For the beginners, somebody that never flown a rc airplane before. Did anybody try to fly without crashing a Pilatus PC 9 semi scale sport model almost ready to fly with ONLY good skills in flight remote control simulation games.

I want to know because I'm a beginner and I just bought a Pilatus PC 9 semi scale sport model almost ready to fly. And some members in another forum think that I should start with a RC training airplane first. Should I listen to them or start to build and finish the sport model that I have now. Then buy a RC flight simulater past the expert mode or whatever then try out my skills in real life? (without crashing)
