will the "joystick" have more than 4 channels???
 

Hello i bought the aerofly pro and i'd like to know if could use my extra channels on my transmitter when it's with an universal interface (the computer names it a joystick)?????

does anyone have the expansion pack vol 1????

how is the x cell fury??

cheers...

Greetings,
 

You can use all the channels on your transmitter, if you use your transmitter. The "joystick" refers to the game commander that came with the program, or your computer's joystick.

I don't recognize the term "universal interface."

Regards.

christophemalpa,

An analog interface, which uses PC's game port, is limited to only 4 proportional channels. This is a limitation of the game port itself, which only has 4 ADCs.

USB joysticks don't have such a limitation, they may implement as many proportional channels as needed. Take a look at MiliHighWings USB interface:
www.milehighwings.com
It offers up to 7 proportional channels and can be used with AeroFLY Pro as a secondary interface. I've used this interface with AFP and I was able to assign all 7 channels to different controls (AeroFLY Pro is much more flexible than RealFlight in this aspect).


Mike,
"Universal interface" isn't a strict term or a trade name of any particular TX-to-PC interface. One may call so an interface, which works with different simulators, thus emphasizing the fact that this is not a propriatory interface like FMS-only cables.


Keep 'em flying,
