I've just bought and installed AeroFly Pro v1.2.4. The program starts successfully, but when I try calibrate the transmitter
none of the bars move when I move the transmitter's sticks. I'm using a Hitec Eclipse 7 Tx, connected to my Serial port using
the supplied cable and 5 pin adapter connected to the 'trainer' port of the Tx.

If anyone has any ideas what the problem might be, I'd be very grateful.

Hello Phil,

from my experience (AF & AFP, my both adapter cables showed similar problems), the the small jack, which connects the two 5-pin plugs with the serial cable, might have bad contact. Since I don't see why this connection needs to be disconnectable, I simply solved it by replacing the m/f jacks by a soldered connection.
