I have tried both modes, corded and wireless and although the corded allows you to remove the frequency module and the battery lasts a lot longer, having the tx wireless is simply wonderful. It works with most of the main simulators, and you can also plug in a receiver and go wireless. It will let you plug in a 3.5mm plug from your DX7 trainer port, in fact it comes with that wire, and then into a USB port via a micro USB connector. I tried the Cap the other day, I added 2 KG weight and it got a lot more realistic in the hover because it got a lot harder!! I do agree the planes are set up either too overpowered or too underpowered, too light or too heavy, but they can be adjusted for more realism, but then you did pay for realistic models that don't have to be adjusted for realism.įor a USB adapter try the Hobbyking Wireless 9 in 1 Adapter. Rob try adding some weight to the planes, they do stall but the 3D planes are all too lightly built and overpowered. I will prob buy Heli-x next, because during winter I cannot have too many sims. The free version lets you play it for 10 min at a time then you have to wait a minute a reselect a heli.
You can try it for free then it's about $85. I dont know about other sims except heli-x. The flybarless electric helis are way faster in cyclic and collective so I can practice with a very fast sim heli and when I fly IRL my machines seem to be moving in slow motion and I'm way ahead of them. As far as realism I find that the low end nitro flybar helis are very realistic but not very fast in control response. Then I upgraded to Professional level for another 65 euros and by choosing one particular scenery and ThreeDee heli I suddenly got 60fps which is buttery smooth to look at and I was preparing to buy a 100 video card but now I dont hve to just yet. I was getting 25-30fps which was the minimum with out eye strain. I bought Aerofly 7 Standard and was pretty happy with it for 39 euros or $51US.
