  • FMS compared to XTR

    Hi,
    Has anyone used FMS sim then gone over to Reflex XTR? and if so how does it compare. I reckon XTR is better but by how much?
    Cheers

    Hi

    I have only briefly used FMS, but I am learning on XTR and the difference IMHO is huge. It is like going from you old Atari to a XBOX 360.

    XTR is definitely worth the money.

          even down to the price tag........
          -I don't crash, I just land with enthusiasm.

          A couple of 600n's with stuff on them that makes them fly..
          A 550 fbl with even more stuff on it to make it fly
          And a Mars 470 which needs stuff putting on it to make it fly

          And a DX8 too

            FMS is more of a game than a realistic flight sim, XTR is a lot more realistic in it's physics

                  Looks interesting although I am happy with my XTR at the mo... would need to be very very good to better it.
                  I have tried and owned a few simulators, FMS, Tru-flite, Aerofly Pro, XTR and XTR is certainly in a completely different league. I though FMS was pretty useless compared to Tru-flight and this in turn was bettered by Aerofly Pro...
                  Basically the newer they got the better.
