Re: USB Joystick to RS232(DB9)

That goes the other way - lets you use a USB "host" port as a serial port. Also, you dont want serial output (there are some Joysticks taht do serallel (a sorta serial/parallel combo) over the gameport, they do not work with the OI), you want analog and digital outputs in "flightsick compatable" form. The only way to do this would be to use your own microprocessor that had a usb interface (there are some microchip PIC chips that can use USB) and write some custom code to convert it and then output it using the internal DAC and digital outs. It would be quite a project, probally better for the offseason.\

What you want is something that lets you use a usb "guest/client" port and outputs "flightsick compatabile gameport" form. I doubt one exists, but let us know if you find one.
