He there,

I have just purchaced this flight sim and I am really enjoying it. I was just wondering if anyone that good at flying the real thing (model, not proper helicopter) can tell me how realistic it is please.

I am using this Sim to get good at controlling the heli before I put it to test on the real thing so would appreciated any advice on whats the best model to use etc.

Thanks for reading all.

Hello Markie,

the philosophies on "which simulated model helps me best in learning to fly" differ vastly. Currently I prefer the non-stabilized "EC135" to learn hovering, although in reality I can already "let it rock" with a stabilized FBL micro. Each model has its pro and cons. I am NOT good at flying a real model, though. For hovering I prefer a really unstabilized model. For learning pitch management I prefer a Logo 500.
