Best Sim for a Raptor 50 Newbie?

[Titan50]

Hi All,

My '50' kit is arriving on Monday so getting pretty excited. Mack is going to get sick of me popping around for advice!

Thought I would have a look thru the 'sim' posts to see which one is recommended for Raptor 50 training but the forums concentrate mainly on the pros/cons of the various brands.

Any idea what a good sim would be to get to help me get some '50' pre flight training in?

TIA.

Cheers,
Steve.

on here the answer is pretty much always a Knight 50 or Phoenix

in your case it's Phoenix

... but Phoenix is the best sim by far, I think even smoothound likes it

Reflex has a rather good Raptor choice,Phoenix has one called the buzzard but it is a Raptor 50...Phoenix is cheaper than Reflex but they are similar in quality

Anyway why would you want a Raptor on a sim when Phoenix has a Knight

[Ade_Law]

well done!! managed to get phoenix and knight in one post!

[Gaza07]

[Thomas]

[Ade_Law]

the one your on about does but phoenix nights was a comedy prog as in night time

[Thomas]

... but the Phoenix Knight is a bit of a joke too

[Titan50]

Thanks guys, think I get the gist of the banter! (Phoenix is the sim choice but why am I not flying a Knight?!)

[Ade_Law]

the knight on phoenix flies more like a raptor than the raptor on XTR :-)

Thats confused me

We must stop promoting the Phoenix Sim and the wonderful Knight 50 helicopter that now also comes in a cheaper Sport version thats cheaper than a Raptor 30 and as well specced as a Raptor 50 Se..

ALso ive heard that the nice people at Phoenix are about to release a stunning free upgrade..

Now i will be using Phoenix all night or is that Knight
