I use a Spektrum DX5e and it works great with this quad. I was told however if if wanted to upgrade to the much more advanced quads the DX6i would be necessary. I hope this helps and good luck!

I have a DX6i and it works great. The instructions come with setup information for most Spektrum transmitters. You can also just get the RTF version that comes with a transmitter (controller). The Spektrum computerized transmitters are nice if you intend to make this a hobby as you can store profiles for multiple helios/airplanes and just pick the one you are flying for the session, allowing you to save some money by getting the BNF versions.

any DSM2 controller will work. There's lots of manufacturers that support this standard. Spektrum supports this as does OrangeRx.

If it's IR you should be able to get it to work. Will not work if the controller is RF.

You may want to look into the wii classic controller which has joysticks and a dpad. Or the xbox 360 controller works great for pc

The best think to do is purchase Pocketwizards AC3 Zone controller. Check out this video by Pocketwizard. This should answer question perfectly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HGyVhoW8iY

Yeah you can, also, check out the sabrent controller. The blue one. It also comes in a 2-pack, can't go wrong with that. A lot cheaper too.

Customer support at support@skyrockettoys.com is the best source. They have great support. I had a defective controller they replaced promptly and their other replacement parts are priced very low.

I'm not sure. I think you can use that type of controller using one of Windows automatic drive install features. You plug it in and Windows may find a driver that will work for that controller. If not, try finding a utility or software online that you can download for that type of controller. I do research online through forums like Digital Storm, Anandtech, Bittech and Tomshardware to find answers. Just ask a question to the forum users and in most cases you will get a reply back within 24 hours. You may have to register on their site though.

I've tried the razer its been repackaged several times since I tried it. The sailtek is the better controller however be gentle with its analog stick if that part were more robust I could recommend it more. The software was sufficient enough for me to do just about anything I wanted in any game however it has a learning curve.

Yes, but you need to find another driver to completely support this controller on PC.

Manufacturer does not seem all that interested in supporting games, a mistake IMHO, as it's a great controller for a few existing and many more upcoming titles. Fortunately some dedicated users have provided a solution that will work with any game supporting a conventional joystick. Search for an open source utility called vJoy and install it in combination with another utility, Sx2vJoy. Configure via the latter and you're all set. Original drivers are not required. The device itself is very well made and well worth the hassle.

Hi! You can use any pc available controller. I for one, use the 360 controller sometimes but my brother uses his ps3 controller and it works nice with both.

You can buy extra controllers but the one I bought did not work and was a waste of money.

This controller is just a Dualshock controller. It does not have Sixaxis support

I'm not sure, but a controller only costs 10 bucks, and can save you from burning out your battery and your solar panel if something does go wrong

It should be plug and play but if some reason a driver is corrupt, for example, you can go to microsoft's hardware site a download the driver package for the controller.

Which "Bumblebee" are you referring to? Regardless, this controller is WAY outdated and not recommended at all. I only bought it because I didn't know any better and immediately replaced it. If you're just starting out, you want a KK2 from Hobbyking.
