Default I must touch Tx arial for my AFP to work !! help

This is rather strange but for my transmitter, Futaba 6 XS to work in aerofly pro, I must touch the arial with one of my hands and keep it there. The interface is recognised by AFP and graphics are fine so sim part is functioning ok. I have flown the planes by holding the arial with my feet !, funny yes but true, but I can not keep on doing this for much longer cause its tiring.

During calibration the red bars do not move, but as i hold the arial they shoot up as if I turned on the radio. It seems that something is not grounded properly. I have a skysport 4 but that doesnt work neither by holding the arial.

I have tried also bending the metal piece in the trainer cord which is suppose to make contact with the metal part of the 5 pin jack, but all in vain.

Please help !!
