It's very easy to make a simulator cable for RC Transmitter. And it's also very cheap and useful.

I don't have any of those little pin connectors by themselves so I cut open the female end of a servo lead extension wire and removed one of the pins. I pulled the pin with the white wire out and used red for signal/black for ground. It was a little loose so I spread the pins out a little and it stays in there nice and snug now.
If anyone can't find an s video cable or those little pin connectors, then you know what to do now.
By the way...this is the best tutorial for DIY simulator cable I've found. Your instructions are very thorough. No one else has mentioned what pin on the controller is the correct one.
My hat is off to you, brother!
Tip:
1) If SmartProPlus never connects to your transmitter then the most plausible cause is you are trying to insert the 3mm jack as shown in video to 3.5mm headphone jack in your laptop. The 3mm jack is detected as speaker. In order to use the 3mm jack in 3.5mmheadphone jack as microphone you need to 3.5mm headphone jack to microphone and speaker splitter. You can get it dirt cheap.
2)If your transmitter connects but the signal fluctuates too much then go to Manage your audio devices and then choose your external microphone and then decrease its level. The lower the level the more stable will be the signal.
Hope it helps!!
You saved my 300 rupees thanks keep posting such stuff
This worked perfectly....amazing work! Thank you!
so basicly you are saying that if i hookup a microfone to the headphone jack and shout in the correct tones i can control a plane in a flight sim?
Logically yes...... But can you do that?????????????????????????????? ;p
yessyou can but in order to generate pulse position modulated signal u have to to fit a signal generator in your mouth ...LOL
It's not a TONE as in not an audio signal, it's a PPM.
@@bobflyman well, it is a tone, but not the conventional sinusoidal tone signal
work like a charm (flysky fs-i6x). and indeed you can control it with a microfone aswel. (even usb) but good luck making the right tones. (low voice seems to be throttle down)
Hahaha
Hahaha yeah played around with it in the simulator XD super funny lots of crashes.
Managed to get off the ground once. I felt like the wright brothers
1:22 Check with ohm-meter, that there are no bridges (short circuit) between the wires. So, RED wire only connects to tip. BLK only connects to base, BLUE only connects to middle.
I've made a cable same as your video.. But the Smartpropoplus isn't detecting the tx.. Can I have any kind of help??
please check your connection
@@MakerHand I've made as same as you've made.. but my one isn't working.. 😔
I don't have S-video cable, very good idea to use 2 pole pin :)
Hello!
PropoPlus is working fine, but PicaSim is not recognizing the joystick signals. What may be wrong?
Thanks!!
i had also checked but currently its not working with other transmitter too
Greatly appreciated brother. Worked like a charm.
Hey, I just did this and it still works thank you! Hope you are keeping well. God bless
Thanks for your appreciation
Transmitter connected. But saying cannot feed position to vjoy device. And in picasim, after clicking joystick, it is saying no joystick detected or available. Please help me bro. 👍
hello buddy , i did exactly as in video ,but the roll over and pitch sticks are not getting calibrated , speed and yaw stick works well , kindly advice
Very good and helpful. When I tried my Flysky PPM to Mic input in windows 10 using SmartPropoPlus, the signals are flickering. Any reason ? And how to fix it. Appreciate it.
Please bro help me
I connected everything as u told in the video and then I installed all the softwares including the Net framework .
Then also when the connect the jack to my laptop and open the software it never connects and always keep fluctuating I am unable to connect I have checked my connections 1000 times and I am also not interested in purchasing a cable from banggood which will take ha huuuugge time to come
may be bad mic-in port
bro i solved my problem actually it was because i was connecting it into my laptops headphone jack but i realised that u told to connect into microphone port so i purchased a sound card(converts USB to MICROPHONE and HEADPHONE jacks separately )this solved my problem . but when i am using fpv simulator everything is okay but in the picsim software that u told in that i had one problem that my joystick position kept on fluctuating only on the throttle stick . any suggestion for that?? after calibration also.
by the way thank you for your jugaad.
visit my channel i think we have same ideas.
you could just buy the FS-i6X for the same price or cheaper than the fs-i6 oddly enough. the data cable included on the FS-i6X worked perfect on clearview. I have heard from several sources you can update the firmware to effectively make your fs-6i an X model. Aswell.
Sir,
Does the same technique works with other transmitters such as Avionic RGB6i which I have???
Yes, if it provide ppm output
Smartpropoplus does not recognize my old Hitec Focus 4, any idea?
:(
Do I have to power the transmitter by AA batteries or it will get electricity on its own from the pc through stereo cable?? Just asking to avoid any risk of something like shot circuit etc..😕😕
You need AA to power up the transmitter
thank you so much... great explanation...worked fine on my 3 in one jack
Excellent job buddy. Thanks.
bro can we use normal headphone jack?? plz reply....and say which is stereo cable plz reply
I can help if you let me know the details. If your computer has one jack it will probably work as a microphone jack
Thanks for ur reply i had brought new cable😊
@@atadhitamilanyt4117 Ok! Glad it’s working :)
Thank u soo much bro. I used it and was great. But after an hour it started not to working. Now when i connect it connect and disconnect again and again. I tried changing cable and pc and everything. Can u help me plz?
may be this is the glitch of software
Hey bro you work awesome
Please make a video that hoe to control brushed motor with flysky i6
hmm how about connecting it to the OTG cable to phone ?
Smartpropoplus detects my controller. But when i start LiftOff the sim doesnt detect it, what am i doing wrong?
I'v got the same problem. Did you solve it?
Will this work for laptop? Because when I tried it smartproplus was showing transmitter disconnected
Yes it works with laptop
Same is here give a solution forr it
If we already have S-Video cable do we have to install the Netframework...?
Thank you, this worked!
Hey bro I just purchased fs i6 but I want to use it with fpv free rider on my phone please tell what should be the procedure
use OTG
should we still go into simulation mode with the radio?
Make Hand. Do you have SmartPropoplus? I can't find on the internet the software.
Is 'an old earphone 3.5mm plug' same to what you are calling a 'stereo cable'?? Can I use a earphone plug??
yes you can
3.5 mm Jack
i used an old set of phone earplugs (with microphone on it)
just use multimeter to check wich wire is wich and connect them up correspondingly
Please make one video on how to make transmitter usb to ps2 trainer cable . There are no videos on TH-cam of that and many searching for that. I hope you wil get lots of views for that. So make it fast bro
That is brilliant mate
Can u use this with phone?
no
Thank you, sir!
Very welcome!
How to check ground cabel using multimeter
Very useful. Thank you.
Sir smartproplus software is not available pls help me
bro provide link for smart propo plus link not working
Sir are you have laptop or pc . If laptop then how many aux ports are there as in mine there are only onle jack for headphone not for mic thus I can't use it on my pc.
So, you need an USB Simulator
+MakerHand - hmmm... apparently, it could be connected without usb simulator..! but wht about fs-t6, could it be too..?
Whats the name of the cable in the right on 00:00
Its a s-Video cable
Don't buy the Chinese variant of it.....
They don't have a ground wire in it...
Tks
wht simulator softwares we need for this, could we use phoenix software .. bro?
Good video. I love it
does it work with RF simulator?
yes
@@MakerHand no it doesn't cause I've tried it
Could you please show how it work with RF
@@hasanenahmed2000 Unfortunately this time I have no Flysky transmitter.
My computer doesn’t recognize my transmitter as an external mic. It says that nothing is plugged into the jack. Any tips?
is your trasmitter in trainer mode?
Can i use 4 port headphone jack
yes
it works with my win 10 and reflex sim. but no airplane engine sim volume....if i turn up speakers i get a ping noise so loud it will drive u nuts. i have to fly with volume turned down. i just striped one end of the 3.5 stereo cable. And went direct in radio with ppm and a ground.ANYONE HAVE VOLUME???
Compatible fs i6X ???
Yes
Omg it's working but download freeride that's a much. Better simulator 😁
Can we use in phone
Is it working with freerider? Thanks advanved
yes
How do you make a data cable for firmware updating?
You can use ftdi adapter or Arduino or the cable of ct6b transmitter
Muito, muito obrigado!!
Deu super certo!!!
which app do you use for video edit?
Sony Vegas
Fpv drone aaye gaa is simulator m
No
thanks
My computer have only one 1 port for Head set (mic and head phones)
:(
Yes, Nodays laptops and many PCs come with one common 3.5 jack for both mic and earphones just like our mobile phones. You need to find separate jack which plugs into your laptop female jack and separates min and stereo, though hard to find during lockdown.

Bhai . Liftoff simulator ke bareme video banaona !
estou com um problema, no meu fsi6 funciona tudo perfeitamente,mas tem horas que tos controles ficam tudo doido , como resolver? por favor.
What??? can you speak English please???
MakerHand Google tradutor. Please.
then what is your language????
MakerHand português, Brasil.
o que você quer dizer com "há horas que os controles são todos loucos"
how to connect with Android phone plz bro make a another video
The link doesn't work
bhai recing drone training ka video banao
thankyou so much bro
Nice video
its not working any setting in controller need to be done
Will this work with fs ct6b
Amogh no
yep
What did he say???
its not connecting with software
Not working with my fkysky fsi6 10 ch moded
check your connection
Can you understand this dude? 4:10 WRONG... why didn't he solder yellow/brown leads directly TO the male-to-male header and eliminate the JR connector entirely? This way, it's easy to LOSE the damn header in the carpet and there's an extra break in the connection that doesn't need to exist!
You have to apply some crazy ideas, when you are running out of resources.
so what if you want to use the connector on the controller to upload firmware? desolder the wires again? yeah thought so.
this way is better.
or even better would be to use that svideo cable
its easier for noobs who don't really know how to solder even tho its easy af
so are you sure that this will works ALL lap tops and desktops.......hp pavilion needs a 4 way and the mic is and the opposite end of the plug.....
I don't have hp pavilion so I cant verify that.
But PPM is similar to sound signal, so it need to work with MIC in port
you r amazing
Making it at midnight
Verry nice i will also complete this couse some people have a problem with the connection on windows 10,they don't have a v joy 1 connection and this solve the problem,( is a copy paste from RC.GROUPS )
For those of you wondering how to get this working with any radio without the use of a USB dongle, download the application called "SmartPropoPlus" from www.smartpropoplus.com/site/ and install it.
Hook your radio up with a standard 3.5 mm audio cable and plug it into one of your soundcard speaker ports. SmartPropPlus and vJoy will detect the PPM pulses and transform them into a joystick driver which can later be used with games etc.
If you are running Windows 10 x64 as I am, the joystick emulator/driver doesn't work that comes bundled with the application.
The solution to that is to install latest SmartPropoplus and ignore the failed installation of vJoy, then manually install vJoy "vJoy_205_050515.exe" from sourceforge.net/projects/vjo...atest/download which will upgrade the older vJoy installation. After the installation is succesfull, follow the below workaround:
Copy, paste and replace the following files from C:\Program Files\vJoy\x64 to C:\Program Files\SmartPropoPlus folder:
msvcp120.dll
msvcr120.dll
vJoyInterface.dll
This should now make it possible to map input from SPP to vJoy.
Now check your "Set up USB game controllers" in Windows and hopefully you should see the "vJoy device". Calibrate your controller and then set up your radio in FPVFreerider. I recommend "use deadzone"
The channel don't line up correctly..sim is not playable..plz help me..need a offset dll..I can't find it anywhere
i used a diffrent sim. seems to work fine.
just select Vjoy as a controller
All channels have higher value numbers
unplug everything specially the cable from computer then replug.
MakerHand problem solved is was using a earphone cable..it didn't pass ppm signal well
MakerHand so you use aux cable
Not working
check connection
if the SmartPropoPlus link does work....try this link..
