Using a Remote Control...is it worth it? - Im trying to learn how to fly REAL R/C Models...

Im trying to learn how to fly REAL R/C models, without spending hundreds of dollars learning and then crashing.


I am wondering, if the physics, and sensitivity is realistic enough to train with??

Thanks guys

I have trainned a lot with FMS and I can see the difference with at the field. You will get much confidence, since you know that if you crashed with FMS it won't cost you.

Any how, crashing from time to time in our hobby is natural.

Go ahead and train with FMS, it pays!!!

roberto is 100% correct. Its free to crash while practicing with fms, and when your planning to fly real r/c and the weather is bad, its fun. i use it to practice different maneuvers without risking my planes. And with all the FMS models out there you can fly planes with all kinds of different characteristics and get the feel for how to control a plane.

This site has saved me from rainy days.

wow, ty for the info! =)

I was about to go out and buy that realflight G2 for 200 dollars! Why do that when it only costs me about 6 bucks to make the interface.

Thanks again
