Default RE: Training on the sim

ORIGINAL: savagemanrc

I'm still trying to get my sim to work. It's an FMS. I don't have any control of the plane at all. It's like there aren't any input from the transmitter. Not sure yet what's wrong and would like to get it going to practice.
I had the same initial problem. I use a USB cable to my Tx. Using the "Controls" menu, select "Analog control" Next, in the list, select the bottom selection "Serial PIC". With that highlighted, select "Resources". Under "Port" select COM3. Click "OK"

That done, assuming you are using a USB cable, you should be able to go to the "Mapping/Calibration" section. You *should* be able to move your Tx sticks and see the bars move up and down. Mind you, I bought the least expensive USB cable so my transmitter MUST be turned on for it to work. I have a Hitec Laser 6 and it works great set up as above.

Hope this helps!
