esky sim
A young flyer at our club got a esky simulator for xmas they can't seem to get it to work. They have tried on vista and windows with no luck. I understand there is a patch you can download does anyone know anything about this?

RE: esky sim
The Esky simulator is just FMS, which is actually available for free:

I would have them try to download the latest version of FMS and see if that works with their controller interface.
Before I got RealFlight, I use to just use the free FMS software with a video game controller. The only real difference is that you have to force the throttle stick down.

Exactly what kind of problem are your friends having when you say that, "it doesn't work?" Does the PC not recognize the controller? Is the ESky control box dead?

RE: esky sim
I'm not real sure I think it was getting it to recognize it. I gave him an old tx and they had it working with the fms, his parents/santa got him this esky simulator and they said it doesn't work. I think I'll let them set fms back up again and return the esky sim specially if its the same as one other has said.
