            Phoenix sell an Esky adaptor so i would guess you can use your 4ch tx.

                Hi

                i bought phoenix rc sim off ebay there were no leads or anything with it. It keeps saying plug in interface on the screen when its loaded, all i got was the box and a disc and instructions anyone know where i can get a lead from ??

                i have an esky honeybee FP if that helps !!

                Thanks

                  oh man, sounds to me like you got ripped off. Without the interface the CD is useless, you need to go back to the seller and ask where the interface is as they can't be bought separately.

                    The sim is useless without the lead which is set for JR systems, then you have an adapter for Futaba's/Hitec/Sanwa and Esky.....I would send it back unless he/she is going to give you the lead as they should have. Or god forbid they stipulated in very small print that no lead was present then you'll have to get in touch with Pheonix...adapters can be bought on thier own but the usb and box of tricks comes only with the sim.

                      Jeeze Ash, I'm too slow in typing .

                      G4VIN, I hope you get sorted who was the seller on Ebay ? - not saying they dupped you it might be an honest mistake. But would be interesting to know if you don't mind. Keep us informed as to how things turn out.

                        I picked up a copy of Phoenix RC last night and I love it to bits already.

                        Fantastic graphics, realistic handling and a doddle to set up - so much better than the cheap esky sim I tried last week
