It claims to be MFI compatible so I see no reason why it should not work. But I haven't tried it so no guarantees.

Not sure if I should post this somewhere else:

I finally got an answer, in the forum, to why my wired USB gamepad was not working with fpv in spite of working with the suggested gamepad tester android app. I had a version of Android (11 I think) that doesn't work. So I tried it on another phone that didn't have that version, and it worked.

Someone was asking about the possibility to save MAPPINGs. I was afraid it meant that the the app forgot the mapping when you exited. I was trying to see if I could find some CONFIG file that I could save and/or even edit but I could not find anything. Maybe that could be found if the phone was rooted. But thankfully the app remembers the mappings that were made. My gamepad is identified in the menu as Shanwan Android Game. Is that something that was in the app, or an ID that the gamepad broadcasted? Could it be possible to save some other mapping under the Microsoft x box , and Magicsee R1 entries in the dropdown and use with another gamepad?

Now I'm trying to figure out the remapping controller interface.

I never want to use the flip functions. 𝑪𝒂𝒏 𝑰 𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒐𝒗𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒅𝒆𝒇𝒂𝒖𝒍𝒕 𝒎𝒂𝒑𝒑𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒇𝒍𝒊𝒑𝒔?? DPad UP for example. How come that is still there for forward flip, in spite of my getting it to map to TAKEOFF?

I*m trying to prepare to use VR FPV. I was annoyed when trying to film something only using phone touch while in bright light and barely seeing anything. So I'm going to have the phone in a VR head holder. I was glad to see that I could even do some things in the app, at least while not flying, like open menu, go up & down, select options with the gamepad.

I have seen now that the app imports the game pad ID. On a newly installed app there was only the onscreen controls listed before connecting.

Correct, the gamepad provides its ID which is used to store mappings for each gamepad separate. That is If the ID is unique. Some gamepads only provide a model name.

Gamepads cone in very different styles with different button and stick arrangements. There is no standard so some use different IDs for sticks and buttons.

Your controller calls the DPad Up button Axis_hat_y_1 instead. It most likely doesn't have another button it calls Dpad Up so you can't map any function to Dpad up.
To remove an unused mapping just double tap it.

Do you know the parameters about DJI Tello for PID Controller?? Like the mathematical model used.

Well, I´d been curious for kinda long time whether it´s possible to connect regular drone radios to the app using OTG cable, just like how I use my gamepad. Since I sold all my drones, but the tellos, had to wait till I find a cheap radio. A few days ago found a new Emax E8 radio for 10€. And it works fine. Had to remap the gimballs, but nothing else was needed. So, I have now a new T1d, this is for sale now, a T1s and a Emax E8.
