Default RE: Simulator videos

I'm currently running G3, I guess I'm one of the few that has had no problems with the software. My computer is set up for gaming though so I would hope it doesn't

I've been flying planes now for about a year. So I consider myself a newb. I'm slowly progressing with planes and just recently purchased RealFlight about 2 months ago. I can already see that I've improved greatly with the sim. I've never crashed my ParkZone J-3 Cub. Good landings every time. Even moved the throws for the first flight. The sim helped me learn how to trim the plane and even got me ready for my first loops. I even feel so much more comfortable in higher winds with the cub than before. Used to never go out to the field with more than 2mph winds. The sim has made me much more confident.

That said I've been looking at that heli for a while. Every time I pass it in the hobby store it calls my name lol. Along with pretty much any plane I see I'll look into the honey bee though. I have read good things about the honey bee and generally bad things about the GWS dragonfly. Something about that box always calls to me when I see it.

Good to know that you like G3 for heli's. I'm glad I'm not wasting my time playing with them in the sim and that it's actually helping.

Thanks for your response.
