I just got a hummingbird helicopter. ive never flown any kind of rc anything, on top of that i dont know jack about computers. im trying to use this simulator thing, and i got the helicopter to come up on screen but the controller doenst control it. im pretty sure i plugged it in the right spot on the tower, it was the only place it would fit. i went to the "controls" tab on the simulator screen and clicked on "analog control" and this is the list that comes up( No interface, joystick interface, parrallel/serial 32bit, parrallel/serial 16bit, serialPIC interface) i clcked on each one and still nothing. it came with an elite6 controller. thanks in advance for any help.
