Default RE: High wind technique

I made a quick video on Realflight showing a cross wind landing. I added the remote control to the screen so you can see what my control inputs are as it goes into the flare. I used a 15 knot crosswind blowing almost directly across the runway. Most winds will not be this bad but it shows that it can be done with some practice. Start using the wind function of your simulator to learn the proper cross wind landing techniques without the fear of destroying your model.
