I'd love to try it with Skype sometime. Running Skype natively might give me the option of being able to converse and sim while running Phoenix in Parallels on my Mac. It all depends on how much processor drain Skype would add. I sure can't do it with Teamspeak in Parallels.

hi i currently use realflight and it went out on me today i was just wondering where can i order phoenix?

DominicD · 04-02-2009, 07:53 AM

I think heli guy in the Uk is always the cheapest.

mvanover · 05-20-2009, 02:38 PM

I'm a bit late on the thread, but I just ordered my copy last week direct from Phoenix - about $120 shipped. Their daily US price changes based on the exchange rate.

miguelcpp · 05-23-2009, 03:48 PM

Hey where can i found info of helifreak sessions on multiplayer?

DominicD · 05-23-2009, 05:15 PM

The prestige!

There's really no benefit other than it's more focused on a specific area of interest than a forum is.

DominicD · 06-10-2009, 08:56 AM

The group served more purpose in the days before the official custom flying site creator.

Just got phoenix and I love it. I can fly it muchbetter than RF3.5 it seems so much more real. I used Slys blade 400 and it was just like flying my 400. I dont know if it is because I am using my 9303 or if the sim is that much better. Anyway I am a new member to the phoenix Sim and very happy about it.

Welcome to the world of Phoenix, ENJOY

Just have been baned from session. But why? I was too good for you??

noobish

TheBum · 07-05-2009, 08:40 PM

Were you banned or did you just get kicked off? If you're causing too much latency with your connection, you can get kicked off. It happened to me once.

eDeK · 07-06-2009, 05:56 AM

I was banned not kicked.

Flying Foot Doc · 02-04-2010, 10:34 PM

Any active Pheonix groups out there?

WJackson · 03-21-2010, 07:53 PM

Still alive and kicking!

heli-insane · 08-15-2010, 10:40 PM

After wanting to get into RC heli;s for many years i finally decided i would take the steps to getting into it. First step was buying a cheap novus fp and a walkera hm ufly. At first i was to scared to even attempt hovering them. So i decided to do a little more research and found that most heli pilots where saying to invest in a good sim and they recommended phoenix. 3 months ago i purchased the sim and found a guy from a different site offering online lessons with phoenix and skype so i took him up on the offer. First lessons was setup up and some excercises. Learnt how to hover and do tail in and out!! Slow pirouettes and some basic flying. Today was lesson 3 for me and seeing as my mentor is not a 3d guy and a scale flyer he asked me to sow him if i had mastered the lessons that he taught me 2 week ago. I had not only learnt them i had mastered them. I have been dabbling in some 3d flying as well. Inverted hovering,loops, rolls, and some other basic 3d. I have tried over and over to learn some of phoenixs more advanced maneuvers but i am finding it quite hard to learn seeing as they dont really break the trick down into parts to learn, so i can progress into them. I will join this group in hopes of finding a new mentor that possibly could help me out with advancing my flying skills! thxs H-I

Scraggy · 08-16-2010, 06:25 AM

hmm,

Nice post and Iam sure there is some way to advance your skills, and i di have every asperation, to sit down and do some flying tutorials as i belive i can bust a move or two, i have now decided to stop flying planes so much and focus on my Helicopter flying skills, as i would like to compete at some point. i have just finished building a new 50 and have every intention to use that bird to take my flying skills to the next level.

As a profeestional instructor for a well known organisation i think you have hit on quite an intersting idea. the question is can i teach you anything new or vise versa. perhaps i should get that callender installed on my on forum so that flying shedule could be created.

But before that lets define 3D. the way i see it is there are some main dicaplines, and please i would as much as anbody like some clarification on them.

1. Scale
2. Sport / Aerobatic
3. F3C ?
4. 3D

I read all the mags and freaquent all the sites but still dont totally now what is classed as a 3D move and what is not.

well lets see what happens

cnicholls · 05-27-2011, 09:12 AM

Hello Phoenix guys. Im new in this sim and im very happy
