Are you trying to use a generic USB cable? If so, that's your problem. You must have the USB cable (dongle) that comes with the package.

forgive me as I really know nothing about the T6EX radio... but some of the higher end radios need to be in either trainer mode or in PPM mode to work.

Yours may not have a PPM mode.. that would have been more so with the modular radios....

Hi guys
Think ive found the problem the new dongle i bought wont work in AFPD, but it works in Refex also
just read some where that flight sim dongles are not inter changeable which means my afpd disc is useless now. If anyone knows of a way round this please let me know.

Many thanks for your input guys.
Regards Dave.

That is part of the copy protection of the AF flight sim....

the serial number in the dongle is paired with the serial number in the software.


If you bought the software off of Ebay or something... without the USB cable...then sadly it is worthless....

if you lost your dongle (man that sentence just sounds wrong! )
then contact the folks at Ikarus with your serial number and they should be able to help
