Can the USB adaptor that comes with phoenix be used as a regular game controller? It would be nice to use the USB adaptor as a regular game controller as well. Has anyone been able to do this?

But....aren't you selling your Phoenix sim??

You found one. I absolutely hate the physics in phoenix. Helicopters float in the air like a kite on a string. Flipping and rolling helis in this sim ins't even close and is almost laughable. It's takes a lot of tweaking of their pseudo physics to get a heli to "feel" right.

I'm not saying that others sims are way better or even much better at all, but Phoenix feels the more fake to me than other sims.

The two things I will give Phoenix is it's very optomized (was written very well) and the graphics are very pretty. Others sims are ugly and performance hogs when compared. That to me though isn't enough to keep me using this sim. I will probably be selling mine soon.

:hammer

Possibly, but that has nothing to do with the question...

Maybe you need to try it and report back if it worked or not.
