just bought a heli and need some help

Postby matsm » Sat Sep 15, 2007 3:39 pm

Just bought my first heli :D and want to train a bit before i start flying for real.

Bought the Twister Bell Medevac chopper. It included a cable to connect the stick to the PC. I can se the stick in the Device Manager but nothing happens in the FMS when I try to use the stick. tried different setting but nothing help.
The stick is from Model Enginers and a Awesome R/C Product. and its a FM 35MHZ. don't know if that has anything to do with it.
So can anyone help me to get it to work?

I'm guessing "the stick" means the transmitter (but hasn't it got 2 sticks on it ?).

Make sure you can calibrate it as a joystick in Games Controllers and make it the first on the list of controllers.

Then try it in FMS.....you'll need to calibrate it in there too before it will do anything.
