# Welcome

**Magic-Box** is a portable solution developed by the **SilverFoxRc** team that bridges the gap between traditional USB-based flight controllers (like HOTAS) and the radio systems used by remote-controlled (RC) aircraft.

Whether you’re an experienced RC pilot or new to the hobby, Magic-Box brings a full-scale stick-and-rudder flying experience to your models—no more relying on small gimbals and switches that feel more like a gamepad than an actual cockpit.

## Why Magic-Box?

* **Realistic Controls**\
  Use your favorite HOTAS, rudder pedals, or throttle quadrant to achieve the tactile feedback of full-scale aviation.
* **Seamless Translation**\
  Converts USB device inputs (axes, buttons, switches) into PPM or SBUS signals that your RC transmitter can understand.
* **Community-Driven**\
  Configure each device with simple YAML files, share ready-made mappings for popular hardware, and collaborate on new device support.
