does not seem to be included. That seems odd, as other Arduino with HID capability like Leonardo, Pro Micro etc do support joystick. I guess R4 minima is relatively new, but why only 2 out of 3?

@penguin_77 perhaps it would be easier to get yourself a Pro Micro for this.
