As topics states, i got trouble with using my Futaba Skysport 6h. Model nr Fp.t6vh radio with fms og realflight. I use a usb cable, to connect.
I think it is this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/RC-Flight-Simulator-USB-Interface-Realflight-FMS-Cable_W0QQitemZ170097958851QQihZ007QQcategoryZ1916 4QQcmdZViewItem

The problem is, When i use the trothel stick, both channel 3 and 4 are affected. Both are actually moving? So this results in this: when i give throttle the plane also turnes? I have tried this i realflight and pushed 2 to get the radio , showing, and i saw that when i pulled the stick all the way to the top, it was off to the right, when i had it in the bottom, it was slight to the left. Same thing happend in FMS. So is there a problem with the radio settings? There are many setting under the sticks on the radio like: D\R - TH.TV - REVO MIX - Pitch curves, etc? Could one off theese setting be the source ? Please help

This is the mapping, how are you connecting the radio to the computer?

Go into the properties of the controler and remap what functions do what. If your using propo the icon for me is in the control panel.

Here is a link to guide you threw it if you havnt been here?

BowerR,

You are only confusing the fellow!

First of all, inter-channel talk is called "mixing", not "mapping".

Second, he's using a simple USB cable, which doesn't need PPJoy/SmartPropo and doesn't offer re-mapping capability (only interfaces from MileHighWings.com offer remapping, implemented in the interface hardware).

What he should do is to read the manual of his transmitter and disable all transmitter mixes! Skysport 6H is a helicopter radio, thus, mixes are present by default. I'm not sure if the TX can be switched to an AIRCRAFT mode, but even with heli program, switching to 90 degree swashplate and disabling Throttle-to-Rudder mix will remove (most of) the mixes.

Good luck,
Boris
