RE: RealFlight G3.5 InterLink Plus Controller
ORIGINAL: Kemo ORIGINAL: masonman Man that sucks. I was hopeing to get the controler only. But that what i figured would happen. have to rebuy the hole game I was afraid of this too. My buddy gave me the game after his radio thumb stick broke off. Cant buy a new radio for the thing, or use your own from what I've read... so I've got a $200 frisbee. Yes, you still can use your own radio. Just like you could when the Interlink worked. Plug your own radio into the Interlink and the Interlink into the pc. Just like before. And they're going to replace or fix every broken Interlink you send in for repair. And since it was a free gift, you've got a frisbee that cost you zip, that can be used as is, or sent in for repair, to become a $200 RC flight sim that cost you nothing or cost just shipping. |
RE: RealFlight G3.5 InterLink Plus Controller
I have not had any problem with sending it back for repair, so I would just send it back. You could also find a used TX and use the parts to repair the stick. You can also use another TX, the cables are included it the G3 box. Plenty of options before it becomes a frisbee. I just like using the InterLink I would rather wear out the game controller than a good TX.

Geeze! [:@]
I was thinking of purchasing RealFlight G3.5, but with all these quality control problems with the controller arms I am now wavering! Has anyone managed to purchase Phoenix with a controller? What is the quality of that controller? From my previous experience I felt that the Futaba controller that came with RealFlight was the best, but if many people are having issues with it then the quality has gotten weak, like it seems many Chinese toy related items have. Thanks. |
RE: RealFlight G3.5 InterLink Plus Controller
I still think the G 3.5 has the better controller of the SIMs. I still recommend the G3.5 (or AeroFly PRO). I would hope by now that the plastic was improved. I also have the G2 controlled and it never had a problem.

RE: RealFlight G3.5 InterLink Plus Controller
You know, sometimes things are not as bad as they seem.
Last time I was in one LHS I asked them how often they had to replace the Interlink controller on their G3.5 demo setup. They said in the last year, once when someone ripped the cable out of the top of it. And that sucker sees some heavy use. And heavy handed dolts. How could anyone tear that cable out.... and how would it come about. Amazing......... |

HE burned it into a puddle ;) He should have burned the CD with it. Because when he destroyed the controller, he made the CD worthless too. And what you've got is not worth $200, it's worth ZIP. It's not a $200 frisbee. You've got a $0.00 frisbee thanks to your friend. And how the controller stood up to his "normal useage" certainly doesn't cast any doubts on anything about the unit. |
RE: RealFlight G3.5 InterLink Plus Controller
I'll just go with the sound card method to get it to work.
G3.5 doesn't seem to be asking for any particular radio... it boots up pretty well. Heck, the whole reason he burned it up is because at the time they told him they wouldn't repair it unless he paid at least $30-40 something with odd change. |

Hi All
Needing some help. I can't install the Realflight G3 Expantion pack 1 on Vista. Everytime I try and run the setup file I get a Vista error. The error process is APPCRASH. Does anybody have any advice. |
RE: RealFlight G3.5 InterLink Plus Controller
Well waddya know? My Interlink Plus controller broke too. It wasn't like it was being maltreated.
Instead of gluing the broken pin back on, a small metal screw was put in its place and it's now as good as new. I don't see how Futaba could be so proud of this rather substandard product. I do hope they improve it and soon. |
