Hi, Let me start off by saying I'm new to RC Heli's and I just traded off my RC18T for a Blade CP. I've been reading that a Simulator & Training stand are some good tools to to start learning on. I've decided to go for the Reflex XTR Simulator for now. I'm just wondering if my PC is up to the task of running it. I have a Athlon XP 2500, 512mb Ram, XFX Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 (128mb) video card, 200g hard drive. Will it work? And the other question is what transmitter plug to order? It's the Stock BCP controller, do I order the Futaba Square or the Futaba/Hitec Round version? I haven't received the Heli yet, so I don't know what plug to order.
Thanks,
Rich

to answer your first question... Your computer should be fine to run this. I have a computer much less than yours, and it works fine...
To answer your second question... You might have to get another trainsmitter. The blade CP uses a CCPM system, and its built into the trainsmitter... However, reflex uses a MPM type. I'm not sure if there is a way around this or not. If there isn't, you could always get a cheap 6 channel radio that will work fine.
Is it possible to use reflex with a CCPM programed radio?

Thanks for the info, I ended up going for the Real Flight G3 since it comes with a controller. And am training on the "Watt Not" electric heli. Was going to go for the Reflex XTR, but that's a little out of my budget if I had to buy a transmitter with it.
