stay away from AFP and AFPD, not worth the money IMO... if you get a sim, get G3...

BUT, I disagree with these people above... unless you purposefully try to kill one of those R3D's, or repeatedly dork it HARD, it is just about impossible to break it to the point of repairs... The first one I saw fly crashed 52 times in the first day, someone learning to 3d indoors..., and the only "repairs" were putting the prop o-ring back on, and throwing it in the air... The only times it needed real repair with glue, was after a few encounters with the propeller from another plane... this is NOT your typical depron brittle foam flyer, it is flexible and doesnt "snap" when you crash... plus you use flexible silicone glue, so even the repaired spots still flex...

the sim is a valuable tool, but if you want the same training, plus some real fun, r3d it...
