Default Do I need a Transmitter?

OK, this might sound like a stupid question....

I am thinking of purchasing RealFlight G2 (or one of the other sims) both to help learn how to fly my Helli and fixed wing, and simply for fun in the winter. I also want my son to learn on this too.

At the moment I only have the models (not finished biulding them yet) and not the radio's, so, my stupid question is.........

do I need to have the model's radio transmitter to use one of these sims? I think I do for some, but what about RealFlight?

Thanks,

Thanks,

Do you know if RealFlight is a good one to 'learn' with before crashing the real thing?

well, people say that AFP is best for 3D, but, i think it would be best if you wait till november or jsut order it now and wait till it come, RealFlight G3, best sim ever as soon as it comes in,

has all the features of AFP and G2, plus alot more, now the AFP guys will have to stop sayin that AFP is better then RF cuz it ain't better then G3
