It's stupid to pay .40 for an interface that costs just ŭ.00 to build.
If you want something ready-made, check out:

It[/url] costs less (ำ.00 including shipping), and it plugs into the joystick port. It will work with ALL flight sims out there, even non-RC sims. It will let you use the same controller and interface for FMS, Realflight, Cockpit MAster, even Microsoft Flight sim and other non-Rc games.
Another BIG bonus is that it works in Windows NT and Windows 2000! It just shows up as a regular joystick. (But with 4 axis, and up to three additional on/off channels)
I'm not connected with these guys, just a VERY happy customer.
