hey congrats on the first flight! just remember the sim is great for learning to fly i done it myself. the only problem is if you have no experience with range checks, starting,or tuning it can hurt! litterally weather the wallet or even worse yourself. find a club and fly there if your not doing so already meet alot of people that have just started or been in this hobby forever. alot of good help and suggestions regardless of your skill level someone will always be willing to help. its a blast flying with a group of friends.
