Thanks Dan orderd the cable from your link going to give NeXt a try.

Thanks.

[Dan22]

This is the one I have, to my surprise it came with some 'copy' sims pre loaded which I don't use. I just use it for the cable.

I'm still running version 4, I'm scared to push the update button now as version 4 works fine.

I wouldn't touch that button. I shall be returning to v4 for the time being. V5 is utterly dreadful and I cannot fathom how they have managed ton take such a huge step backwards.

Can see a mass exodus to RF happening by the sound of things.

I can't make it Dan, I'm out this morn but gonna fly at Hook later as tomorrow looks pants.

In seriousness there is still a ways to go till the sim runs as well as V4. At least on 5.0c I can fly backwards without the heli diving into the deck as there was some weird tail issue on 5.0a. They need to bring back the original tuning functions from 4 then maybe you'd be able to get the models flying well but at the end of the day it's one thing to tune a model to your preference and totally another to tune it so it actually flies.

I honestly can't understand why companies release product to the public before they are fit for purpose. It's bad for sales and reputation. I just don't get ?

I will stick with v4 as I don't feel the need to rush out and get RF

But .....eeerm .......I said that about Facebook

It definitely wasn't anywhere near ready for release. It's still in beta stage at best.

I think it was probably rushed out due to a fear of a mass exodus to RF7. More than a little ironic, seeing as its premature release may well push everyone to RF7.
