Redwings

I have had AFDP for some time but have not used it for about a year. I plugged in the USB cable in and it was not recognized. I also reloaded the software and ran the patches and nothing works. I know the USB port works fine because when I plug in other devices they respond . I am thinking maybe the cable is bad and if I need a new one how would I go about getting one?

Hi redwings, pls do the following:

1) Pls plug in the usb cable into a usb port. Then go to Start->Control panel->Game controllers, and tell me what is displayed in the box
2) Pls post a photo of the usb cable you have

Thanks

Redwings

Nothing shows up in the box.

Hey, you're most welcomed. Since you're using a Futaba radio, you could request for a "new style" usb interface cable that works great with Futaba

Mike,

I have the same cable as redwings and it wasn't working anymore. I tought is was defective and since I had it for 4 years, I didn't expect to get a free replacement. I bought another complete second hand AFPD with a newer type of cable (rigid casing in lieu of heat shrink) from my local hobbyshop. Now I am wondering if I should have look at this thread before... :-(

Is the original USB link not compatible with the latest windows update ? I don't have Vista.

I still had to replaced the connector on the radio end to make it work on my Spektrum and JR TX.

Thanks

Xavier
