I'm fairly restricted on this point, I have to pack the data the way Flightgear unpacks it. I am using the same object/structure to pack the data in. I should have mentioned, the laptop sending the joystick information (when it's not working) is a 32 bit gentoo box, and the receiver of those packets running flightgear is a 64 bit gentoo box. Could this have something to do with byte order?
