Status: online 		hi ppl,

I just bought a 4#3Q because a like its scale appearance and was impressed by its performance on some youtube videos. The guy flew it for me in his shop and it worked just fine. I brought it home only to realise I truly suck at flying this thing.

Anyway, what rc simulator would you recommend for me to practice on?

Are there any basic setup procedures I should know? (apart from what's mentioned in the manual) I only have experience with toy grade 3ch coaxials.

thanks

So many to choose from

The good news is that I can actually hover the thing now. Only took me a few days and 1 broken tail rotor. I'm still uncoordinated when I try turns.
