One thing to keep in mind is to make sure that you use a straight 25 pin, 25-conductor cable, and not a standard printer cable. I'm helping out a few teams in the area, and we tried using a printer cable last night to wire up a mockup of some digital input switches on the RC, and when we took the plastic shield off of the solder cup, we realized that the last few pins were all bridged together. Of course, with the pin arrangement used on the RC, this would not allow for use of all digital inputs, and may even have the possibility to damage the RC.
