This is the tool to let you do just that.The Orange Rx DSMX/DSM2 USB Dongle is really just a receiver that binds with your transmitter and interfaces with your computer. All you need to do is to allow the pre-loaded HID driver to install onto your PC, laptop (Mac users will need to download the relevant HID drivers) and bind your transmitter to the dongle in the same way as you would a receiver.There's never been a simpler way to use your transmitter as the controller for a flight simulator!Features:• Compatible with DSM2/DSMX 1024/2048 aircraft radio and module systems• 6 channel output to standard USB HID device• Compatible with all open source simulators (Freerider, HotProps, Liftoff, DRL etc) and many others.• Small in size• Low power requirements (typically 40mA)Specs:Protocol: DSM2/DSMXCurrent: 40mADimensions: 52.5 x 23.5 x 10.5mmPlease note:1) This is not a Spektrum DSM2/X product, nor is it a copy of a Spektrum DSM2/X product. The Spektrum and DSM2/X brand is a trademark of Horizon Hobbies USA.2) This is not an underground black market fake Spektrum product. OrangeRx quality is guaranteed.3) Accepted by the MAAA in Australia, see the MAAA MOP58 for guidance Review: like you are using a wired connection - Ordered this usb dongle for $15 just to check out if it works for my simulator. For that price, you really cannot go wrong, so I took the chance. I use the NEXT helicopter/multirotor/fixed wing simulator for the Mac. It does work. No drivers needed. Just plug in, turn your transmitter on and bind. It instantly bound on my Spektrum DX9. With the NEXT simulator, it however does not work correctly the first time, you have to go into the transmitter settings first and find the mode and set that works correctly for your transmitter. It first thought my transmitter was mode 1. I had to go into the settings and correct that. After finding the correct setting, you have to calibrate your transmitter, like you are using a wired connection. It is very important to disable the channels that you do not use in the software/transmitter settings. Otherwise the controls go haywire. Also, when starting the software, make sure that the dongle is unplugged. Start the software, turn on your transmitter then plug the usb dongle in. I do this even when using the wired usb connector to my transmitter. It might be a software issue. Other than that, this is an awesome training tool! For the price, it is great! Review: Works great with DX9 and RF8 - Works perfectly with my DX9. Here's a hint, press the button on the side then push it into the USB slot. It'll start blinking. If you push it into the slot first and then push the button the side it may not blink. After it starts blinking bind your radio... Be sure to take a few steps away from your laptop before binding. If you're too close it won't bind. I have Realflight 8 and a Spektrum DX9 and it works perfectly. Of course, figuring out the channel assignments on Realflight vs the DX9 is a separate issue which take a little time to decipher. But, this dongle does definitely work perfectly. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01MYBJ2LG | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (115) | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 8 ounces | | Item model number | 9171000899-0 | | Manufacturer | HobbyKing | | Manufacturer recommended age | 12 years and up | | Package Dimensions | 4.45 x 3.58 x 0.55 inches | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Hobby King - **Color:** orange - **Compatible Devices:** Desktop, Laptop - **Connector Type:** Micro USB - **Finish Type:** Orange ## Images ![HobbyKing Orange Rx DSMX/DSM2 USB Dongle for Flight Simulator - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41H6CfZcZCL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How do i download the relevant hid drivers into my mac?** A: I use a Mac and did not to download any drivers as I recall. Works great! **Q: Does it work with phoenix rc simulator?** A: For Phoenix R/C. this interface WILL NOT WORK. Phoenix uses a proprietary interface which also includes the software dongle. To use the Phoenix dongle without wires, you need a PPM receiver. For example the AR7700 - https://www.amazon.com/Spektrum-Serial-Receiver/dp/B017L9IFTU. I'm pretty sure that Orange also sells one. You'll also need to interface the receiver's PPM output to a 1/8" (3.5mm) jack, either by sourcing one or soldering one. **Q: Will this work with rf9?** A: Yes it will. I have one working with my RealFlight 9 through Steam on my DX9 controller. Please note that I can only get it to support 8 channels but this is consistent with the WS1000 dongle from Spektrum as well. **Q: Will this work with Real flight G4.5?** A: No. You must use the dongle it came with. That holds security authorization that allows the program to run. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ like you are using a wired connection *by D***O on March 22, 2017* Ordered this usb dongle for $15 just to check out if it works for my simulator.
