That Cheap "FMS" Simulator
 

I just downloaded that for the heck of it. Do they make any special cords to use with a TX instead of the keyboard or a Joystick?

I've got a USB to Futaba Square cord that works with it. I picked it up off Ebay for around $40. There is some instructions on making a cord, but for the life of me I can't remember where I saw them.

http://milehighwings.com - usb and pic serial cables, good also for Blade CP/CX and Walkera Tx's

or

If you are pc literate (not a genius, but not complete dummy), make yourself a $2 cable for and use this free [link=http://www.geocities.com/shaul_ei/SmartPropoPlus.html]SmartPropo[/link] software.

I've used smartpropo.. it works great

It's just a simple audio cable to feed the PPM signal to your PC's mic input

I have used the one that HiTec sells. It works fine. It also works with Clearview.

You can also search for USB cables on www.rc-devices.com when i buy one they send it to me, in the same week.

i used a cable and driver that came with an old ripmax simulator with my jr radio and it also works with clearview and most games that require a joystick.

Great setup help for those 2 cables. To go to the insructions, click on the cable you use. (Don't forget to download the driver)

Am thinking about adding a Falcon 40 to my collection. It says it's xmitter comes with a cable for pc attachment.
Anyone know if it will work with Fms? Downloaded it today It's buggy but alot of fun for free. How do you upload thumbnail photos
to forum posts?

You don't get the functionality when you use the FAST REPLY window that is at the bottom of each forum page. However, if you notice in the top right hand corner of each post there is a "Reply" button. Click on it and it'll open a reply window that will have the attachment function. Look in the lower left of that screen for the button.

It says, "click here to upload images and files !"

When you click it pops up a browser window. It'll let you browse to the picture on your HD.

It's usually best to edit your pictures to be 72ppi and under 9-10" in size. That way they'll look as sharp as most monitors are, and large enough to show decent detail. Also, they don't take forever for dialup users.
