Does anyone know which USB to Serial adapters currently work with TMO software and/or DSMLink 1g? I'd like to know which ones are known to work before I buy and try. Thanks

I can tell you stay away from FT8U100AX, FT8U232AM and FT8U245AM USB controller products. I spent 30 bucks on one of these and can't get the drivers to work on any of my systems 98 TSi AWD --- The Everything Must Go Garage Sale!

I think mine was ~$80 or so. I had NO luck with a USB - serial. Neither, has anyone I know who has tried. Now, I'll have all kinds of time to talk about DSMs, because I won't be busy fixing mine!
