HI All...
I have been looking around for a sim program. Currently, I have a Futaba 6EX (PCM) Transmitter. Looking over the packages, I seem to find that the high powered ones have a controlling unit included. It seems silly to me to pay that kind of money when all I need is the controling cable (Futaba Square connector to Parallel or USB computer connector) and the software. Isn't there a reasonable package out there for your basic r/c simulation that will do that and connect to a PC running XP? Any assistance would be appreciated.

Most Transmitter-to-Computer interfaces require TX to be switched to PPM mode. Even though your TX can work in PCM mode, it also supports PPM. So, don't be scared by PPM_only interfaces.
