I choose this Interface cable for my Futaba 6EX with RC Simulator.
Works fine and I can pratice out of the field

It shipped right away but took some time to reach me since it shipped from Canada.

I plugged it into my computer (running Vista Ultimate 32 bit) -- it found drivers automatically and showed up in my game controllers. I couldn't get it to respond to the radio (Futaba 7C) for a while, I finally realized that the plug (in the trainer port on the back of the radio) wasn't making a good connection. I wiggled it a bunch and got it working. It took some messing around with the calibration to get everything working right, but after that it worked great! I have it up and running with (ahem) the Dongle Emulator V3.3 for RealFlight G4.5.

Pros:
-plug&play
-good length cord
-price!

Cons:
-trainer port plug doesn't fit very well
-had to calibrate a couple times to get everything working right

Justo lo que necesitaba para practicar antes de volar mis aviones y asi poder corregir los problemas antes de estrellarlos

Gets the job done (I use it to connect my RC transmitter to my computer and to interface with X-plane). Its a little fragile, but it does the job.

Great product Made my Futaba T7c plug and play with Clearview flight simulator.I am giving it a 5 stars.

Fast shipping, cable works great with Windows Vista and ClearView simulator. No probems, just plug it in and use, no drivers to install.

Have fun,

Best way to actually practice before going out there and have crash damage.
Practice at home and take your RC only after you feel comfortable to fly it.

This adapter cable works with my Futaba 9CH and all of the simulators that I have tried. it shows up in Windows as a PPM joystick, and is recognized by all programs that use a joystick interface.

The electrical connection is a bit loose and sometimes if you jiggle the cord the signals to the computer get jumpy. This is annoying when your plane or helicopter moves randomly in the simulator.

Not sure if all of the GWS cables are like that or just this one. It could be a problem with the design of the Futaba square connector.

Otherwise I am very happy, but I wish it was more stable.

I bought this cable to connect my Futaba to practice prior to flying my first RC. It does not work at all. The connector on the Futaba side is very cheap looking and poorly manufactured. I don't know if the manufacturing quality is the problem or that it won't work with Vista but this product is trash.

I'm new to RC airplane models so I tried FMS before my first real flight. It was the right thing to do. For 2 days I always crashed my virtual plane. After that I was able to fly the plane real nice. Now I'm going to try the real thing.
