Walkera Training TX and Cable, Has Anyone ever actually used this, or is it a myth?

[pointbreak]

I purchased a walkera training TX and serial port cable. It came with Picjoy, popjoy and Tru-flight simulator. I have been unsuccessful at getting it to work on 3 different computers. The error I get is "signal not found" when I run Picjoy. Has anyone ever actually used a walkera training TX and cable successfully? if so, on what program and how the heck did you set it up?

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp!

Thanx

BTW, Sluggo, you Rock!

I used USB cable from milehighwings.com for Walkera 6-ch, worked fine.
Please be aware that there are several incompatible types of Walkera transmitters, some work some don't:

Hey Boris.

Thanks for the tip. I actually got so fedup with trying to get it to work that I went out and bought a G3 sim kit. Wow! What a great tool. real practice. Might not be exactly the real thing, but it builds muscle memory for sure. I just keep using it. Trying every heli, every trick. Serious fun. And at $250CAN worth every penny.

Cheers,

Mike

Hi all from yet another newbie. I am very interested in finding out if Microsoft FS X Deluxe can be operated using my Walkera transmitter before I buy it. Any ideas?

I haven't been able to make the demo work with my Walkera transmitter, but that may be because its the demo version. Here's some software that will help you out if you want to use FMS with a Walkera TX,
