RE: Is learning with a buddy box needed
Panzer, there is a program called FMS, Flying Model Simulator, which is very very very basic, but you can have a cable made or there already may be a cable made for you that will allow you to plu your radio in. FMS is free, just do a Google for it and you should be able to find it. If you don't want to spend the money, I would recommend FMS then.
