Howdy folks,
Can I use the software-only version of Realflight 9.5S with my original Interlink Elite "Futaba" controller?
I own a copy of Realflight G5.5 and the Interlink Elite controller, and it's all working fine, but I'd like to upgrade to 9.5. I realize that the new controller is all fancy and everything, but I honestly don't care about all the extra buttons and resolution, etc. My hesitation is that I'm not sure I can buy the controller alone if it is that I buy the software alone and realize I need it after the fact.
The requirements that I read sort of kind of make it sound like I can use any controller, but I get burned by fake specifications enough on the internet that I'm weary. Is the software still "dongled" by the Interlink controller? If I understand correctly, Realflight G5.5 won't run unless it detects the special Interlink controller, and I also think that it just shows up as a game controller too...
So what's the story? Will it work?
Thanks!
