Default RE: flight sim

The flight sim that comes with my esky honey bee (FP) gives me a good starting point, but the helis in there are all nitro and CP so the throttle response is quite a bit more sensitive and the heli is quite a bit more stable. A real micro electric heli like the honey bee is much more willing to drift fore/aft and sideways and at a much faster rate. I can fly circuit 8s in the flight sim quite smoothly but I'm still slowly starting to try it with the honey bee in real life. So I'd say the flight sim is a good tool to refresh the skills and to experiment new maneouver, but by no means an indication of the same skills level I'll have in real life. Just keep that in mind for the first flight. I keep going back and forth between real heli and flight sim.
