  • Please help !!!

    Have got Phoenix Version 2.00q from new. loaded straight from disk. Noticed that a lot of new model downloads have come out in the last six months, so decided to download them. For some reason my PC is not picking up 'automatic updates' which is a massive pain in the ar*e. Anyway, I have been advised to download the latest version of Phoenix in order to fly the new models and it just ain't working....

    I hit the 'download now' link on the site, and it asks me to 'run or save'. I have always saved the downloads to a 'downloaded updates' folder in Phoenix RC, but after that nothing happens. I boot up Phoenix, and it is not recognising any updates. I have followed instructions to the letter of the law, so what in christs name is going wrong!!!

    Totally hacked off, as the Trex 250 is out there, and I can't fly the bleeding thing yet!!

    Any budding PC types out there who might have an 'inkling' as to what might be wrong with either the PC, software or the operating idiot (me)

    Cheers....

        if you redownload save to your desktop.

        have you checked in mydocuments/my downloads folder or you could run a search for " phoenixRC_25k_update.exe "

          checked all my docs folders, cant find anything that resembles what you've described mate.... shame, cos I know its there somewhere (took over 1hr 30 mins to download the update)

          anyway, will try again, and as you have advised, I will save the download to my desktop, and see what happens.

          PM you later to give you the latest news,

          many thanks in the meantime matey

              Sorted...

              rebooted PC, downloaded 2.5k to my desktop, then moved into the downloaded updates folder. Went to C: Drive, program files and found the phoenixnstallerupdate.exe which enabled me to eventually download the updated version.

              Appreciate all your help 'unleashed'...

              Thanks again mate..
