T4VF Skysport calibrates but not active - Parallel T4VF not active in software

[Joshua]

With the store bought cable it will "see" the transmitter just fine.

I can calibrate all four channels using Win98 parallel port.

I just can't figure out why in the world I can't control the plane with it !

The only thing that will work is the keyboard! How do I turn "ON" the transmitter

If you can calibrate the interface in FMS, there should not be any reason why it will not work. When you say you can calibrate, I assume you mean that the blue bars move up and down.

Have you set the mappings correct?



Move the throttle, and see which bar moves up and down. In the Throttle text box, enter the bar number. Repeat this for all channels.

Planes use Throttle, Aileron, Elevator and Rudder.
Hellies use Tail, Nick, Roll and Pitch.

Fly the plane, and if a channel is working the wrong way round, click the INV checkbox. This will reverse the control.
