Use your RC TX on FMS flight simulator

Finally got my WFLY WFT07 transmitter working with FMS flight simulator on my Windows 10 laptop. This technique will work with any RC transmitter.

1. First download and install FMS flight simulator from here: https://modelsimulator.com/

2. Then download and install SmartPropoPlus software which allows connection of RC transmitter to sound port on pc or laptop: https://smartpropoplus.software.info...d/#downloading

3. Connect your TX training port with training cable and 1/8 inch cable to headphone/microphone jack on pc.

4. Open SmartPropoPlus and set up your TX parameters.

5. Open FMS, select Controls/Analogue Controls/Joystick Interface and calibrate sticks.
(If you get an exception error the first time opening FMS then you must go here and run a few bat files to set up the port numbers on your PC: https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=374732 )

After doing the above then your TX works with FMS. You will always have to open SmartPropoPlus first and then FMS each time you use the software as the SPP feeds the joystick positions through a Vjoy interface to FMS.

All software is free and it takes a little while to set it all up but at least you don't have to buy any joysticks and you can use your own TX. So was worth it for me anyway. I did this years ago but had to go through the process again recently as I need FMS to learn how to fly inverted.)
