Esky Honeybee CP2 Trainer cable for TX to TX connection

[oachu]

Does anyone have a diagram or knows how to make the trainer cable from a S-Video Cable to connect my TX to another TX. I'm learning how to fly my heli (E-Sky Honeybee CP2) but I'd like to have the help of an expert next to me :wink:

Many thanks for the help!!!

OACHU welcome to helitown , Does your TX have a training port ? Is it mentioned in the manual? Hopefully someone with an Esky Honeybee CP2 can answer your question... 8)

oachu, I don't know how to make it but there is a training cord for Esky Honeybee CP2 TX. BP sells it for $6.95 but they are out of stock. I am sure if you check other online stores, you'll find it.

Hello, and wellcome to HeliTown.

Normally it's a matter of crossing over the signal out/in so when looking for the pinouts on the sim cable I made I stumbled across this

No point in re-inventing the wheel! Better yet there are some instructions.

Trainer cables don't work on helis as well as on fixed wing because by the time the student gets out of sorts the instructor would have to be very good and plenty lucky to save it. Especially on a micro, (which most instructors used to a larger heli would have a hard time flying anyway). IMO read "Radd's school of rotary flight" adhere to it and you'll have little problems.

Then again if it's something you WANT to do, enjoy!

Many thanks guys, I'll give it a try this afternoon. It seems that the S-Video cable will work by just swapping 2 cables.

Thanks for the help!!!
