Status: offline 		I am looking at buying just a Realflight G2 CD. I will need the transmitter interface, is there anything else I'll need? I have looked at Towerhobbies, cant I just buy a JR transmitter interface by itself somewhere? PLEASE HELP! Thanks!

Instead consider purchasing the new G2 USB update which will give you the latest genration G2 and the new USB-based interlink which is both controller and interface combined.

important note!!! Do NOT buy a used Cd that you can not get :
a) the serial #
b) a letter from the seller releasing his registration to you.

without both of these you will not be able to:
install/run the program
register
update the product
purchase certain types of updates for the product

joystick port version: $40
USB version: $60

I have the version of this cable that connects to the joystick port. Works well with my copy of G2; I've tried it with both Win98 and Win 2K.

He also sends a copy of the FMS simulator on CD. Keep it for your self or give it away to a new pilot (like I did)

Status: offline 		Thanks for the good ideas. I think I've decided to buy a new G2, or at least a complete used system, I've heard of too many bad things that can happen when you piece together used stuff....

Thanks again for everyones help!

No, RF isn't that bad!
Just stay away from VIA chipsets (too bad Intel doesn't make system logic for AMD chips) and ATI video cards and you'll have no problems installing and running G2.
