Esky Honeybee FP on Phoenix

[erisaman]

Hi - I've tried doing a search but failed to find what I need.

I'm a complete air-head when it comes to computers and downloads etc, so I've had a pal come in to install my new Phoenix V2. I have also taken delivery, today, of an Esky Honeybee FP - this is on an Esky TX and is 2.4Ghz.

Can someone please advise if the HBFP can be downloaded from Phoenix, and please advise as to what site to go to.

Apologies if my 'language' is not computer lingo - I'm a simpleton.

Many thanks.

I cant help but I would also like to fly my 4#3B in phoenix.

Im practicing using a blade400 at the moment as it seems to be the heli most people buy after practicing with a smaller heli.

Hi,I just checked the Phoenix website (http://www.phoenix-sim.com/models.htm) and the Honeybee FP doesn't appear to be listed as an available model, so you need to find a similar sized electric fixed pitch helicopter to practice with.

I don't know if the 'training' models on Phoenix are fixed or variable.You should also check YouTube because I found some awesome beginners guides ont here which I found have really helped - i.e.[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDep7-bI3Zc[/ame]

Don't mention it... and don't worry because 3 weeks ago I didn't know a swashplate from a landing skid!HBHB

Thanks for that - it was all so new to me yesterday and I thought I had to have the right model - but the Spark fills the bill nicely. I soon discovered that, although the (Esky) 2.4GHz TX was set up correctly, the AIL was working opposite to what I needed i.e. left on the aileron stick and the hel banked to the right, and vice versa. I changed the AIL setting on the TX and that has cured the problem. I now need to find a means to change it on my sim - I've found the 'settings' button and 'your controls', but I'm still not sure as to what to do next. At least I'm now flying on the sim, and, as I'll be away next week, I'll get it all sorted before my HB's maiden flight .

Thanks for your help.

to change it in phoenix go to your controls. click edit and in the menu put an "X" in the invert box(airl) if its already there take it out.

Thank you very much - just done it - accessed 'controls', followed your instructions and bingo, all sorted . I'm not a moaner, but have to tell you this - I'm in the middle of a massive migraine and half the screen is 'missing' (as with this keyboard) - but, could I wait for the migraine to pass before sorting it? No way - I had to do it there and then.

Many thanks again - Dave.
