I have an InterLink DX USB transmitter which seems to have developed a hardware fault.
The rudder trim tabs no longer work properly, leaving all models with an annoying LH rudder offset. The rudder LH trim switch doesn’t do anything, and the rudder RH trim switch generates virtual beeps (via the PC sound card as driven by RF 9.5) when pressed, but has no effect on the actual model rudder trim in the sim.
I’ve opened the transmitter and checked the physical switch behind the rudder trim tab. The switch is working OK, so it looks as though there is something wrong in the electronics between the switch and the USB interface in the DX, as I’ve power cycled (unplugged) the InterLink DX Tx and the PC several times and the fault is still there.
A new InterLink DX is £90 or thereabouts, which seems a lot of money to fix a minor but annoying fault, so does anyone know either what’s gone wrong, or whether RealFlight offer any hardware repair facilities?
