Well, I think peaple from OMP should be better informed about what happens in real world. G2, AFP and AFPD are all cracked ( Reflex and G3 not, at least still not ). To fly G2 you need a interface for your radio, this interface is not the same used by FMS. In Brazil some peaple produces this interface and sell the interface specific for your radio ( sq Futaba, round Futaba, JR etc) for 50 Reais ( about 20 US Dollars ) and buyer receives for free 8 CDs with G2 plus with all five adds plus AFPD .

AFP also works with this cable, with just two small pieeces of software, VSPDXP http://www.eltima.com/products/vspdxp/ that can be found in internet and a dongle emulator, DongleEmu Pro, that also can be find easily in Internet. But easy of all is AFPD, it works with any cable, including the simple cable for FMS. AFPD was cracked and this crack as well the program itself can be easily found in Internet.

I think the potential scale of this market is much bigger then people from OMP or Ikarus thinks, if these simulators costs 1/4 of its actual price the sales would be at least 4 times bigger. See the case of Brazil, that has tens of thousands RC Airmodel aficionados but the average wages are not more then 500 USD per month. How can you imagine someone will spend almost half of you month salary to buy a sim? These people flyes with Brazilian engines and models that costs much less than OS engines or Top Flite Planes, but they doesn't produces RC sims, so every brazilian RC aficionado I know have pirated sims copies in their computers. The same must occour in countries like Poland, Turkey, Argentine, Russia etc.. Countries that have similar economic situation. I'm pretty sure that if these sims weren't so high priced the sales volume would be much higher, everybody prefer a original product, with original cables, manuals, CDs and even boxes than a pirated software.
