If I were you I'd go and buy a XTR Reflex. ;)

....But can your Reflex do this?

[blax1]

Great Screen shot!!! :cool:

Hey Td, have you flown at the night circus?
I think I've hit the Ferris Wheel about 14 times LOL :D :D

[tdswan]

I haven't seen the night circus yet. I haven't really looked at night flying on the sim until last night. Then I got to thinking..."I don't think Reflex has night flying." Then I thought...."Cuzz uses Reflex." Then I got thinking "I should post something to pick on him!"
Sorry, Cuzz. Had to be done!

[bboy]

Phoenix has night flying ":D"

[DVS]

Nice that looks so cool :)

[vapochilled]

Cuzz turns the lights out and plays in the dark, does that count ;)

[R50]

The Realflight 3.5 has night flying too, or atleast mine does!

[tdswan]

Have you guys notice that Cuzz doesn't have anyting to add to this thread?

Cuzz, I hope I haven't hurt your feelings! We still love ya, man!

[heli-cuzz]

Lmao

I leave my feelings on the pillow when I get out of bed in the morning.

I don't need a sim for nite-flite. I just do it for real right in my backyard. :p

[heli-cuzz]

Caliber30 in a hover :D

[team222badbrad]

I'm thinking now would be a good time to sell my realflight g3.5!

:D

[heli-cuzz]

I'm thinking now would be a good time to sell my realflight g3.5!

And buy a Reflex.

RealFliteG4, what's next... G4.5 :rolleyes:

[R50]

Oh don't you worry there'll be a Reflex 2. I bet they're working on it right now.

[olhippie]

This may be a stupid question, but why does the G4 have the thottle hold switch moved to the front instead top right as usual? They have a knob there. My G3.5 has the normal switch position. Just curious.

Thats right fellas!!!! Eat your heart out!

FMS in all it's glory.


Don't hate the player :cool:

I hear their working on an upgrade for that! you'll need to buy ball for the mouse ;)

[jschief]

I just upgraded to G4 and I like it alot.

They improved the programming so G4 runs better than g3.5 did on my computer. I thought I would have to improve my computer before I could use alot of the new features on g4.

The complaints I have is I can not use any of the older realflight upgrades, so I lost alot of the older planes. Also where the throttle hold is placed is another complaint.

I flew all weekend and I could not find any other complaints. Heli's use to start to act funny if you ran close to empting the tank out, but this seemed to be fixed.

[Dudley]

I just got the G4 too. I'm a newbie who hasn't flown helis b4 and gee it's really tough! I'm finding that a little bit of cyclic goes a looong way! LOL

I have and issue with my mode 1 controller. The tx gadget displayed is mode 2, same goes with the tutorials. Anyone else seen this?
