Re: USB Converter for MS Sidewinder 3DPro, PP, and FFP

I was having trouble because I connected PB0 to the bottom of the RX LED, instead of the bottom of the resistor below the RX LED! Oops, my mistake, I described where to solder wrong. Glad you got that working The remaining issue is the calibration is off and the button initially seem slow to be rec...
