How to ride your magic carpet

Magic carpets are, you know, pretty much commonplace stuff. Everybody rides one, including Prince of Persia and the Rescue Rangers. Now the thing which has always bugged me is the question: How do you control which direction the carpet should fly?

Looks like another big mystery solved. And I didn't have to look far for the answer, too. It's all written in, I am not kidding you, the USB HID specifications. Quoting:

Magic Carpet Simulation Device

CA – Allows a device to be generally classified as one that uses the standard control of a magic carpet. This control is a bar, grasped by both hands, that controls the Yaw, Pitch and Roll of the carpet.

The bar, at which the pilot sits, may be pushed forward or pulled back to cause the carpet to dive or rise, respectively. In the zero position, the carpet is in level flight. Pushing forward on the bar causes the carpet to nose down and generates negative values. Pulling back on the bar causes the carpet to nose up and generates positive values.

Turning the bar turns the carpet. In the zero position, the carpet travels straight ahead. Pulling back on the right side turns the carpet to the right and generates positive values. Pulling back on the left side turns the carpet to the left and generates negative values. Rotating the bar rolls the carpet. In the zero position, the carpet travels level.

Rotating the bar in a clockwise direction rolls the carpet to the right and generates positive values. Rotating the bar in the counterclockwise direction rolls the carpet to the left and generates negative values.

Now fortunately HelenOS will soon get USB HID support. So that means I can run HelenOS on my magic carpet's on board computer and still use the standard controls of the magic carpet, right? Right?
