How the heck do you use an XBOX360 controller with the chicklet??

Then the answer is still yes. If the inputs are to sensitive, then you should scale them. For example, if you desire more control over the lower 1/3 of the throttle, just write a function that scales the input so the lower 1/3 of the output to the PWM is spread over a larger fraction of the joystick movement.

lets say you want more control over the output range 127-168. Scale the input by dividing the actual joystick value by a constant greater than 1 or multiply the joy value by a constant less than 1. You will need a conditional to evaluate if the joystick is <=168 in this example. If the condition is true you would apply the scaling to the input value.

#define SCALING_FACTOR .8

If (joy <= 168 && > 0)
{
unsinged char pwm;
pwm = scale(joy);
}

unsigned char scale(unsigned char joy_val)
{
new_pwm = joy_val * SCALING_FACTOR;
return new_pwm;
}

Now this does not account for the reverse values but you get the idea. This is just an example and probably wont work.

Thanks! i think ill try it out!
