Hey guys, i have no idea as to what i would need here

...my question is...if i was to use either a Hitec Optic 6 or an Eclipse 7...exactly what cables would i need to get the tx to work on the computer.

Thanks for any help.

Radio Shack Parts
276-2009 NPN 2222a Transistor (Many NPN transistors will work)
271-1126 1/2 watt 5% 10k-Ohm Resistor pack of 5
276-1547b 25 Position Male D-Subminiature Solder-type connector
276-1536 Shielded hood for DB25 connector
274-020a 6-Pin DIN male plug (For FUTABA connections)
???-???? You also need some 5 ft. wires of course
(CAT-5 would work nice - I used speaker cable!)

Stuart,

As this is in the XTR forum, it implies that XTR can be made to work with a simple FMS interface, which everyone knows is not the case as XTR requires its dedicated USB "dongle" interface to work.

when you buy reflex you say

"i have a hitec XX radio"

the shop will then give you the right lead to plug into the dongle.

if you want another lead they are only about 5-6ukp.

The lead just has an RJ11 (phone plug) on one end and the right connector for your radio on the other.

the dongle that comes with reflex and cannot be bought seperately plugs into a spare USB port.
