Thread: Dongle

I just want to know, do you guys leave the dongle plugged in all the time even when you're not flying and just browsing the net?
Or do you only plug the dongle in when you're going to fly?

mine is permanently plugged in to a rear usb

Permanently plugged in here behind the computer somewhere with a SimStick. My machine is a Mac and I Bootcamp into Windows to use the simulator, and having the dongle in doesn't bother the Mac either.

always leave mine plugged in too

Permanently plugged in with a simstick and all contained in a little drawstring bag so no cables dangling all over the place

Unplug mine simply because of my 3 young kids, it would get pulled out never to be seen again

mine is plugged in until i have to test simsticks then it is repeatedly plugged in and removed maybe 100 times and hour... and it makes phoenix crash every 3 / 4 goes... and that is a PITA.

Watch the TX wire where it leaves the dongle box it is prone to snap just there right on the edge of the grommet. I had to fix another one last night..

Keep mine plugged in (similar setup to Steve )
