Use FS-i6X for Simulator WITHOUT SM100 Cable (with Sep. 2019 Firmware)

Ғылым және технология

FlySky PSA: I updated the firmware on my FlySky i6X transmitter to the latest available (September 2019), and now I'm able to connect to flight simulators using the supplied data cable rather than the Flysky SM-100 USB adapter cable (sold separately). Interesting. COMMENT AND LET US KNOW IF THIS WORKS FOR YOU! 👌

    When I bought my fs-i6x people said the supplied cable could only be used to update the firmware, after seeing this I updated the firmware to the latest v10.0.25 2022 and now it works on the sims with the supplied cable. Thank you!

    i updated it using the firmware in the desc but still no luck with default data cable. It detects an input but it's either a 1 or a 0 based on the gimbal position and obviously doesnt work with sims at all. It did work before with the sm100 cable but that broke (bad quality). ANy idea what to do?

    Thanks for this- I can use the cable provided with the I6x, but it is an iffy usb connection in Win 10. Sometimes it is recognized and most of the time it is rejected as a "malfunctioning usb device". Anyone else have this problem or had it and solved it? Thanks!

The FLYSKY controller is recognized but zero motion on the calibration screen. Is there a necessary model or mode select on the FLYSKY FS-I6X I need to change?

    1.upgrade Newest Firmware (14channels) 2. Batterie mod (switch to lipos or li-ion. 2s mod, But the 2 3.3v voltageregulators must be replaced(They only can handle up to 6v,also the resistors of the voltage divider must be changed only linear regulators!!!! No switching ones(They will lower your range). i build also a 5200 mah 2s2p in and also addet usb charging. (i use the X-lite charging board charges 2s lipo and li-ion) pictures are also on my instagram. Never use a Powerbank or something similar becourse you never know how full the Batterie is in flight. A Powerbank can cut the Power whithout any warnings so the drone will Crash. I use the voltage warnings on the tx and unprotected cells. I Risk the cells in the tx,But i Set the low voltage Alarm so i can Fly for over 20 minutes. So i Risk proberly nothing. 4.Antenna mod (i dont need this and I didnt Do it.) 5. Gimbal mod 6.custom pictures (like the Helikopter can be changed to a Drohne.) 7 switch mod (2pos switch to 3pos switch) ....

    I use the fs i6 whith a flightcontroller and resiver (basicly my Drohne) Set as a Simulatorcable. But i also had the Simulatorcable, But i dont like it, wireless is better and there are no extra cost, only a Single betaflight cli setting. Also there is no Risk to burning the vtx becourse only the resiver and the flightcontroller are Powered up by usb.

    do you have a link somewhere for the 2019 firmware? currently with the 2022 firmware. moving 1 axis is moving multiple axis. there is no way i can bind this to controls to fly a simulator. throttling up is like i am also pushing on the other rods.
