Flight Simulators

[KenC]

To be honest with Phoenix being free with updates as above , I see no reason to buy Real Flight . Yes I would like to have a wireless USB link to my transmitter, but that i8s another purchase extra.  Quite happy to save my pennies for real flight at a club site.

Can anyone tell me if you can use an orange wireless usb dongle with phoenix?

I use a Frsky dongle thats binds to my tx like a normal receiver .Works great.

 

I imagine the Orange would work in a similar way,you`ll need to download the emulator and launch the sim from there ..

 

Instructionns  and files are on this page:

I downloaded Phoenix (from the site I just gave) to my Win 10 gaming PC a month or so ago- works perfect! Someone on RCME gave me the link to the dongle. I'll post the link in a mo.

For anyone thinking of trying Phoenix RC Sim , do it  and follow the suggestions from Paul here . I ordered this dongle /cable package from Flyingtech  on Saturday when Paul suggested it worked fine. Today is Tuesday and I have received it in the post  ( normal postage of around £3)  and flown with it this afternoon.  Thank you Paul for your help in suggesting this .... this puppy now has two tails 🙂

I was told about the Phoenix site and Flying Tech by someone on this forum a month or so ago, so I was more than pleased to pass the info on.  For me, the money saved from buying Real Flight can go on another model.
