Phoenix 2.5a (beta) review

Sound engine not OK at all... at low RPMs it sounds more real than v2.0 but as soon RPMs go up nitro engines sound almost like an weird electric heli

A top 10 tip before installing the beta is to make a complete copy of your current working version. This way you can install the new one, and still be able to use your original at the same time should the beta in its early stages casue you problems.

And how do you do that? Do you just make a copy of the entire Phoenix folder? (I know very little about Windows as I only ever use it for Phoenix!)

Yes, just copy the entire folder, I've transfered Phoenix between computers using a USB drive to do just this and it works fine.

I think from memory it saves itself into two different locations so you may need to save both?. On my PC its on

C:\Program Files\PhoenixRC

and

C:\Documents and Settings\Admin\My Documents\PhoenixRC

Yes this is correct just as if you uninstall phoenix apart from add and remove programs you must delete these folders too,or copy them depending on what your doing.
