Dear Seniors,
I am a beginner RC Hobbyist.
I am an Engineer, working in Kuwait and from Trichy, Tamilnadu . I need your suggestions to decide which of the following simulator to buy ?
Great Planes RealFlight 6.5 Airplane w/Interlink Mode 1

Phoenix R/C Pro Simulator V4.0
http://www.hobby-lobby.com/phoenix_r_c_pro_simulator_v4.0_1039852_prd1.htm?pSearchQueryId=4191972
I have FUTABA 14SGA Mode 1 Transmitter and scratch building pusher jets from the plans found in www.parkjets.com.
Yet to maiden my first plane which was delayed for the last two weeks due to poor weather conditions.
Building and flying a parkjet is not the way to go for a beginner. Start with a beginners plane.
phoenix 4 the physics is very close to real rc planes so is the feel of flying u should go with phoenix

Thanks for your comments. The joy of building myself is also important to me and I am happy with the parkjets but I will fly these later. To learn flying I am going for a Sim and also ordering Bixler 2 or something similar from HK.
I welcome your suggestion on a good beginner planes from HK.
I personally have bought AXN from HK and learned flying on it. If your budget permits buy a multiplex easystar 2 else bixler/axn from hk will do good too.
It is also important for you to find an instructor..that will save you from setup issues and initial crashes. Do not fly alone initially
Also I have a purchased copy of Realflight 5.5 and fly easystar on it. I can say the physics is good as I have flown the same plane in real too. Cant comment on phoenix
An update
I bought Realflight 6.5 and Multiplex Easystar.
Yet to order electronics from Hobbyking for easy star.
