Oh, and I found RealFlight G3.5 to be fun to play with but
its way to easy.


You can tweak various settings in G3 to make a heli fly as easy or as difficult as you wish . I have changed the Dominion 3D over to electric , changed the mechanics etc and it duplicates my Falcon 3D very closely . I even painted the canopy red and switched it to white wood blades

Even though I am a beginner , I'm an old schooler in that I think you can get dependant on too many gadgets . Kinda like keeping the training wheels on your bicycle , after awhile it looks silly and you will never progress or will do so at a much slower rate . Learn to fly well in a good Sim like G3 then learn how to fly good out in the real world . Much more rewarding than letting electronics do everything IMHO If you have a TX so that it can be switched on/off and you use it only in emergencys after a brief learning curve then yes , ok idea .
