what wind settings would you advise for a novice who is still learning?

[Tony Brazao]

As per the title. I can happily hover & land, would like to add some air movement to simulate a calm day with a light breeze, any advice welcomed

well in real life there is always a breeze exsample if the ground wind is 5mph the wind speed at 50feet would be 10mph so a happy medium would be to set it at 7mph ,i use realflight and have mine set at 7mph it dose give you that bit extra life like feel

Thanks 4 the replies. How about gust and thermal settings?

Phoenix has its own pre sets and you would do a lot worse than to set it to "Brisk day" which is a fairly typical sort of UK day.

Well it is when it aint freezing ya nuts off or snowing like mad

I find the wind settings in Phoenix are difficult to get on with - in real life, you can feel the direction of the wind but the only indication in Phoenix is the windsock (and the way the heli behaves!). For this reason, I just tend to turn the wind settings off as I forget which way the wind's blowing!

Hope this helps
