Hi Bob, I have not tested the RF controller with AFPD or AF5. However, to get the most out of AFPD or AF5, I would strongly recommend that you get the usb interface version which you can use with a programmable Tx and use the dual/triple rates as well as program mixes. This will definitely enhance the experience of using aerofly, while giving you a good feel of using your own Tx in the flying field.
