Title: Flite Sim
Post by: skyhawk newbie on October 25, 2010, 13:10:05 PM
Hi to All..

I'm after a cheap flite Sim...
Doesn't have to be fancy or anything...

Must work with a older LapTop running with Windows XP...


Let me know what you have ,or a link to buy one ( E-Bay ? )

Regards Sean

couple of free ones to look at, you'll need to google them I don't have the links on my work PC!

Slope Soaring Sim (SSS)
CRRC Sim

I have Phoenix and Reflex Xtra. Neither is particularly good for gliders. The two free ones above are better in terms of physics, but poorer in graphics, (bit like 80's arcarde games!)

I'm sure others will have their own favourites

I'm after one of those one where you plug a Tx in to your Lap Top or PC and you get a disc with it.........

Just make sure you get the same mode as your current transmitter. They are sold as either a mode 1 or mode 2 TX. Not sure if they can be changed over
