Guys,
I've just bought a Futaba Skysport 4 radio. Can I make a cable to connect it to a computer and use with a simulator on my own? Does anybody have specifications for such a cable? Also, what kind of plug would I need for a transmitter side (the radio hasn't arrived yet)?
Thanks.

You can do it... What simulator are you using/intending to use? Most simulators sell cords and I would advise you to just buy one... If you are going to use it with FMS (free download) http://n.ethz.ch/student/mmoeller/fms/index_e.html they have instructions on how to make one but it sounds like a pain in the butt to me... Hope this helps...
