i have phoenix. good deal! you can plug your own transmitter right into the comp as long as its not set up at CCPM mixing. constant updates with new aircraft. you can fine tune your helis just the way you want them. planes too incase you ever wanna get into planes. has training videos and 3D demos. fun challenges like spot landings or precise autorotaion. great to fine tune skills. online so you can possiblty get help from people while flying with others. something i like the best is the "failures" you can set up servos to fail or engines to fail (GREAT FOR LEARNING AUTOS) it'll get you prepared for a lot of stuff when you truly get in the air.
