+Hobbyking 6CH RC Transmitter shaped USB HID joystick Mode 2
+http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__20951__Hobbyking_6CH_RC_Flight_Simulator_System_Mode_2_.html
+
+If you want to use this file for the same product but mode 1 the axis index 
+numbers have to be re-arranged, the rest will be exactly the same.
+
+This RC TX joystick has four axes,2 buttons, one dial, which are labeled on the
+RC TX joystick
+
+The button and dial give their output on an **axis** type not button type
+
+The button ""MIX" is not useful and hardwired to mixing and does NOT give
+indepenadant output, better remove it from your RC joystick.
+
+The 6CH Gyro switch only has 2 positions, not three :(
+We will use it as mode switch none the less between, MANUAL (or ATT) and NAV
+
+So it is a real 6CH USB joystick that just looks like a RC transmitter
+
+If you want to fly your UAS via the joystick add thid to your session:
+
+ /home/username/paparazzi/sw/ground_segment/joystick/input2ivy  -d 0 -ac yourarfamename hobbyking_usb_rc_6ch_rc_tx_joy_mode_2.xml
+
+Where -d 0 must be -d 1 if you have a laptop with accelometer installed
+
+The basis of steering is the standard signs of aerospace convention
