Default RE: RC Flight Simulator Comparison Chart...


ORIGINAL: Roguedog

I purchased a 2 usb adatpers for my futaba radios for $4.99ea. off ebay. They were located in hong kong. Took 8 days to get them to Southern California.

Each came with the FMS software. Thing works great for what it is. Cool thing is that it came with three adatpers. A round and square Futaba trainer jack style and a mono jack style for JR. All three plug into the usb device which configured itself in Windows Xp when I plugged in in.

I was going to try FMS using the audio "line in" input with SmartPropo Plus, PPjoy and the expensive trainer cord jack. With this setup it was plug n play and simple. Had to do the usual calibration stuff. Works with my Futaba 9C and my Futaba T5uap. Here's the link [link=http://stores.ebay.com/CyberPort888]Cyberport888[/link] for the Adapters.

Here's the link for the SmartPropo info[link=http://www.smartpropoplus.com/BlueAndGrey/default.asp]Smartpropo Plus[/link] in case anyone wants to see thier method.
