Go for AFPD. Works great with Smart Propo Plus.

AFPD = Aero Fly Pro Deluxe.

Which radio and cable are you using?


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: rcrcnitesh on May 21, 2014, 10:29:10 PM
Rcb6i and fms cable


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: Swapnil on May 21, 2014, 10:40:54 PM
Did you check it on other operating systems? Maybe it's a compatibility issue.


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: rcrcnitesh on May 22, 2014, 07:45:50 AM
No
I have got fms working but what about my radio its not being detected.
Can i use afpd with this setup


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: Swapnil on May 22, 2014, 07:47:05 AM
Yes, but your OS needs to detect the controller first.

Hey Swapnil,

I have both rcb6I and Flysky FS T6. any idea and suggestion for a simulator. have you tried either of them.


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: Swapnil on May 22, 2014, 08:00:02 AM
I use my Futaba 7CHP with AFPD and Smart Propo Plus instead of a PPM to USB interface.

Calibrate the sticks and switches.

how do i


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: Swapnil on May 22, 2014, 10:04:07 AM
There should be a controller configuration option in your control panel. Or you could do it in AFPD.

That means your controller isn't being detected by your PC.


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: rcrcnitesh on May 22, 2014, 10:21:31 AM
what do you say about this


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: rcrcnitesh on May 22, 2014, 10:29:13 AM
how did you download afpd


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: Swapnil on May 22, 2014, 10:34:05 AM
what do you say about this
Hmmm. Then your PC isn't reading the sticks properly. Try tinkering with the controller settings.

I didn't download AFPD. I won it in the '1st sweepstakes'.  ;D


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: rcrcnitesh on May 22, 2014, 10:37:17 AM
how do I. I can't get this thing working


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: Swapnil on May 22, 2014, 10:41:54 AM
Without looking at your setup I can't provide much help. Isn't there some RCI member in your city you could ask to come over and check?


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: rcrcnitesh on May 22, 2014, 10:52:51 AM
Well i dont know


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: rcrcnitesh on May 22, 2014, 11:39:01 AM
I can upload a video if you want


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: Swapnil on May 22, 2014, 11:44:38 AM
It could be a driver issue. Try updating the controller driver.
A video won't reveal much. Someone needs to be there personally and examine the setup. Do try it on another PC with Windows 7 or XP.

Microsoft dropped retained mode rendering from Directx with Windows Vista.. You need to download d3drm.dll from here,

http://www.microflight.com/s.nl/ctype.KB/it.I/id.1390/KB.1034/.f (http://www.microflight.com/s.nl/ctype.KB/it.I/id.1390/KB.1034/.f)

and put it in C:\windows\system32 and c:\windows\syswow64 (on a 64 bit system).

PS: if you have an Nvidia graphics card, textures will not display so turn them off...

@girish sir I got it working yesterday.
@swapnil sir from where can I download the drivers


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: rcrcnitesh on May 23, 2014, 11:00:34 AM
the dongle which I have has a joint which is sealed with heat shrink between the dongle and the 3.5mm jack.
Can the problem be with the dongle.

I am going the smartpropoplus route


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: rcrcnitesh on May 24, 2014, 02:39:21 PM
has anyone used sppp with win 8 if yes can you tell me the procedure.
I guess the problem is with the tx


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: v2 eagle on May 24, 2014, 09:54:16 PM
Nitesh,

There is another route called "Fly it in the Ground" which is much better than this. all that you need to do is to design a pusher model that can bear the crash to an extent. try this, its much better.

Post by: rcrcnitesh on May 25, 2014, 11:41:41 AM
ok so i got it installed the fms one not the generic.
winscope doesn't show any movement but ppm audio works very well.
Also in FMS calibration the blue bars move by themselves.


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: rcrcnitesh on May 30, 2014, 09:16:58 PM
the problem was with the cable rcforall folks were kind enough to give a replacement.
It's working perfectly


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: rcrcnitesh on May 31, 2014, 10:30:46 AM
I am confused if the problem was with the cable then when I tried smartpropoplus why didn't it work


Title: Re: FMS not working on windows 8
Post by: Swapnil on May 31, 2014, 10:41:55 AM
I just checked the simulator cable that came with my E-Sky radio. It has a completely different pin configuration compared to my Sanwa SD 5G output even though they use the same connector.

The Sanwa connector has o/p as shown in the pic below while the sim cable has gnd on outer ring and signal on the gnd pin.

thanks for your support everyone

Post by: Swapnil on May 31, 2014, 11:20:23 AM
what do you say about this

Well, Windows 7 shows a PPM controller icon even with the wrong wiring. I faced the same problem this morning. The controller was being detected but there were no stick movements. The problem was solved after rewiring the PPM to USB dongle.
