Cheapest way of connecting my Futaba 6EXA to my pc?

[saitrix]

Hi,

I am wondering is there a way to connecting my Futaba 6EXA to my pc to work on multiple simulators? I am using Windows XP by the way.

This might not work for your specific computer, so I'm not making any promises. However, it did work for me and is published on the internet.

Go to aeromicro.com and order a parallel port simulator cable for $8.95, then a Futaba adapter for like $3. Then, download a program called PPJOY (just google it). Follow the instructions to set it up, or if you have problems pm me. Now windows xp thinks that your Futaba is a gameport joystick, and fms works with it, so does Flight Simulator 2004 and anything that uses a joystick or joystick interface.

BTW: You're using a round six-pin connector port, right?

When you buy the sim you get the interface cable you need for your type of radio.

Got the cable along with a CD today and it works great. Thanks!!
