Three button setup for dual blade

Proffieboards

Hey all,

I’m thinking having a three button setup with a dual blade, pow aux and pow2, where the main pow makes the first blade to turn on, aux the normal fett263 but the the third button to turn on both blades.

#include "proffieboard_v2_config.h"
#define NUM_BLADES 2
#define NUM_BUTTONS 3
#define VOLUME 1000
const unsigned int maxLedsPerStrip = 144;
#define CLASH_THRESHOLD_G 1.0
#define ENABLE_AUDIO
#define ENABLE_MOTION
#define ENABLE_WS2811
#define ENABLE_SD
#endif

#ifdef CONFIG_PRESETS
Preset presets[] = {

ProffieOS8 will bring true independent control of dual blades.
There’s 3 button support in my BC prop file to do exactly what you’re saying.
Until you load that up, you’ll need to do it with blade styles that mimic the behavior.

is this wiring correct though, I would think yes but setup shows aux2 but that is just power array.

Not sure what you mean by this.
Using the Button3 pad for Aux2 is correct in the diagram and in the config above.
