• • HANGAR 9 FS ONE SIM • •

There are some great new simulators coming onto the market including this, the FS One from Hangar 9. As with most of the new generation, the FS One makes use of photo-real sceneries, both for indoor and outdoor venues. A choice of helicopters includes the Elite Blade CP for indoor flying, plus the Voyager 50 and Vigor 90 for the more adventurous. As you would expect, there's also a great selection of aeroplanes.
Unlike some of the other simulators, you have the option of receiving a nice-quality Mode 2 transmitter box that plugs into your PC via a USB port (if you'd prefer to use your existing radio instead, that can be done) as part of the package. This will make the simulator more attractive to potential beginners who want to get some idea of how difficult the hobby is before committing to a real helicopter.
The FS One simulator retails at £125.00 without the Tx, and can be purchased from Horizon Aero dealers - call 01279 641097 or visit www.horizonhobby.co.uk for more information.
