Cheap Xbox 360 Wireless Controllers (Radio 2.4Ghz)

[bretbenz84]

Having bought a cheap controller that did not work, I discovered that they behave as if they are wired USB controllers with a simple radio in between. Thus it does not work the same way, but with simple edits and a change of the library it works like a charm. I'd like to contribute my version that works with these $20 controllers.

Change the include for xboxrecv.h to #include <XBOXUSB.h>

Change line 170 to XBOXUSB Xbox(&Usb);

Change line 242 to if (!Xbox.Xbox360Connected) {

Any further xbox function call remove the , 0 from that line. Since it's not one of four controllers (default 0) and just a single USB controller this gets it to work.

Nice find @bretbenz84 ! Would you like to open up a Pull Request to include an additional sketch with these changes? Please include information on the readme as well about this addition, which controllers it’s expected to work with as well

Yes I would absolutely love to share my version. It took me 5 hours to figure it out. I can also update the readme.
