  Found this amazing Cessna throttle block on thingiverse:https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4082809

  Downloaded the UniJoy repository:
  https://github.com/AlanChatham/UnoJoy

  Compiled and flashed UnoYouArduinoSample from the repository:
  https://github.com/AlanChatham/UnoJoy/tree/master/UnoJoy/UnoJoyArduinoSample

  Scrolled through the guide to install Atmel Flip to install new firmware on the Mega16U2 USB controller:

  Installed firmware from the UnoJoy repository from here:
  https://github.com/AlanChatham/UnoJoy/tree/master/UnoJoy/ATmega8u2Code/HexFiles

  Unplugged and replugged and the system came up with a native UnoJoy joystick showing up in the system with 14 working buttons, two axis, and a HAT. Amazing!

  I wish the system had more axis but this is already quite amazing. Enough to put a simple joystick or flight sim controller together with a few flying wires.

  It seems like there is a way to expand this firmware to have more axis and buttons:
