since your in this state, how about wind gusts during takeoff and especially landing, say around 20+ mph

Get proficient with landing on the runway centerline AND have the aircraft stop in front of you.  If you can do that, Young Luke Skywalker, you can do anything!  </p>

Yep, tune in some wind. Try 15mph winds with 25mph gusts and go up from there.

You can also mess up all your trims, take off, and then trim it out. That will simulate a rough maiden flight with a badly out of trim aircraft.

You can also have RFG2 throw some other curveballs at you if you have it programmed right: it will automatically reverse a servo channel on you occasionally, and have the engine run too rich, to see how you handle those problems.

BTW - a funny sidenote here: my son found out you can crank the wind up to 100mph+, and you can just watch your airplane blow right off the field!

Click on some falures in the aircraft colume, If yours is just the G2 you will not get the real picture of flying. It is hard to keep the ground in site. The newer ones G4.5 give you a better idea of what is going on with yiur plane.

download my field, bingo field, from the Realflight website. Try taking off and landing on the grass strip runway with bushes and trees at both ends. You can do it, you have to kind of develop the technique. I used the G2 sim to see whether or not Icould do a runway in my backyard. Ihave a nice runway now. Use the "Look at Ground" option to keep the ground in sight .
