I'm new to this R/C thing, but am a CFI in full size stuff, and an airline captain so, that means I have about no knowledge!

But, are the simulators made to have dual rates so he could have a simulator model that is less sensitive and more like the flying model he has? Sounds as if he has his simulator model too sensitive. A less sensitive sim model will make him move the sticks farther to get the same reactions and could help you out with him at the field.
