Default TX-USB PC Cable

I am looking for anyone who knows where to find the cable to conenct my Helimax Axe Cp controller to the USB port on my computer
I am i am tired of replacing parts so i got a flight sim so i can learn to fly on there without the cost of parts

If anyone knows which connector the Helimax controller uses and which cable to get, i would greatly appreciate
your input.


Thanks

Well, I bought one, but I cannot get the plug jammed on to the TX - it fits my 7CHP fine,but a bit snug. But I wasn't about to break my Axe TX trying to get it jammed on. Also, I have heard the built in mixing doesn't work well with the sims.

yea i noticed on the back of the contol unit that the plug holes were kinda blocked, it looks like they didnt get the plastic out of then holes
all the way. I was going to try and clean those up. The plug looks like one for a futaba controller, is it ?

Where did you buy yours ?
I heard the same about the built in mixing, but i figure it at least will get me used to the control of the Heli better and i wont be replacing parts everytime i try
to fly this thing

Actually, I bought the GWS one and did not like the way it was set up in Vista. I had bought a HiTec one at my LHS for my old round Futaba. The round Futaba pigtail was connected via al 2 pole 1/8" plug. I cut the square plug off the GWS system and soldered a plug on - plugs right into the HiTec adapter and works great. BTW, I cannot find a HiTec square adapter (probably because they still use the old round format).
