Hey all, Where can I get the cheapest interface for the VG-6000?
Hopefully with a power source(or something like that), so that I can use power from an adapter or something, instead of using my Tx battery?

BTW, I would be using it for FMS.




Thanks,

Have a look on my webpage (http://myweb.absa.co.za/eric.brouwer/interface.htm) for some of the interface venders. Between them, there should be one that can help you.

It is a gameport interface. They also have serial and USB. Yes they are XP compatible.
Mine has it's own power source, so I dont have to use my Tx battery.
I give you a link later...

You have to use some strategy when bidding.
I got into quite the battle at the end.

Yes . . seems like the $40 non-auction price is a little high, perhaps to make up for the below-cost auction sales.
$40 for a game port interface??? :confused:

For this much money, you can buy a high end USB interface with internal calibration and arbitrary channel mapping (stored in a non-volatile memory inside the interface) from MileHighWings.com...
