FIRST FLIGHT – CHANGING AIRCRAFT AND FLYING SITES

If you own one of these versions, the controller allows you to make a variety
of changes to the simulation without ever taking your hands off of the
controller.
To make changes during flight, press the Select/Scroll button located on the
front of the Spektrum InterLink DX controller. Use the Select scroll wheel to
select your category of choice. Press the Select/Scroll button once again to
activate this choice.
If you want to fly with your own R/C transmitter using the RealFlight interface, or if you want to fly through the Spektrum InterLink DX controller’s interface option, please refer to the RealFlight Manual for setup assistance.
CHANGING MODE 2 TO MODE 1
Some pilots prefer to fly with a Mode 1 Transmitter. If you fly with a Mode 1 Transmitter, please refer to the RealFlight Manual for instructions on how to convert your Spektrum InterLink DX controller to Mode 1.
