    Cockpitsonic tq interface to phidgets???

    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

    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
