Ernie, I agree with you as far as an upgrade for G2. But, Ryan Douglas, software developer for KnifeEdge Software, stated that for $50 there was an upgrade available for G3/G4/G5 owners ... if anyone should know their product line it would be the guy who develops it. I've only been able to find this $50 upgrade for owners of G4 and above. So, is Ryan misinformed or is the ad for RealFlight 6.5 wrong? That's all I was aking.
Ryan has it correct.
Your G3.x Interlink WILL work just fine with G6.x, you merely will not have the two additional buttons.
Ryan also confirmed this seperately...
I'm using my old G3 controller to run a second copy of G6 for my family room.

"It's not for sale on our site, but you can find more info on the official RealFlight website. Click here! If you can't find the upgrade at your local hobby shop, it is available online at sites like Tower Hobbies.
A couple things worth noting:
As jeffpn said, the RF6 upgrade will work with your G3 InterLink, despite what the page above says. (The InterLink Elite is a superior controller to the InterLink Plus that shipped with G3, however, so you might consider just getting the full version of RF6. But that is not required.)
If all you can find is an upgrade to 6.0, don't worry. You can install that, then update online to 6.5 for free!
So just purchase the $50.00 upgrade and install away.
It will ask for the Interlink Serial number, so be sure you can read it on your controller or get it from a G3 diagnostic dump.
