No complaints for either one and any potential complications will only arise when you want to get very technical and start seriously editing the models.

On the Phoenix plus side though, you can calibrate and edit your transmitter settings on the sim to match the exact set-up for your own aircraft, and so what your Tx does in real life, it does on the simulator.
Flying on a sim with the same Tx that you'll use at the field is definitely the better option, but the RealFlight 'Interlink' controller is perfectly realistic (manufactured by Futaba and modelled on one of their 8 channel Tx's).Ī nice touch with the RF one is that you have control over some simulator options, such as selecting model and flying site, from the controller buttons - you don't get this with Phoenix and it's a surprising annoyance after getting used to the RealFlight Interlink convenience! The Phoenix is now available with the Spektrum DX5e Tx.

Professional rc pilots would be very happy with the editing options, I think. Ability to edit aircraft and scenery: Both sims offer comprehensive editing capabilities that the beginner won't need.Similarly, there is a huge list of flying sites to choose from for the RealFlight sims, compared to Phoenix's.

Although Phoenix has well over 100 models now (and growing) the RF 'AddOn' CDs and Knife Edge forum member swap pages mean that a seemingly endless range of aircraft is available for the RF series of flight simulators. Choice of aircraft & flying sites: RF wins hands down on this one.My main gripe is that the Phoenix sim planes do seem to be all underpowered on the default settings, and this is more noticeable in the IC planes and gas turbine jets. Also, the Phoenix water-graphics are just outstanding, particularly the ripples created by helicopter downwash - very impressive! ( see the Sea Ranger screenshot above). The aircraft look slightly 'less' computer generated than the RF ones, and the lack of computer generated flying sites in Phoenix means that you're always flying in a photo-realistic place. Quality & realism: Both sims are excellent but for me Phoenix has the edge.They were good at the time of writing, but I accept that both sims have improved a lot since then.) ( Important: these pointers might not be valid with regard to later versions of both sims. I have and use both (RF G4.5 & Phoenix 3.0) so the differences outlined below are based on my own personal observations. Without going in to a detailed side-by-side review, I can offer a few pointers if you're having trouble deciding which rc flight simulator to buy.
