Default Cannot get Dx61 working with AFPD

Well this is the problem.

I have managed to install AFPD on to my Macbook this afternoon and it works fine in window and full screen mode, so on that basis i assume it works fine.

However i have plugged my Dx61 into the Dongal and tried to use it. I have tried setting it up at least 20 times using different configs and also gone through the callobration process 20 times or more. I just can not get my Dx61 to work with AFPD.

i have read that people have faulty dongals straight from the box. Has anyone been able to get the Dx61 working with AFPD??? i am considering now ordering the game commander separately (providing it comes separately) however i wanted to get used to my Dx61 before taking out my new helicopter.

all comments and help will be very much appreciated, im new to six channel flying and new to this sim as want to improve and avoid wrecking me helicopter :-)

Many Thanks
Scooter

Hi scooter, here's a photo of the cable connections required for JR/Spektrum. Do you have the usb stick adapter cable in your box (with colored wires)?
