Is there anywhere int he US that I can get this shipped from? I would like to buy a copy so I can put a few hours in this weekend before I even attempt to fly my new helo.
Thanks,
-Tony
(Even if they're not in the US, i dont mind paying extra for the overnight shipping if you know of anyplace that'll do it)
No US distributer that will stock it ... long story. Order direct from Phoenix. Cheap shipping and usually only takes 3 days.

Heliguy is not a US company. They're in the UK. If you're going to be getting it from the UK anyway, why not just order direct? There's lots of anecdotal evidence that Realtime is pretty quick with the shipping.

HeliGuy offers it cheaper...$136 US versus $150 from Realtime. And they have excellent communication and shipping. Mine was shipped same day I ordered it.

Ordered it a week ago, Monday from www.phoenix-sim.com. It arrived on that Friday!!!! And I'm in the U.S. And it's fantastic. Full stop.

Honestly, I wanted to purchase it from the MFG but, I needed it by Friday (ok, need is the wrong word)
Heres the story. I just bought a helo, its going to be here tomorrow, or Friday, depends on USPS -- I was going to buy a copy of Reflex XTR, BUT, i read about Phoenix, and how it beats the crap out of XTR in its Physics. And how its is much more light weight of a program. Which I need to run it on my laptop (Demo runs great)
Ontop of all of this, I typically have most of my weekends booked up. So this weekend, is going to be one of the few where I can actually sit down and fly the sim for many hours. And maybe, just maybe, by next weekend.. I'll be able to enjoy all this darn money I spent on my helo, just long enough, to spend some more on parts. :)
Long story, to just say, I ordered it used today, from a guy nice enough to run it to UPS and ship it second day air, so it'll be here Friday.

Yes, I am excited.. and yes.. I am scared, I dont want to wreck my new baby. :)
If you just got the heli it will take some time to rebuild it and check everything.
