I just got my copy of Phoenix yesterday. I love it.
I doubt I will be using either of my 2 copies of G3/G3.5 much longer.
Anyone else using Phoenix? If not, what the hell are you waiting for?

One thing that is really cool, is that some of the flying sites have water in them. You can select a heli or a plane with floats, and choose to land on the water if you'd like. Another cool thing, is that when you hover just over the water, the water intreracts with the downwash of the heli!

I'll work on posting a few of my own screen caps of this awesome flight sim.

Here is a video of the Knight50 3D from the website.

The sim is coming out with very frequent updates. Many new models are being added. Phoenix will even create custom models for you, based on request. You can take pics of your own heli, and they replicate it. How sweet is that?

Actually, yeah. I have 2 copies. one G3, the other 3.5. I'm liking Phoenix so much, I think they both should go.

One thing I really like about Phoenix right now, is all of the heli's are extremely stable with the default settings. This allows me, for when I am learning insane new 3D stunts, I can focus on what my fingers need to do to complete the stunt.
Once Ive learned it, I can change the settinngs to feel just slightly less stable, then learn to fly the trick that way, and transitioning from different orientations.

a new free update which will be available in a few weeks v.1.04, corrects some of the few defincies this sim has, and will make this FOR SURE the best flying sim on the market.
