RE: Best Simulator Software

G2 did me well, but just got Phoenix and am blown away, tons better. Tried Realflight G3/3.5 at a mates place, and thought it was a step backwards from G2 in realism, just the graphics were better. ...

It is fine with...

RE: TT39H Engine hassles...

RE: Futaba 6XAS okay to use for heli?
