Ok got my copy of Phoenix last week and LOVE it! I mean I don't just like it.. I LOVE IT!


I'm flying the Blade400 mostly *since that's what I own* but the below noted issues are with any model I chose to fly....


A) I've noticed that on my throttle that it's ZERO until about 1/4 stick then it's FULL... pitch is linear but throttle doesn't appear to be. I'm using the same "model/profile" as I am on my Blade 400 but it doesn't react like my Blade400 does. Is this because it's a sim and can't accurately depict the throttle curve or am I missing a setting?

B) When I got Down Elevator and Left Aileron it is somehow connected to the Throttle as well. If I do a left aileron roll and add any forward/down it cuts the throttle. I can go into the "controller" settings where there is a "Graphic Representation" of the inputs I can see what's happening.

Any ideas/suggestions?

You are referring to the Rotor Governor. This activates at any throttle input over 25%, just like a real-life model with this setup.

If your model in real-life has no governor then youll want to uncheck the Rotor Governor Enabled setting under the Simulation > Edit Aircraft > Physical menu.

As for your other issue, if you open the System > Your Transmitter menu and move the throttle stick, which bars on the display move?

You might be better off contacting support@phoenix-sim.com, they reply very quickly.

Thanks! I'm firing off an email to them right now. Not sure WHY I didn't try that sooner *DUH*

Well here's the scoop :)

My silly controller was simply out of calibration. HeliMix walked me through the steps and it works like a CHARM!! :)
