Hey all,
Im very new to r/c airplanes and this is my first time to this site(which looks like it will be very helpful). Me and my buddy just bought a nexstar and i am arguing with him on flying it soon or not. We are both in school right now training to be pilots and he has this in his head that if we fly real planes all the time by ourselfs, then we can handle this but i know that flying real planes and r/c planes are much different. My question is i am very comfortable on the sim and may try it without and intructor.[&:] I was just wondering what some important things to know are that are different from the sim and real thing. We have a place to fly that is very close to us, that is one reason we may avoid an instructor, and the other thing is im not sure of the price and we may not be able to spend the extra cash. Thanks for your help
