Did you run the software then plug the controller in? If you plugged the
controller in first windows sees it as a joystick and realflight does not
recognise it.

If you plugged the controller in first you need to do a system restore to a
point before the controller was plugged in.

Punctuation is your friend...

I'm going to assume this is a brand-new purchase... Read the manual..
Can you verify the USB ports on your computer actually work? Does
Windows "see" the RF controller? Does RF "see" the controller? Have
you called/e-mailed tech support?

The realflight web site has a knowledge base you can search for help.
