Probably the best way to get your thumb in 3D mode (beside a sim)is to get a plane like the SX2 or Revolution 3D electric line of plane,its a little pricy when you have to buy everything,but its made out of EPP and is very durable.you will learn to hover in no time+you can practice close in.I still have a ball everytime I take it out to fly.Tonight around 10:00 I was out flying in the dark under the street lite in front of my house.:-) its a blast
