Newbie here, fresh off my first flights and my 15-yr-old son's first flights. Have what should be a simple/easy question...

My son and I each have a Hobbyzone SuperCub RTF DSM and each of them came with the transmitter (Spektrum DX4e I think). They both have a trainer port that I believe is what you use to hookup with another controller in a master-slave type of arrangement where the teacher can take control when desired but the student can have control also.

My questions are...

Any reason our two Spektrum DX4e's won't link up this way?

Is it just a simple walkman/computer style audio cable that you use to connect them? Or is it a specialized cable that I need to get at the RC hobby shop?


I've done a wee bit of google searching and had a wee bit of success finding some posts on other forums. What Iread leads me to believe it really is just a simple "audio" style cable, the kind I might have to connect my ipod to the AUX-input on a car-radio or stereo.


GuessI'll just give it a try when I get home, but would appreciate a heads up from anyone that knows for sure....
