I would like to just add to this. mockalis86 was my first student flyer. While we both still have things to learn of which we have discussed many of them, such as different wind conditions and gaining comfort in performing different manouvers, he successfully got his plane into the air performed basic aerobatics and brought it safely back to the ground. While I will still be working with him there is no longer a need for that buddy cable between transmitters. For any other prospective new flyers out there The computer simulators make a huge difference.
