I'm new to RC flying and I'm downloading FMS right now on my 56k modem. I have a fast computer with good video card but I dont have a Joystick. Does FMS work on Windows XP?

FMS works just fine in XP.
> I dont have a Joystick
You mean that your computer doesn't have a game port?
If this is the case, you can buy:
1) Logitech RumblePad--it has a couple of sticks, just as an R/C transmitter, and hooks up to a USB port (I've bought a refurbished one for $10 off eBay)
2) Or a TX-to-USB interface cable.
Hope this helps,
Boris

If you would rather use your TX, here is a PC interface that will work from Win 95 up to XT. You can get a unit from for around $20.00:
