Default Great Planes REALFLIGHT

In my opinion, I found Realight G2 with USB Interlink
wasnt worth the money at all. I really dont feel G2 is for
electric flying beginners as it has almost no choice
(as it comes) in flying electric trainers. The program is
very difficult for newbies to edit an existing gas plane
to make it into an electric. Realflight tech support
was no help either. So I sold my G2 package and
purchased Cockpit Master Backyard Edition for
$29.50 (!!!!) and purchased a stand-alone
Realflight USB Interlink transmitter from Tower Hobbies
for $80.00 (CMBE has a patch that works with
the USB interlink) and it has over 20 electrics (including my
Sky Scooter Pro in it) to fly with. Editing planes is
a breeze as well. I am far happier with this $110 package cost than with the $200+ cost of G2. Your mileage may differ
of course.
