Default Buddy Port in Spektrum DX6?

I was all set to buy the DX6, but then I realized I didn't know if it had a trainer port. I need one to be able to interface with my joystick (MS Sidewinder Force Feedback), so that I can fly with that and not the sticks. Does anyone know if it has one? I didn't see anything about it on Spektrum's website.

Thanks,

It has a "trainer port" for linking to another DX6, a DX7 or a JR transmitter. It will not support a MS FF Joystick. At present I know of no RC transmitter that will support such a configuration.

It will by using a micro to read the joystick and spoof the transmitter.
