Dear All
I have tried almost everything to make this transmitter work with a simulator (I am trying FMS and aerofly pro) but nothing at all, no signal, no possibility to calibrate, nothing. I´m using USB connector to PC and trainer port ( 3.5 mm) in the TX
Con you share how you connect this transmitter to the PC ?
Thanks so much
PD: Bruce I tried connecting with the module out, but nothing
Thanks so much

It's been awhile since i last used fms ,If your using vista you need to install a patch for FMS, have you selected PPM on the turnigy V2 ? and when in the set up options in the sim from memory it's the PIC serial interface , Try the link below they cover all the different options for set up.
Good luck

Thank you for your advise. I tried every possible configuration described in the link, but nothing. There is no way I can make the TGY 9X connect to the sims ( FMS and Aerofly). At the other end, I have a Futaba 7c and it works fine, at least with FMS.
In another forum I read that it was possible to link the TGY 9X ( probably V1?) with FMS via 3.5mm jack connectors, not USB, and with the help of SmartoPropo and PPJoy.
I really can´t believe its impossible to cmake this TX work via USB
Appreciate suggestions
Cheers,

That is odd indeed , I have a turnigy 9x which is V1 , I would have to ask Bruce if the software is similar and can try hook mine up to the simulator and see how i get on

Hi , I just hooked up My 9X imax/ Turnigy too Phoenix sim , Had it working in about 10min i just had to set up all the controls. I used the same lead that is for my Jr radio 3.5mm jack and usb into the computer . Are you using the same lead on your Futaba radio and the 9X ? . When you plug into the back of 3.5mm jack it should switch on automatically without turning the main switch on. If you get nothing I would assume it's the lead and you could try using a Jr lead as it works fine with my old 9x
Cheers

Hi Richard,
Did you disconnect the module in the 9X to use the simulator ? What are the settings in your TX ?
When I connect the 3.5mm plug, the TX turns on automatically, but thats all
Thanks a lot

Someone told me you have to use a mono-plug and not a stereo one. That makes sense if inserting the plug also turns on the radio.
I'll check next time I get to the workshop.

Didn't change anything , even left the module plugged in , The tx is in Fm-ppm mode and I didn't even change the model memory which was set for one of my planes .

Bruce, Richard, Friends
I was finally able to put to work TGY 9x V2 and FMS. Strange thing is that it worked only once with Aerofly Deluxe Pro ( though I was not able to configure rudder) , but all of a sudden calibration adjustments became very unstable (noise ?)
Thank you so much for your patience on this......any thoughts about Aerofly calibration are welcome
Cheers
David
