which sim

[aci-bt]

i want to buy simulator and i can't decide between Reflex xtr or Phoenix sim. so which one would u recomend for 3d plane flying???

[papa_t]

Aerofly Pro Deluxe, hands down.

[aci-bt]

so u say that Aerofly Pro Deluxe is better from the xtr???
i wanted to buy the xtr, now i am confused!!!
i have yak 54 with 45cc on, and i want a sim for 3d traininig and i cant't decidei think they are very similar.

[BurkhardE]

Look here (http://www.w3g.us/Product.aspx/pid/21) for an excellent 50cc Yak for REFLEX.

If you have a Transmitter, Phoenix. If not, the others are all pretty decent.

what type of models are you flying?

XTR is good for Helis but utterly useless for planes
Aerofly pro deluxe is good for planes but utterly useless for helis

so saying either of those wins hands down with the information in the orriginal post is just not going to cut it.

having said that, phoenix has by far the best physics for both planes and helis. so given the choice between xtr and phoenix that you suggested imho you should buy phoenix its cheaper AND better.

As i said i have goldberg yak 54 74" with 45cc on, and i saw the yak 50cc for the reflex that BurkhardE recomended and it looks very good, but i still don't know, it's not about the price, i want the sim which is near real flying so...

[BurkhardE]

All the sims you consider are near real flying. All W3 models for Reflex are near real flying as well (did you view the video?). More is not possible...

I've had G3.5, phoenix and XTR.

I stayed with XTR as it has gliders. But phoenix I think was better slightly. If phoenix either added a glider modual, I would consider going back.

[Pinecone]

Phoenix has gliders. At least mine does. :)

[aci-bt]

yes i saw the video and it's very impresive

[aci-bt]

:eek:

Sorry, yes my mistake, I ment it doesnt have slope soaring scenery like XTR.

[aci-bt]

what's the difernce between the red and the blue dongle for the xtr???and i saw there is a slim version.

[BurkhardE]

Don't know the difference, maybe just two different colors. The current dongle version (for use with your transmitter) is called the SlimStick, as opposed to the new special controller called iVol. This has two ball-bearing sticks and there should be a transmitter module for it in the future.

[aci-bt]

i think thay should be the same!!!

[aci-bt]

can i use this dongle on the phoenix sim??? did any one tried???

[arukum17]

which sim is best for thermal gliders (histart or aerotowed type)?
sorry for the repeat post :)
