How are you flying, what kinda plane are you flying, and what are you doing when crashing? I took the lessons an instructor would have you do IRL and did them on the sim for at least a half an hour a night. Dont get on and treat it like a computer game and fly around all crazy. My first day out to the field after 3-4 months sim time (I woulda been ready imo at 2 months but it was over the winter) I was able to take off fly the circuit and land with no more then a couple instructions from the guys helping me out. I tried learning several years ago without a sim and had bad results. Even with an instructor I kept doing enough damage each trip out to make the next trip take to long and I could never get in enough stick time to get the muscle memory down. This time the muscle memory was pre learned and all that I really need to do was learn to adjust for perspective and the differences of flying IRL. IMO when you dont need to think about which way to move the sticks anymore then you are ready to hit the field. Its a good idea to talk to an instructor before and during your sim training though just like you would IRL so you are not learning bad habbits on the sim.
