Look, I'm not here to get into big arguments either. However, when I see illogical position statements asserting something being like; or, being better then, something else and used to influence decisions others are trying to make, I'm sorry, I'm going to disagree.

The reality is: Flying R/C is not like flying full scale, period! You don't use your thumbs; or, thumbs and forefingers to control full scale airplanes. Really the only thing that transfers between the two is the understanding of what, does what.

I have no problem with the vast majority of R/Cers in the US flying Mode Two and if the majority of them would simply stop with this assertion that flying their way is more like flying real airplanes, I'd likely have less to say when this topic about Mode One vs Mode Two, comes up. This is especially true, when you consider that very few full scale airplanes use the joy stick anymore!
