Futaba to PC trainer cable?

Feb 09, 2004 2 Replies

Hi all, After many years away I'm returning to the R/C hobby. I'm looking for a patch cable to plug my Futaba transmitter (round plug) into my PC (serial or usb?) to get used to the controls again on a simulator before heading out into the wild. I have seen transmitter-to-transmitter cables, but can't find a transmitter-to-pc cable. Can anyone tell me where to find one?

Hi Steve,

If you consider to use the free FMS-flight simulator, read this below to choose what interface you will need depending (a.o.) on the operating system of your pc. Anyway, you will have to connect the PPM-OUT signal and the ground of your radio to whatever interface needed for your PC for whatever simulator. Succes, Olivier
