Default Real RC vs Sim

I've tried G3, and ClearView, and some other sim as well. Is it me, or is flying a real RC plane easier than flying one in the sim?

flying a real RC plane can be harder because of the $$$$$ in front of your eyes, however, G3 is very close to the real thing.

ClearView planes are very close to flying real planes as well. Try to concentrate on the sim and think that you are flying your real plane.

Real thing: Visual cues are better, you can see the horizon and ground in your peripheral vision at all times, with the sim this IMO is the biggest problem.

Sim: no pucker factor, you can try anything. Great for learning muscle memory reactions for when the plane is coming at you, you can do whatever you want to the weather without worry.
