Default Worth the effort?

I soloed this past summer and have a few flights on a Tiger 60. I can fly my trainer inverted, do loops, immelmans, cuban 8s, aileron rolls, etc. I am looking to try to learn IMAC type aerobatics and plan to start with the Tiger. My question is regarding using a sim (RF G3.5) to learn the maneuvers. I have a Tiger for the sim and have started to use the sim to practice. Am I wasting my time? Is there a benefit to learning on the sim? I know that there is quite a difference between the sim and actuality, but will it help? Or should I wait until I can fly the actual plane?

Regards,
Jerry
