Harry what windows are you using. You need the Software and Drivers from the purple file tab above. You must install the drives. When you plug the USB in it must no come up Unrecognized. You need to plug everything, then turn the Transmitter (Tx) on. Then you need to select the correct coms port (Normal com9, com10 or com11). Now once it is working, please remember to save the BASE settings. So you can load them back to the Tx once you mess up!
David if you have success please consider posting it on the Members Forum.(Blue tab at top of page). In the DIY section, I think it would be a hot item!
Ok, will do. First I've gotta find a controller that will handle the trainer capability (or to get another cheap one and modify it). But I will post if I get anywhere!
Thankyou!
still cant get her to work :( win 8 x64 this cable and a orange tx. use ppjoy and t6sim, then tryed digitalradio. am i missing a step here? have the drivers too.
Not entirely sure Harry. I had some problems on Win7 and in the end what I had to do was uninstall everything (drivers and t6Cfg for me) then reinstall using one of the other drivers available (if I remember right). Not all of them always work for people which is annoying, so you kindof have to try them and see which works for you...
hmmm, yea... does the light in the USB part of the cable come on? if it does then it should be connecting right, if not then I think maybe incompatible with win 8? Does anyone else know for sure whether this is compatible with Orange TX's anyway?
Arnold this is the cable you use to program Hobby King 2.4Ghz 6Ch Tx & Rx V2 (Mode 1 or 2)
(SKU: HK-T6A-M1 or M2). That is all. With the correct program it also can be used as a simulator cable.
Hello,
Unfortunately no..
but you can use the Wireless USB for simulator in this product code : 26000002. in this USB u should have the receiver to connect with.
Best Regards
Will this work with the HK-T6A V2 6 Channel transmitter so I can use it as a Flight Simulator? If so, what do I need to do to make it work. I am hoping to hear from someone who has actually done this. I have T6config and my computer recognizes the tx sometimes when it allows me to select COM3 in the Setting under System Option. The T6config shows that the tx is connected and shows that the channels are working. T6config does not always give me the option to select between COM1 and COM3. It just shows COM1. Also, the connector at the computer end heats up to about 130 degrees F. Is this normal? I have an HK6 Channel R/C Flight Simulator and this works with the flight simulator program.
I dont know why you would want to use your HK-T6A if you already have the HK6 sim but you need to install and run ppjoy and t6sim, its a bit tricky to set up but once done you can use on rcdeskpilot or FMS
Thanks for the info. I will be teaching some students how to fly RC airplanes, and didn't want to buy transmitters and simulators. When you say 'a bit tricky,' what do you mean?
requires a bit more configuring than some can handle but if you google search a bit you will find a few web pages that show how to set them up, sorry I cant link them here.
yeah i downloaded them but when i try to open the file it comes up with a window that says my trail has run out and i have to buy the full version even though ive never downloaded it before
Does this cable come with a new Orange-RX T-Six transmitter or do I have to buy it separate?
Also, what is the correct cord to use this radio for buddy box?
Joa it says clearly on the listing for that Transmitter that you need to buy a programming cable. So no it does not come with a new Orange-RX T-Six transmitter and Yes you do have to buy it separately.
Sorry Joa it is not clear "This transmitter requires a PC to modify any of the channel variables including mixing and servo reversing.
Included* 1 x 2.4Ghz transmitter, 1 x 2.4Ghz Receiver, 1 x Bind Plug. So you do not get the cable so you need to buy or borrow one!
Sorry, Turnigy 6xs radio do you mean? No, if you want to use a simulator cable better take a look at "USB Simulator Cable" here in HK, there are 3 types.
Does anyone know when hobbyking will be getting more in stock or where I can get one to program my controller with in the meantime? Or has anyone tried making one themselves as it seems hobbyking is currently out of stock and I need one asap, thanks.
more stock shouldnt be too far away, yes I have made my own cable, if you google ( Make your own USB cable for HK-T6A calibration ) there is a web site showing how to do it, you can buy cables off ebay although at a much inflated price,
Asher please consider putting your email address in "STOCK ARRIVAL ALERT" this way you will get an email when it come in. Also if you are close I have one you, can borrow! You can PM (private message) in the members forum (Blue Tab at top of Page).
Reece it is called a 4-pin mini-DIN connectors. It is the same as the plug on S-Video. It is not the same as a Ps2 Computer Keyboard. I hope this helps.
Its not the same as an S-video cable either (although it looks the same and has the same pins and will fit) the outer shield is the earth on this cable on an S-video the outer shield is not used at all, so if your thinking of making your own its not that easy but0 can be done
Rexy03 never say can not be done. The main issue is built into the USB end of thr cable, is a converter from USB to Serial. To buy the parts to make this cable is far over the cost of the cable and postage.
hello i just recieved my orange t-six and i have already bought this usb cable but my computer will not recognize the tx please anyone can you tell me what file to download or exactly what i need to do to get this to work on my simulator i have a windows 7 laptop thank you
Hi Marcus, I use this cable to program my CT6B. Because the T6 is a fully programmable Tx I think you want the cable to connect to your pc for a simulator.
This is a program cable, search for simulator cable. PRODUCT ID: 265000001 any idea?
Happy flying! *)
Tyler NO no software as of yet. It will run on any mac or PC. Can you just look at you next Side walk clean up. Any old P4 or P3 will work. Something with Xp installed and you will be underway. Last year I found a old laptop on the footpath. I put in the car, to bring to the field when I use this controller. Mind you is it is getting less and less now I have a Turnigy9XV2.
Robert sweet then all you will need is this cable and a micro adapter to you phone. So a app that can talk wireless to this, would be great. So please post any great ideas in the members forum, as well. There is a section in the forum for DIY. I think it is under used.
Haydz if you give too many credits to one person too quickly HK will look hard at both of them. Since you have no real reason to start too many new questions, please just be careful. HobbyKing work hard and you need to use them to help. There hand are tired in some things. That is were the members can help. Any way Good Flying and please do not credit me (for a while!) THANKS
hi. i need this 6Ch Rx Tx and the USB cable but i can save money on this combine deal, but the problem is i am not sure whether the cable is included in the combo or not ?
what are the products in the combo
Combo with which other products? if you by the transmitter with the cable, weight will pass 1 kg and you'll pay a lot more. If you need to buy both cable and Tx is better to buy them separated. You'll pay less for the shipping.
Hey waleed, simple answer is no they aren't sold as a package. The cable is sold separately but of course you could get both on the same order if you purchase from the international store.
Rexy03. Thanks again. Sorry to ask all these Qs. I'm getting really frustrated with HK as they don't seem to want to help or give correct info. I'll try the forums page. Could I speak to you in the forums page? Haydz.
Haydz are you or did you TALK to Rexy03 in the OPEN Forum. Haydz please make sure you read the rules first. HobbyKing does act quite quick, if you break any rules badly.
Cool yes it does take a while. So firstly you can reply to most thing. If you have a new question you go to that area and start a new topic. Also if you know the members, users name, you can send a private message!
Rexy03. Thanks for that. I just gave you more points. I sent that last msg to HK support centre. Could you please answer my second last msg to you (the one about how to gain information on the points and polices.)
Haydz.
Haydz, I gained the information from reading lots of info on hobbyking and different forums, I dont think there is any written policy on here, haydz you should take your questions to the forum instead this page
Rexy03. Here is what I have sent to HK.....
I believe that HK's own quotation about customer service is a whole lie due to how HK doesn't seem to care that they are diceving their members quite seriously.
Eg. This is still on the website even though apparently HK stopped giving points away more then a month ago........
Do you know R/C!?

HobbyKing**** ANSWERS
Help other customers with their questions.We have given out more than $8,919.00 in credit!****
Also I have being treated quite badly by HK delaying my refund and giving bad advise. Also I've had a few items broken when I've received them and it costs more for postage to send it back.
So HK needs to start appreciating their members and start following their own website and quotation.
This is the quotation which I believe us a lie......

//////// Rexy03 hope you can understand this msg.
Haydz.
Haydz, I cant help you in regards to your issues with HobbyKing, I can only suggest you raise your concerns with the CUSTOMER SUPPORT CENTRE via the contact Tab, I know it is annoying trying to get warranty as I have been through it a couple times but this is the risk of buying mail order online regardless of the company involved, i wish you luck with your issues
Haydz it is true. You have give Rexy03 real credits by voting for his answer as best. If he did not answer your question you should not vote him as so. Once you answer some questions, you to may get some credits. But do realize it is not a free for all. It is a place that takes the weight off customer service. Now Rexy03 knows that but since no credit had been awarded he could not say it. In fact it may cost me to tell you.
Rexy03. Thanks for that. If I never asked you* how would I have found out how the poinst are applied (as in where could I read about HKs polices and procedures? And about the bonus points?) You have helped better then HK, could I ask you Qs instead if wasting my time with HKs bunch of informative individuals, if I could how can I talk to you without going through the Cable comments?
Haydz.
Hayz I hope you know NOW. At the top of the page is a Blue Forum Tab. In that forum it is must freer. Also you can send private messages there to. Just do not sent to many!!!
Haydz it is good you heard me. Many just do not. Any way it seem you have Rexy03 on the job. So you do not need a new question for every thing. You can reply!
Rexy03. Thank- for helping me better then HK. HK wasn't able to inform me if how they work. HK is completely hopeless as this is what they said to me about bonus points.......
Please be advised that we do not offer bonus poinst for helping customers in discussion. We offered points for best answers to customers, but this kind of points can not be used on our website for payment.Please be advised that bonus points reward system for discussion session was cancelled.**-
I believe that HK has no idea what they are talking about.
Thanks again. Haydz.
Newtohobbyking. Thanks for your help. I'm not trying to "sweet talk" anyone I just trying to get good customer service and truthfully responses to my issues. The only place I'm getting that is through other members.
