    Hey dudes.

    I haven't upgraded yet and probably won't for a while, due to what I have heard.

    If you have upgraded, let us know what u think compared to version 4.

    cheers

      Yeah I didn't like the the first update to 5v but now it's pretty good. I think it feels a bit better than before and now you can go a bit lower to the ground before the Shadow Demons take your heli. I almost wanted to go back to the old version but now it's all good.

      I recommend the upgrade.

      I've had a few issues... but there support was awesome and had it solved within 30min of emailing them. They literally got back within 5 min.

      Still trying to tune the heli tho.. very touchy and way over powered.

      I absolutely hated Phoenix 5. I downloaded it the day it came out, and was very disappointed. I hear they have fixed it somewhat, but I`m going to stick with 4.

      I may try it again after they get the bugs knocked out of it. For now though, I have Phoenix 4 and RF7

      I didn't start using 5 until 5i but I like it fine now. I was close to buying another sim but they took care of it before I could decide which to buy

      5.0n out now, previous updates haven't done much for me and as a result I purchased RF7 and love it. I'll download 5.0n now and see what it's like, but going to have to be pretty blood good for me to go back to using it as my primary sim now.

      Me too... except im at RF6.5 but i gotta admit the feel of the helicopers is awesome.. Graphics are good too but for me, its how it flys in the sim > how it looks in the sim. But having said that RF looks better too...
