1) Go get a gamepad Saitek X6-38U for 10 Dollar

and take it apart to remove the circuit board. Disconnect the
potentiometers from the circuit board.

2) Take an old transmitter like the Robbe Futaba F14 and dig out the
complete electronics. Leave the potentiometers with cables in their
place.

3) Use a soldering iron to connect the Potentiometers to the correct
places on the Saitek circuit board. Lead the USB cable out of the case
where the antenna used to be.
4) Calibrate the Joystick using Start/settings/control panel/Gamecontroller
If necessary recalibrate the Potentiometers from your Transmitter
manually
5) Calbrate Joystick in FMS

6) Enjoy FMS
