[simpits-tech] USB connection help

[fitchett]

The thrustmaster is probably a low speed device, and they are allowed to
use a really cheap cable that is attached permanently to the device.  You
can either buy a jack to attach to the end of it,

925K-ND from Digikey,
Or buy a cable and cut the end off of it.  The cables I have
seem to consistently use Red for the +5V, Black for Gnd, and white/blue
for D+/D-.  You can hook up the white/blue flipped, and the device should
survive.  +5V and Gnd?  Probably not.
