RE: Any advice on a sim?
Get a sim all of them are good to learn the basics on. Realflight G3 comes with "transmitter" that only works on your pc.
Do yourself a favor and join AMA, use the RCU or AMA club locator or ask your hobby shop where is the closest AMA field. You can usually find a trainer or someone who can train you to fly at these fields.
The combination of a SIM and an instructor will save you a lot of money and frustration.
Finally, buy yourself a trainer. I learned on a PT-40 that I built, but there are alot of Ready to Fly (RTF) and Almost Ready to Fly planes that are specifically trainers.
Finally, go to the beginners section of this website and read the threads and post as many questions as you can think of or run a search of the website and you will find vast amount of knowlege here becasue everyone of us was in your shoes once.
Finally, Welcome to the hobby you will find this to be a fun, frustrating and addictive hobby. And all of that will be in your first 30 seconds of flight time.
