RE: Check this out, the helicopter training stand
first saw one back in 1990.Decided to just use the usual "sticks and balls".
My opinion is ,use sticks and balls,saving some money for that $20 per gallon fuel!
GOOD LUCK!

I already know how to hover and fly, I just thought it was a cool idea... I dont think its worth $200 though, unless someone is really having trouble learning to hover.
I'm not amazingly good at nose-in, maybe it would help with that. But practice will prove otherwise.

The only way to get good at nose-in is to burn fuel. More fuel burnt, the easier it gets. On the other hand for $200 I'd get myself a simulator as you can do so much more on a sim than just hover.

Well said. For $200 you could get reflex, which is about the closest thing you can get to real life really. Or RF G3. And they both do more than just helis.
