which simulator do you prefer? i am using Reflex, and find it to be helpful. i have yet to fly my heli, but am using this as a tool to prepare myself for my first flight.

how close do the simulators come to the real thing.

I'm not sure about the Reflex sim, I use Realflight G2. For the most part G2 is very close to flying the real thing. Especially when you fly with a little wind.

I'm using G2, the trainer flys like my Hummingbird.

I am interested to find out the differences in flying heli in AFP and Reflex. It will be nice to have someone with good experience in both make some "unbiased" comments on the pros and cons.
