== Update Raspian == | |||
Use the below commands to update your Raspberry Pi: | |||
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash"> | |||
sudo apt-get update | |||
sudo apt-get full-upgrade | |||
</syntaxhighlight> | |||
Do not use the below update command unless you know how and why to use it. This command will install experimental software that has a good chance of breaking your operating system. It is like flying into a thunder storm cloud. | |||
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash"> | |||
sudo rpi-update (DO NOT USE) | |||
</syntaxhighlight> | |||

You will find that controlling your [[aircraft]], with the official Raspberry Pi keyboard and mouse, too be rather difficult. A [[Input device|joystick]] will solve this problem. The Logitech Extreme 3D PRO is plug and play, for the most part, with [[FlightGear]]. Most modern joysticks should also work. There is a dialog box to assign common joystick controls, in FlightGear. Controls are also properties, however that is for later. This joystick dialog box is found in the top menu bar under 'Files'. Next you will find 'Joystick Configuration' to click on and that will bring up the desired dialog box. | You will find that controlling your [[aircraft]], with the official Raspberry Pi keyboard and mouse, too be rather difficult.
