It will be nice to see an unbiased review of this sim. My opinion of Phoenix is somewhat clouded by a group of shills that have been pushing it in various forums
http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=611894 http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=586722 $150 is not exactly "cheap" for a "unproven" sim as the other commercial flight sims may come with free add-ons and other features at a slightly higher price. I have not seen many user videos on it either. |

I've avoided any sort of review on those "other" forums because of all the crap and bickering that goes on. If anyone's really interested, I've got a 1-week old copy of PhoenixRC running right here. Any specific questions? Or do you just want comparisons with G3.5, FSOne, etc...?
I'm not a horribly talented writer, so a full, magazine style review is out of the question, but I'd be happy to answer any questions that might pop up.... -Case

Hi all,
I made a vid tonight of Phoenix with the extra, nothing flash no editing! just huckin about, I used fraps to record it, Ended up with 1.5gig file!! I used windowz movie maker to crunch it down to 22 megs for putefile. The end result is pretty grainy cos of the compression, but is still very watchable! I will make a few more for you later Jim.
