Using a USB RC simulator controller in FSX?

First time posting to this forum, but has anyone out there ever tried using an rc airplane sim controller on FSX and if so how did you configure it? I ordered a sim controller, haven't received it yet, but was very curious as to whether or not it could be used in FSX as a controller. FSX's fixed tower cam view would seem to make for a pretty good simulator perspective and a great alternative to the rc sim software included with the controller. Your thoughts and/or experiences are greatly appreciated and thanks in advance.

I'd like to know the same thing. Why pay $200 for a RC simulator. I would think FSX could do the job. The tower view is an excellent idea. Set the tower height to ground level. Or, could even use a "spotter" view.
