Bob, you may want to ask your question on the KnifeEdge site. That's where most of the computer nerds and X-Berts hang out. They may know of an alternative to the "supplied" cables.

Umm, one other thing Bob. In the requirements section of the program you'll notice that it calls for a "Compatible FM or FM-selectable transmitter" ... that would indicate that a crystal is present in the radio.



Multiplayer Requirements:

Broadband Internet connection
Computer microphone for voice chat
InterLink Elite Controller:
USB Port
Compatible FM or FM-selectable transmitter (if using the interface mode)

Note: The connectors on the InterLink Elite cord and included adapters make the InterLink Elite compatible with the trainer jack on most Futaba® and all JR®, Spektrum® and Tower Hobbies® systems. Special adapters for use with most older Futaba and Hitec® systems are available separately.
