The setup can be complicated but it depends on the transmitter.īasically with some transmitters, the data sent though the buddy cable (this tutorial will show you how to interface with a 2 wire cable such as a mono 3.5mm audio cable) is identical to the data that the receiver in the plane receives. This is a great feature supported by many transmitters. Many RC transmitters allow you to share control of a plane with a second transmitter, so an inexperienced pilot can try taking over flight without having to hand over the transmitter in the event they loose control of the plane.
This tutorial creates a game controller compatible with RC-AirSim with no configuration in the game. They each fly different and realist, so you can learn the basics of a different type of plane before you try it in real life. For less than $10 (the price fluctuates from 5 - 9 US dollars throughout the year) you can unlock all the plane models. It's very inexpensive and if you are satisfied with the trainer plane, it has an unlimited use free demo. It's an amazingly simple and accurate simulation (Not Game!) for electric RC airplanes. I wanted to practice in my favorite simulator RC-AirSim by Fabricated Reality. I can't say that it works with any transmitter, but I can say that it's compatible with the Spektrum DX6 There are commercial solutions available, depending on your interface type, but if you have an arduino ( and who doesn't? ) you can very easily connect a transmitter that supports PPM trainer / buddy box connections. The major disadvantage to using a simulator is that using a mouse, keyboard, touchscreen device, or standard video game controller, can be quite a different experience than the bulky transmitter with gimbals.
When it comes to flying RC aircraft using a simulator can be a great way to hone your skills during the off season or even prepare for your first flight.
