Yes, any grounded pot can be connected to EPIC USB analog inputs on the
expansion module. The FLCS RUDDER and A/B posts have pinouts that allow
switches that are part of the "module 0" namespace, but the analog
channel inputs can be used for anything - you can use remapping in the
"connector" and "device" statements to use pots connected to those
inputs for anything - they don't have to drive DirectX normal
joystick/throttle/rudder axes.
Cheers,
Mark.

Hi All !
I was thinking about the Expansion-modules FLCS, RUDDER, A, B connector
- the HOTAS Cougar uses USB, is it then possible to use those ports for
any
other input from the pit (ex. switch, rotary) ???
Fly Well
