Your helicopter is the same as the Walkera 22E. Look here:

No, you don't want the Zhen Hua controller. That was for the 4-channel Tx. If you made the cable that connects to your parallel port then you want to add an LPT1 controller of type "Radio control TX".

Thanks for the advice, I ended up finding an easy way to use the stock serial cable and an audio jack, using a program called smartpropoplus

I couldn't get the stock Eagle 50 TX to work so I have been using my 4 channel Falcon 40 instead.
How did you finally get it to work? Where did you get the line-in cable? I guess I'm just not understanding what you did. Thanks.

Nevermind, found the home page and got the info. Here's the link to [link=http://www.smartpropoplus.com/OldSpp/index.htm]SmartPropoPlus[/link].
BTW, how is the Eagle 50 flying? I got it as my first heli and it was more than what I could handle. So I packed it up and got a FP 4 channel Falcon 40. I'm getting better with the Falcon and will give the Eagle 50 another go once I think I'm ready.

Well I was going to fly it however I needed to shut off the CCPM mode since I didn't like the way it makes the helicopter handle, now it functions as a fixed pitch helicopter, however I have control over the pitch of the blade by manually changing the setting on the control knob. I wasn't able to fly it however it had a bad tail motor, I have to replace it and then tune the helicopter. I also shut off the thing that keeps the head spped constant, I have found that the helicopter is easier to control with that off. By the way the dip tab on the back for Norm/ccpm is backwards, so if you go fly it try switching it to normal mode it helps alot.
