lonie Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Guy with regards to downloading phoenix you don need a licences lead... It's possible to download a crack for it that allows you to use a standard lead, I know I've done it, don't have a copy anymore but I can source it if you want to pm me I'm sure I ca help, I also did it for real flight g3/4.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porl_hopkins Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Phoenix is one of the best sims around as you can use your own tx. Spend as much time as you can on it. The lead is NOT available to buy anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j1273 Posted February 8, 2012 Author Share Posted February 8, 2012 It is helping me massively!! While I could do nice forward flight with loops flips and rolls, actually slowing it down and trying to hover into a flip and finish level and in the same area is sooo hard!! I need literally hours more of just hover practise!!! Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

animal47 Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I've also now picked up a copy although I havent used it much. I haven't upgraded to v4 yet, is it worth it. I am useless at this type of thing, I can happily hover battery after battery without getting bored when using my honeybee or mcpx but after 5 mins on the sim I am bored silly and just start acting daft, it doesn't help that I am useless on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 i tend to try things on the sim fore i try it on my helli's , i know what you mean tho about the sim being boring , you dont get the same buzz from the sim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stebro Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I find the sim a little boring too and end up crashing the heli more than i do with my real 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
animal47 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Spent a bit of time on the sim tonight and have a question. All was going well on the mcpx which I have been sticking to up to now as I couldn't see the point in going on anything else when that is what I fly, I do struggle to see the mcpx especially when trying to learn nose in so decided to try on a bigger heli which I was expecting to be much more stable and easier as I can see it properly but I had loads of trouble with the cyclic being way too sensitive, so much so that I could barely control a big raptor. Is this because I have my dx7 set up for my mcpx and for other models on the sim it needs different tx settings or do the tx settings not make a difference once connected to the sim.

hydro Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 it will be because you have your tx settup for the mcpx try using the scale wizzard if your struggling to see the mcpx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
animal47 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Every time i try and use scale wizard the heli does not fly properly, it has almost zero rudder control and barely takes off, no idea why just changing the size should make any difference.

Stormbringer Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 you should be using a model memory for phoenix and it should be set to helli (dx6 and up ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j1273 Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 Animal Ive tried the mcpx out on the sim. Ive never flown it in real life but it stinks on the sim!! I just use the trex 700 cos its not too small to see!! Dont expect the sim to be super real life cos it cant be. just use it for what it is practise!! I also have a separate model in my dx6i one for the helis one for the planes!! Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
