GX12 rc transmitter as QGC joystick

Hi
I was having concerns that I wasn’t getting the best out of the Xbox controller. Being a “busy” rc boater, I was sure that a RC transmitter could be used, and possibly give better stick accuracy?
I have managed to get a GX12 transmitter working as an alternative to the Xbox controller.
I needed 6 buttons, for Arming, disarming, Acro, Loiter, Auto and Manual.
Using the SA and SD for the 1st 2, then I split the 6 position switch to individual toggle buttons, the 1st 4, SW1, to SW4 are then available. By using the same layout (reference to the EdgeTx guides,) as the Xbox, then the QGC button function mapping followed. By using the ELRS-LUA ble-joystick the GX12 is paired with the laptop, and QGC recognises it.
Looking good
