I bought this cable to connect my Futaba to practice prior to flying my first RC. It does not work at all. The connector on the Futaba side is very cheap looking and poorly manufactured. I don’t know if the manufacturing quality is the problem or that it won’t work with Vista but this product is trash.

Works fine and I can pratice out of the field

Gets the job done (I use it to connect my RC transmitter to my computer and to interface with X-plane). Its a little fragile, but it does the job.

It shipped right away but took some time to reach me since it shipped from Canada.
I plugged it into my computer (running Vista Ultimate 32 bit) — it found drivers automatically and showed up in my game controllers. I couldn’t get it to respond to the radio (Futaba 7C) for a while, I finally realized that the plug (in the trainer port on the back of the radio) wasn’t making a good connection. I wiggled it a bunch and got it working. It took some messing around with the calibration to get everything working right, but after that it worked great! I have it up and running with (ahem) the Dongle Emulator V3.3 for RealFlight G4.5.
Pros:
-plug&play
-good length cord
-price!
Cons:
-trainer port plug doesn’t fit very well
-had to calibrate a couple times to get everything working right
