Can an RC ground transmitter connect to a PC?

[Inspector86]

I have been doing some searching for a way to connect an RC ground transmitter to a PC. I see a lot of ways to connect RC flight transmitters but I have not found anything on how to connect a ground transmitter. It seems to me that you could simply use the output signals from any RC receiver as input into a PC. I'm still looking but I thought I would ask here if anyone knows of a PC interface that would work using a ground transmitter.

Ya, not all radios are capable but some are.

Get yourself a Radiolink RC4GS V3 (or V2 for a bit less if you can get one).
Radiolinks have a usb port on the Tx and are CPU Compatible.

they're like 65.00 usd direct from Radiolink on Evilzon (Amazon).

The Noble NB4 I have, can be connected directly to your pc and used for RC training.

Relatively cheap transmitters, and a high quality radio.

Just plug and play, no drivers, it's detected automatically on windows.

As for software, this game/simulator is free: https://www.vrcworld.com/about/

That's pretty cool. Have you tried the PC game/simulator? Any good?

It works fine, it will actually work for any game.


For a free game, it's very nice indeed. Physics feel realistic, and controlling the cars feels very similar to controlling the real thing.

I'm going to have to take a serious look at the Noble. Reviews seem to be pretty positive. Thanks for the link!!!!
