Default Physics of the sim

@Fliptunes: You should know that most simulators consider that the pilot behind the gimbals knows what he is doing. You should have a basic idea on what a gimbal does. So you should know what elevator, rudder, motor and aileron is and what it does to your flight path. My product offers a trainer function for helicopter and 3D aircraft torque BUT no trainer for fixed wing aircraft. The reason is quite simple: I believe that the functions of an aircraft are rather easy to understand, the rest is trial and error. With the helicopter it is different so we have that step-by-step trainer system.

As far as I know, the RealFlight G2 offers a trainer mode for aircraft, something that tells you what stick you should move next: The virtual flight instructor. If this is your primary problem, the G2 is your choice.
