AeroFly sim transmitter?

[Joe Dunnaway]

Hey Lance,
  The frequency module in the 8U will remove the RF.  You can use it without the module on your simulator.

  That's a good idea.  But I don't have a 7UAP.  I've got an 8U, but I think the freq module is all that can be removed.  Don't know how to remove the RF.  I've also got a boxful of Conquests, 6XA's and other low end transmitters.  Are there any RF lobotomizing instructions out there for other radios that don't make it so convenient?

    Lance, I just got Aerofly Pro myself and have been using an older Futabe 7UAP with no RF module in it for the TX.  Battery lasts forever without an RF load on it.  Works great and I am not wearing out my 'good' TX.  I am impressed by the 'feel' of Aerofly Pro compared to the older Realflight G2.  Have also tried the Realflight G3 and my vote goes for AFP.  The included Smaradg feels real good, actually snaps and spins and the out of the box setup is pretty close.  I increased the down elev throw a little and also bumped the rudder a little and that is all.

      So I think I've seen that most everyone thinks the Ikarus AeroFly Pro simulator is good for pattern.  I'm thinking of getting a sim but I'm nervous about using my transmitter with the antenna down.  Don't want to overload the RF and I don't want to sit at my computer with a 3 foot antenna banging off my office furniture.  Oh, and I don't want to buy a new transmitter that lets me turn off the RF.  What are you all doing for a transmitter?
