R/CUSB-Interface for flight simulators

USB-Interface II and USB-Interface III

• learn and train model flying without the danger of a crash, independent on weather daytime or your flight instructor

• works with nearly all R/C transmitters (Graupner, Futaba, Multiplex, Hitec, Walkera, .)

• works with nearly all R/C receivers (Graupner, Futaba, Multiplex and compatible)

• runs with most simulators (FMS, Realflight G2, Piccofly, Easyfly, Aerofly, games, .)

• no hand-soldered cheap schlock but machine-made goods of quality

• simple installation, no driver needed

• axis and buttons are programmable

• future-proof due to updateable software, programmable with self-made software, SDK available

Overview

USB-Interface II

USB-Interface II with Fu6sq transmitter cord

Technical data USB-Interface II

The RC-USB-Interface has some enhancements compared to the Gameport Interface:

• It can be used by modern notebooks equipped without gameport.

• supports USB 1.1, USB 2.0, Hot-Plugging and is powered by USB

• works with all transmitters: Though easily exchangeable transmitter cords, you can use one USB-Interface for different transmitters

• Up to 9 RC channels are transmitted to the PC. Consequently, you can also control flaps, retractable landing gear, . in suited simultators with the R/C transmitter.

• channel assignment: R/C channel 1 to 7 -> joystick axis 1 to 8, R/C channel 5 to 9 -> button 1 to 8

• The small tremble of the model rudders (due to many analog-digital convertions:PPMA -> µcontroller AD -> RC-unit DA -> sound card AD -> simulator) is reduced by the completly digital working RC-USB-Interface (PPM A -> µcontroller AD -> USB client D -> USB host D -> simulator).

• fast and precise digitalization with 256 steps

• flashing control LED

• The USB-Interface II is programmable: Assignment of axis and buttons, reaction of buttons can be reprogrammed quickly and easily.

• since Okt. 2006 updatable firmware: The Interface is prepared to understand future transmission modes of new transmitters. (look for firmware updates in the Forum, e.g. Walkera PCM WK-0701, 3000 steps resolution, .)

Compatibility

After having installed the HID-driver (HID-driver, Windows included), the USB Interface is instantly ready for operation on Win98 SE, WinME, Win2000, WinXP (instruction manualusb-interface_en.pdf [210kB]), LINUX, Mac OS X (Screenshots osx.pdf [280kB]), . (in general: all O/S that support HID USB joysticks). It has a 2m cable and works with nearly all R/C transmitters equipped with a buddy box.

The USB Interface works with most R/C simulators that can be controlled by a normal joystick:

It doesn't work with Reflex, Reflex XTR or True-Flight.

Technical data USB-Interface II with fixed receiver cord

Same data like USB-Interface II plus:

• It can be connected with an R/C receiver. So a transmitter without buddy box or PPM signal can be made suitable for simulators. The USB-Interface supplys the receiver with power. It reads up to 4 R/C channels from the receiver.

• Transmission up to 4 signals from the receiver

• All transmitter cords to connect it with a R/C transmitter are usable

RC USB-Interface III

USB-Interface III with JR3.5 receiver cord

Technical data RC USB-Interface III

RC USB-Interface II has the following enhancements compared to its predecessor:

• It can be connected with an R/C receiver. So a transmitter without buddy box or PPM signal can be made suitable for simulators. The USB-Interface supplys the receiver with power. It reads up to 7 R/C channels from the receiver.

• Optionally, a transmitter cord can be connected with the exchangeable receiver cord. The USB-Interface III is used with the R/C transmitter just like USB-Interface II. The source of the signal is detected automatically.

• It has a 16 pin connector and its firmware is updatable. So it can be used as generic device for monitoring, sensor measurement, controlling, as USB dongle, migrating applications to USB, PPM analyzer, training, prototyping, ..

• The Software Development Kit - USB-Interface III SDK is offered for free. It supports the development of new applications. Examples can be found in the Forum, e.g. PPM Generator (controlling a model via PC)

Programming tool for R/C USB-Interface

Transmitter Cords

The USB-Interface hard- and software is designed to work with all transmitters. The Interface is equipped with a connector for transmitter cords fitting your individual buddy box. More information about buddy box pin assignment: buddy boxes

Receiver Cords

The USB-Interface 3 is connected with the servo connectors of R/C receivers or a transmitter cord via these receiver cords. Special pin assignments are possible.

Receiver Adapter

Receiver Adapter with Graupner/JR servo connectors

Equipped with the Receiver Adapter you don't need a buddy box connector on your R/C transmitter to use the USB Interface. The Receiver Adapter is connected with the R/C receiver. It reads out the individual servo positions and provides the PPM signal for the USB Interface 2.

• uses up to 7 servo channels

• operates with all R/C receivers, that support popular servos from Graupner/JR, Futaba or Multiplex

• can be used in wireless master/slave trainer system in principle

JR X3810The JR X3810 is realy 3 radios in 1With its extensive list of specific software features for airplane, helicopter, and gliders, it's a radio that can handle your entire fleet of models and any you may be thinking of adding to it.The X-3810 was also designed with the notion that modellers would rather spend more of their time flying instead of programming their radio. As a result the X3810/XP8103 is loaded with sophisticated features that not only enhance your flying experience but simplify it as well.Whether your just getting into radio control or deep into it already, the JR X-3810 is one radio you will never outgrow. Please note that you need to specify Mode 1 or Mode 2. The TX is not Mode changeable because of the 3+1 digital trim technology.Look at the X-3810/XP8103 as an investment in your modelling future.3+1 Digital TrimsJR's 3+1 Digital Trim arrangement utilizes Advanced Digital Trims on the roll, pitch, and yaw channels and a mechanical trim lever on the throttle channel - the setup most preferred by modelers we spoke to.Auto Trim MemoryMoving the digital trim switches automatically stores the new trim position in memory for that model. This allows switching between model set ups without having to reset trim position each time and prevents accidental displacement of trim position when the radio is off.Adjustable Trim StepsThis allows servo adjustment of 1 to 10 steps per 'click' of the digital trim switches for fine or coarse adjustments of the trim position.Adjustable Trim Position TonesTrim position and direction of movement is audibly indicated with 'beeps' of varying frequency and tone whenever a digital trim switch is moved.
