Yup, we have a Prolific-chipset USB-Serial adaptor (AirLink 101 is the brand/model, it was actually the cheapest USB-Serial adaptor in the store) and it works extremely well for downloading code to the RC. We have 2 National Instruments USB-Serial adaptors and a Belkin, and those three work great for interfacing with the Dashboard but not so much for downloading code to the RC.
