Great idea! What simulator program would you recommend?
ORIGINAL: ArtW
Do you have a simulator? When I teach people to fly, I encourage them to NOT buy a physical model but rather buy the simulator and practice. You can save enormous sums of money, learn to actually fly, and then buy a plane or heli that will last more than a single flight. Get a RealFlight simulator on mode 2. Practice until you can fly. Then buy a collective pitch helicopter (MCPX2) and you will actually be able to learn how to do it.
I went with you guys's advice and skipped the futureshop crap. I posted the same question on a number of forums and got pretty much the same answer.
But this forum was the only one that didn't ban me lol... the rest thought I was spam.
I guess i'll stay on this one for now.
