Step 2: Soldering and Wiring As Per Circuit Diagram

Once the layout was finalized, I started soldering the connections. All joystick X and Y pins were connected to ADC1 pins of ESP32, because ADC1 works reliably with ESP-NOW Joysticks provide analog output, which allows smooth proportional control All push buttons were connected to digital GPIO pins and configured with INPUT_PULLUP Push buttons give digital output, so they are either ON or OFF I carefully soldered each wire as per the pinout and circuit diagram. Good solder joints are important here, because loose connections can cause random input issues.
