Its monsoon again and I'm looking for a cheap flight simulator software.

If you have a radio, this should work good.

why dont you download realfligtt?

hi but you cannot download realflight as it is a software you have to buy

subbu

Thats 1 problem I see, Books that are sold in India(generally) have less price compared to US called "Eastern Economy edition etc.". Wish that applied to softwares as well.

With avg Indian income being hard enough to afford a good PC itself, let alone the Software.

hmmm.. would u guys support piracy?

but this has a Stereo/mono connector on other end (radio side?).. my radio has a round connector. it in fact comes with a USB connector to PC.. which SIM will be better then?(it should detect the port n radio.)

I didnt say that. Thats why I use FMS - More Linux flavours - OpenOffice and stuff you know 

hey Flying Model Simulator requires parallel port.. thats difficult on new pcs.. how do u manage?

Using this, but didnt buy from there.:

One option is to build something like this and go with SmartProPlus.

I tried this with my RDS8000. It worked, but in g4.5 the sticks never centered. Even in the calibration menu, after I move the stick left and right and after centering the stick, the calibrations meter some times used to show + 3and some times -4 etc. Difficult for hovering Helis and it was not worth all that effort in my case. I tried every trick but all in vein.

Smart pro plus only works with FMS if you have to make it work with anyother software like realflight, phoenix etc, you will have to kill the CCPM funciton in your TX

Hellyflyer

But normally the CCPM function in the TX is not used for sims to start with.  We setup the model either as a non-CCPM heli, or just an airplane. 

Yup that can also be a possiblity
