The perspective is very strange and since these are so light, they take just tiny little inputs on the controls to change direction
TINY little inputs...EXACTLY. When you get to the real thing, remember that. Over controling is a common problem for beginners. It's even more crucial to be light on the sticks when you advance to intermediate level planes and beyond.
When landing on the sim, try to stay close enough to the ground on base so that you can use trees and such for landmarks...helps to line up for the final approach. When you get to the point that you can land ANY of the virtual planes EVERY time, you will not have much trouble at all with the real thing. Get in the habit early on of using the rudder. Set the wind on the sim if you have that option, to 13 to 15 mph wind and up to 20 mph gust. Practice cross wind landings too, cause a stiff crosswind can be kinda tricky with these "light" models.
