The batteries are simply not suited for extended simulator time. The one thing I will say is it didn't work as well I hoped. I made a thread about it if you want to read the whole thing. I got my DX6e with the wireless dongle today and tried it out.
#SPEKTRUM DX6I AND LIFTOFF SIMULATOR HOW TO#
I taught myself how to fly a drone with the Liftoff simulator and the Ikarus USB transmitter (which I think has since been discontinued), and then went over to the Spektrum USB dongle when I got my DX6. This USB dongle works with Aerofly, Realflight, Liftoff, Velocidrone, and a few other drone sims.ĭEFINITELY recommend the use of a simulator to keep yourself in practice. Once it was bound, it was fine, got great control, but too close and it wouldn't bind up) (And yes, that 3-4 feet distance IS critical my dongle would NOT bind up if I had the transmitter too close to the dongle. Now, if you're still on the Sim profile on your radio, turn it off, step back about 3-4 feet from the computer, hold the bind button, and turn the transmitter back on. This will put the dongle into bind mode and start it flashing. There's a button on the side of the dongle press and hold it while inserting it into a USB slot. When you're all done, take the dongle out. You don't need to modify any further settings beyond that, like trim or anything that'll all be done through the simulator settings. $15 USD right now, before shipping) and it works with most Spektrum DX radios (I've gotten it to work with a DX6, DX6i, DX8, DX9, and a DXi12 I'm sure others will work, but those are the only ones I've tested it on).Ĭreate a profile in the radio marked as something like "Sim" or "Computer" or something. I went with the OrangeRX USB wireless dongle.įirst, it was relatively cheap to get this (Hobbyking has it for approx. There are a couple of solutions to get a Spektrum transmitter to sync up to the computer. I honestly know nothing about RC planes at this point, but this is some information I found recently that might help you. Then when it starts to get nice out again I will join a local RC club and look into getting a BNF type trainer plane and see how that goes. But now I have decided to use a simulator, get a decent transmitter and use that for the winter. My original idea was to just get a ready to fly plane like the carbon cub with auto land all that. I can let you know how it works when I get it. I will probably order the transmitter and dongle today and should have it in a week. I found a few cable versions that I think will work but they cost about as much as the wireless one so might as well just get that one. Says it works with most simulators except pheonix for some reason.

For the DX series Spektrum actually makes a wireless usb dongle to work with simulators.
I didn't think this was right so I googled it and I was correct. He said the cables you have to get with the software, there is no way he can just get them and he doesn't carry them either. I called a local shop to see if they sell them and the cable to connect it my computer. So now I am looking into getting an actual transmitter to use with it, the DX6 is the one I am thinking of getting. Works ok with RC7 because it lets you do more with customizing the controllers.

I have RC7 and Realflight 8, currently using an xbox controller on my pc to fly with. I have been researching the same thing today.
