FlySky Data Cable USB Download Line For FS-i6 FS-T6 Transmitter Firmware Update
A part of the review has been auto-translated.
Received the cable. My mistake was that i thought this could be used for simulators and i was wrong. I haven't been able to use it with simulators and i think that this cable is for firmware updates only. It's my fault though, i should've read the description better ...
This cable is for firmware updates and NOT for flight simulator use. It is a simple single cable solution that does not require additional adapters to connect your Flysky to your PC. For Flight simulator cable see Banggood product ID:1047126. The attached photo shows the two different cables side by side. They look the same but don't work the same. I do recommend both cables.
I used this to upgrade my fs-i6 to 10 channels w/ up to 5s voltage alarm and RSSI. I downloaded the latest version of benb0jangles FlySky-i6-Mod. There are alot of videos on it.I did have trouble getting it to communicate with the 10ch_MOD_i6_Programmer. The first thing you have to do is open your device manager then plug in the cable. you will see the ports icon pop up and it will tell you what com port it is on (COM4 in my case). unplug the cable from computer. Open the 10ch_MOD_i6_Programmer, enter update firmware mode on transmitter, plug cable into transmitter and computer. Select the com port you found earlier, click open port and it should show "FLY-SKY i6 xxx" in the firmware version box. Then click program and your done. Restart the transmitter and set it up how you like it.
ne pas tenir compte de ce qui se dit sur internet, ce câble fonctionne à merveille. j'ai flashé ma EACHINE i6 avec le programme pour FlySky FS-i6 10 channels j'ai maintenant une télécommande 10 canaux et cerise sur le gâteau, mon récepteur FS-IA6B fonctionne maintenant en PPM, ce qui n’était pas le cas avant.
What about a cable that does what it says to do, I bought it on purpose And fortunately it works. it only serves to update the remote control and not for anything else, it does not write because it is not a pen, it does not fly because it does not have wings, but it connects perfectly between remote control and PC! the materials are not top quality but I don't have to wear it around my neck to show off in an evening...
flysky firmware cable updated my eachine i6 controller to 10 channels 👍
Description is correct. The cable works perfect and it's ONLY for firmware update, NOT for simulator connection, so be aware of that.
A decent quality cable, does what it is supposed to do. Product description is as described in the shop. Very reasonable price if you ask me. And no, it's not mend for use with simulators in case you were wondering.
When connected to transmitter and PC, the firmware upgrade software does recognize the transmitter, so that is good. I haven't tried yet, but eventually will upgrade my i6 to make it a 10-channel transmitter. BE AWARE - if you are expecting this to work as a flight simulator (e.g. FPV Freerider, AerosimRC, etc.) connector cable, IT IS NOT! It appears to only work for transmitter firmware upgrades.
update firmware for fs transmitter. not for pc simulator firmware update only
