hi guys and gals got a question for you all. I brought a great cockpitsonic tq from a memeber of mycockpits which i am happy with. The tq is motorized but unfortunatly this never worked when i brought it, i have tested the servos and motor and they all work fine so i have located the problem to the interface board. i contacted cockpitsonic and mathias was really helpful and could supply a new interface board but it was a bit exspensive for me but he did say a phidgets card would also work. so the question is which one would i use??? there are hi-tec servos and a 12v motor..

many thanks john d

3 x PhidgetServo 1-Motor
1 x PhidgetInterfaceKit 8/8/8
1 x Dual Relay Board

FS2PHIDGETS 4.3.7

If you need to know how to connect post here.

No. This is only the cards. You keep the servo's for spoiler, throttles and trim. Those cards used to connect the existing servo's
