Phoenix Roam Free Mode

[Sk8ergrl]

Hi does Phoenix rc sim have a roam free mode? It would be good if you could fly to different places like in MS Flight Sim (Sorry to mention Microsoft) .

Love,Hugs

No. Its just within the bounds of what you can see. Its not designed for what your thinking of.

I do believe though you can make your own scenery - not sure how - though I'm sure someone will know.

You can make your own scenery - it's a bit involved though. You can download the software from the Phoenix site and someone on here has done some sceneries - can't remember who it was but I guess they may post up...

Thanks guys for all of your replies. My blade 400 came today so I'm very happy, don't worry I'm buying phoenix at the weekend and sorting out some lessons before I take that big step and starting it up.

Heya,

Congrats on getting your B400, and its good to see your waiting untill your getting phoenix, you will want to practice that for a while until your confident enough.

But get someone to look over your heli as there is no doubt some setting up required to do.

Regards
Callum

Was it no Chemicalbro that created his own fields as well as the heli's that he does?

Del has Chemicalbro uploaded his custom file to phoenix so you can roam around? Thanks for letting me know

Does anyone know if Phoenix comes with cable for my Spektrum DX6i tx?

[barney]

To roam around as far as I am aware you have to use 3D rendered fields (artificial not photos) which Phoenix does not support.

Real Flight has that feature but its not like a true Aircraft sim You can use follow mode..aircraft in front of you viewed from the tail. Cockpit view but its used for flying through obstacles in a 3D rendered field and for chase mode when online and the like..

[woody]

Yes, the standard cable should fit your Spektrum transmitter. Its only if you want one to fit Futaba or E Sky you need to pay extra for different cable

[Sk8ergrl]

Where's the best place to purchase phoenix 2.0 online that includes vat + p&p the cheapest the better

[woody]

Most places sell it like Fast Lad, Midland Helicopters, Skyline, Buzzflyer, phoenix-sim.com, Hobby Hanger, etc

They are all much of a muchness - if the sim is slightly less then the postage is more to make up for it. Ordering directly from phoenix may end up the cheapest.

chemicalbro (alan) has made some flying sites but i dont think he can make the ones you can fly from one to another,
you would need to ask if that can be done.
chemicalbro is the man if it can be done alan can do it.

just seen this...
it's impossible I'm afraid.

you are stuck within the confines of the cubic environment.
(basicly phoenix scenes are a cube with photos mapped to each face which you fly inside, and theres invisible depth and collision objects to allow you to hit things like trees etc)

as Barney says realflight can mix 3d models and panorama photos (but it is also limited to a certain area and is a bit of a gimmick to be honest)

phonix simulates RC flying and nothing else (like in real life with you standing in 1 spot and flying your model around the field)
