Default RE: flying simulater or airplane fist

All these simulators are better, but note the FMS has trainers, 4 channels planes, even jets and yep heli's as well, but the others match some of the models out there, just note the FMS is Free, or only $25 with control box, even did the heli practice with mine, helped as well...all of these will certainly get your started....<>..

I've flown loads of models, my skill is todate solid on the Super Cub as do touch and goes even Night Flights, Radian Glider, and lately the Hanger 9 T34 Mentor, pricy but with the DX6I and flys fantastic, low wing warbird, but just over trainer ability with droops and flaps, this one lands better than any warbird todate, nearly as easy as the Cub, but get a pilot as too much investment on the Mentor to lose on the maiden, its however my top plane at the moment...Have Fun !! .. BEST ..<>..

Note the Mentor lands about as well as any plane I've flown, I do mainly grass lanings and its big enough to land right side up instead of nosing down as my others but on a windless day managed a silky smooth pavement landing on a rather short runway, even deadsticks in with zero throttle, unbelieveable ship..<>..with its beginner progressive settings, the flaps and droops slow it down, you can flare too early, but this one keeps flying, it won't drop a wing like the other ships, comes in like an airliner, I'm impressed !! But again have warbird experience or get a pilot before trying this one..<>..
