Hello all,

I haven't read the entire thread yet, but will do so. I just ordered RFG3 last night. I'm just about to start experimenting with 3D flying and am hoping to minimize repair costs. I voted the second option on the poll. I've always felt it would be fun to have a sim, but didn't want to pay what I felt was a grossly inflated price.

Now, however, when weighing the cost of the sim against the cost of a couple of bad dirt naps, it doesn't seem so bad. For what it's worth, the going rate is indeed $200, but Tower is throwing in a $20 merchandise rebate and still allowing the use of a $20 off code (ad number 014ML), which takes the final cost down to $160. I know that doesn't include shipping, but since I was placing the order anyway (props and such), the incremental cost of adding the sim was truly only $160. Oh, and I don't know if this is anything new, but they are also including Add Ons Volume One at no extra charge. I suspect that is a common enticement offered, but don't know that for sure.
