Default RE: COPILOT OR FLIGHT SIM?


ORIGINAL: rsking45

This FS8 copilot seams very interesting to me.Right now I am learning on a fixed pitch heli using a spectrum dx6 tx.Will this work on this heli with the dx6?When I feel that I am really getting the hang of things I will be getting a trex450,so I want to be able to remove from one and install on another heli.

I would not use it on a fixed pitch heli but it would probaby work if the extra weight does not affect your model drastically . As stated above and I mean no disrespect in my statements but you probably already have the 2nd easiest type of heli to learn on only to the twin rotor toys so I don't see the point . If you want to really learn then spend the money on a realistic sim and practice . Even when you move up to better heli's the sim will continue to be invaluable as a training aid . Your next move up to the Trex 450 will be a whole 'nuther learning curve as the collective pitch 3D capeable machines perform very different .
