Can you explain exactly how you were able to attach the PPM and get this all working? :)

My guess would be that his transmitter now works as a USB controller using the mentioned PPM USB adapter. I'm envious, tried to get V-Joy and co to work with my LP5DSM, but no luck so far...

I used this cable to hook my DX6i via the trainer port to USB. I'm running crazyflie-pc-client on a Mac and the PPM USB adapter works great with the config I linked above.
