There is no end to R/C. It’s not like once you’ve learned how to fly that’s it. There is always a new area to explore or a maneuver to learn. After 20+ years of flying I still manage to scare the, you know what, out of myself at least once a week. That kind of rush doesn’t come in a pill and certianly doesn't come from a computer.

Your questions come across as though you’ve been playing with a sim and found it a bit dull and wonder if the real thing is just as dull. Keep in mind a flight sim replicates flying just as much as combat on a PS2 replicates being in live combat in Iraq. There are no buttons that increase your heart rate and make you sweat. Some people look at a flight sim as a game but most use it as a tool to shorten the learning curve of the real thing, either by a beginner learning R/C from scratch or veteran to improve his rolling circles. Since I got my sim three years ago it’s greatly expanded my flying skills but often the darn thing just bores me too much. 100 to 1 I’d rather fly the real thing, there is no comparison in the excitement and satisfaction.
