I flew the electristar in the sim before I flew for real. To me it seemed plane in the sim was heavier than the real thing because it wanted to sink faster in the sim.
I have Real Flight G3.5, and while overall I'm quite happy with it, I don't think it does a very good job of modelling slow flight. It's funny to fly the Nexstar around at half throttle and have the thing practically dropping like a rock. The real Nexstar is practically a sailplane and will easily cruise around at a click or two above idle.
