As anyone who has used PPjoy will testify it is a neat piece of software developed by
Deon van der Westhuysen

PPJoy was designed for joysticks connected to the parallel port but it also supports other devices via the virtual joystick interface.

So why am I telling you this as if you have used or are using PPjoy you will know all about this?

Deon has spent months developing PPjoy and thousand of people around the globe are using it day after day.

But he has now decided to stop supporting it as for all of his hard work he has received a few postcards,a couple of small donations and thank you emails have been very few indeed.

When I first got my first rc helicopter in January 2006 I decided to download and install FMS along with PPjoy to enable my transmitter to work with the FMS flight simulator, but as I have a laptop I didn’t have the necessary port connection so I learnt to fly my rc helicopter without it.

When I heard about Deon decision to stop supporting PPjoy I emailed him and told him that even though I do not use PPjoy I thanked him for creating it, his reply was very sad to read.

So please could you do Deon a favour and at least send him a postcard of your hometown or better still a small donation just to say thank you.

Thank you very much.

Or you can just email him with a thank you letter, please do not ask him for support as he will not reply and I don’t blame him at all.
