Hello Everyone... I know that the following post might be some what of a unusual question, but I am not able to go out to my local flying field as much as I wish, and I want to be able to practice at home. I asked the question below on different sites on the internet and no one seems to be able to answer my question. So I thought I might have better luck here. I am looking for a RC Flight Simulator for my Mac. Read The Following Info for the Question I have been putting on other sites.... Thank You For Your Time and Help

Ok.. So I have had a Mac Laptop for quite awhile and I used to have RealFlight G3.5 (which I still have the Transmitter/USB Controller) on an old PC that broke down. So I was just wanting some info on something.

I really would like to get a R/C Flight Simulator for my Mac. Mainly to practice my 3D/Aerobatics with. Does anyone have any good Simulators I should look into getting for my Mac. I heard that there are few R/C Flight Simulators for Macs, but I thought I would try to find something. I Googled R/C Flight Simulator for Mac and came up with a program called AeroFly ? I was hoping someone could help me out on finding a good simulator for my Mac....

Thanks

P.S. - If someone does recommend a program to use I have a couple questions... Where Do I Download it, How Much is It, and can I use my old Real-Flight USB Controller/Transmitter with it ???

Thanks Again,
Cole Mayfield

Cole, here you go: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXXUS5&P=0

They have one that comes with a controller and one that lets you use your own. We have a new iMac at home and I am thinking about purchasing this simulator myself.

Another option is to use the bootcamp utility to partition your hard drive and install Windows so you can run Realflight. You can boot it up in Windows or OS-X. I personally can't stand the thought of running Windows on anything else at home again though. I have to put up with it enough at work.

This comparison table may help you:

ChuckW: Hey Chuck !!! Thanks for the Info on the AeroFly... I am thinking about just going and purchasing the whole thing with the Controller... I think it would be easier... I had to boot camp my Mac for school, and the second I got out of the school program I had to use it in, I deleted it... I hope to see you at the field sometime soon, possibly this weekend at the Swap Meet/Fun-Fly.. Sunday 4/25 ?

LNEWQBAN: Thanks for the Table... I used it to do some requirement checks with the Mac... Thanks Again...

Thanks Guys

FRMPilotColeMayfield if your going to go with AeroFly, be advised that there is an AeroFly v5 that Tower is supposed to release very soon

RC4LIFE: Thanks for the Info... Is it going to "better" I'm mainly looking for a good selection of aerobatic planes, and something that is very comparable to flying a real 3D / Aerobatic Plane... Do you have any recommendations ??? Thanks for your Time...
