Cliff,
PRE-Flight is no longer free--they've disabled support for TX interfaces in their latest version. To control the sim with your transmitter, you have to buy the "full" version.

Yup I just discovered this the other day - luckily for me I still have the install file for V1.95 where multi-axis was possible so I'm just going to wind back from 2.x but it's a bit of a shame they have had to do this to try and cover development costs. As I told the author a better business model would have been to continue to supply the sim for free but then charge people for the "must have" models (like a Raptor or a Corona in the heli side of things).
