Is there a quick solution to add more buttons?

Thanks phoenix, looks like that idea is a no go then! Thought it would be too easy.

I think you could use two if you were careful to not use the same key's (or combos) on two keypads for seperate commands. For instance, on one keypad you could map say "5" for bail out and on a second keypad you would bind a "6 & 5" press to open canopy. Probably help to look at this kit to get a better idea of what I'm driving at

It seems at first to be based on keyboards but I did see a you tube video where a person more or less made a button box out of keypad.......nice solution to get around buying buttons, hardware and electronics and then wiring things up.

Wait for Sokol to post a solution.

In the meantime, Touchbuddy (and a second monitor) could be a solution.

Debating whether to get a Leo Bodnar card (expensive) or have a play around with stripping down an old Logitech joystick I have (free!)and making a button box.
