i went to the <http://www heliguy.com/nexus/home.html> and built the interface.

i had some problems figureing out what he did and what it was to look like. i must have blown a resistor because the heat shrink was all melted aroung that area... so i figure ill just rebuild

i then was messing aroung with it and the npn transistor middle wire broke off on me. so we ran down to radio shack, but they were closed. so i took apart a little walky talky to get a transistor.

since i didn't have a buddy cord connector. i improviced, i sodered
some 1/16 peices of music wire to the ends of the cord(making sure the wire were the same on both sides) i also made a "short" useing some bent wire

i got it out sodered (sp?) it all togather for a preliminary test to see if it was working, and of corse it wasn't.

so i looked again and found that the wires where on the wrong poles. so i fixed that. now it looks just like the one on the web page

so i also checked to makes sure that the printer port is setup correctly and it is.

i then went to fms pluged the ground and the singnal in pushed the "short" in the radio turns on and it doesn't work! then the computer crashed
i really want to get this working, and really dont want to fry my comp or my futaba 8 channel so can some one melp me?
