Help Getting Phoenix RC to recognize my Taranis X9D Plus 2019
Hello RC community,
I am relatively new to the hobby and have been looking to spend some of my Covid-19 lockdown learning how to fly. I recently got a hold of a Taranis X9D Plus 2019 radio and was hoping to get some flight time on Phoenix RC. I figured I'd give Phoenix RC a try as it's abandon ware. I have installed the program along with all of the updates to 6.0i. My controller is recognized by Windows 10 as a joystick but Phoenix RC does not. I was under the impression that the controller could interface with the simulator directly via USB but I might be mistaken. Is a special Phoenix RC dongle REQUIRED or am I missing something in my setup? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have been googling away but I haven't found anything addressing my issues. |

Actually, after a lot of searching, I found that it is possible to get PhoenixRC to work with just a regular old USB cable. There is a bit of a hack that needs to be implemented but I can confirm that it does work and have been able to use my X9D without their proprietary dongle. I'll admit that it took a bit of messing around to pair the channels I wanted but in the end I am able to get some stick experience in.

Phoenix RC Dongle
I have been trying to get the Orange DSM2/DSMX dongle to work with my DX8 Gen1. No problem binding with the dongle but Phoenix keeps telling me I don't have USB connected...... If I could just get Phoenix to recognize the dongle, I would be wireless. I guess I am just out of luck.

[edit] I found a YouTube video on it. I've got PhoenixRC running in Parallels on my Macbook now, with the Taranis. Very nice. |
