Where can I get one? And how do I hook it up to my pc?
Thanks,Randy

Randy,
If you don't mind pluging/unpluging your printer (or, if you have a USB printer), you can easily assemble parallel_port-to-JR_transmitter cable yourself. The simpliest parallel cable will cost you about $5 in RadioShack parts and an hour of soldering.
Use any Futaba wiring diagram (available in FMS mmanual as well as in many places on the Net, drop me a line if you can't find it) and change the connector on TX side to a mono plug. The ground wire is the central pin, and signal wire -- the outer one.

Hope this helps,
Boris (bluesky123)

you may already know this but matt clement http://www.mattclement.freeservers.com/fms/fms.html is working on a an interface for JR and may have it ready by now. He charges 21.00 shipped which is very reasonable i think. good luck

rkrig,
I've been selling these JR cables (both parallel and, even better, serial) for long time. I've had more than hundred happy customer as well as several people, who returned the cables for a refund.

Before suggesting somebody else's cables (I know, you were trying to help--no offence intended), may be it's a good idea to check the quality of those cables? The pictures at the link, you've provided, show unshielded cables--how good can they be in the noisy PC environment?

But I'm not talking about this! RCUniverse forums is not an appropriate place for advertisement (aren't we sick of all this ads?), so, I'm abstaining for advertizing either myself or anybody else. I've just tried to help a guy to find info and make cable without paying to anybody (including myself).

Sorry for starting another flame tread,
Boris

bluesky123,
No chance for an arguement here, it only took me one post to know that this is not the place for me. Happy flying.

Any more data on this cable and what computor speed ect. Thanks John

Hello,

I have done some testing on a FMS JR Cable and found that a shelded hood for the printer connector works best. I have also heard of people using unshielded cat 5 wire. I don't think that will be as good as shielded wire.

Take care

Here goes my shameless ad: my sweet wife sells interfaces, which work with FMS (or any other sim, including RealFlight) and are compatible with any Windows version, including 2000/XP.
