RC Airplane Simulators

I am a big advocate of doing things. I say if you want to try something out you should go ahead and try it out. One of these things that I have always wanted to try was building and flying RC airplanes. Now that I am an adult and have the resources and timeit is finally time for me to delve into the hobby. I have been doing it for about a year now and am really enjoying the whole process.

My point here is that I have a friend who took a bit of a different route.

 

 

I bought myself an inexpensive foam plane and after getting used to that I bought myself a plastic shell plane with a powerful electric engine which was a step up. After I used that airplane up I moved on to a balsa wood plane which I am now using and enjoying.

Back to the story of my friend.

He started in the hobby at the same time as I did. But the route he took was to buy a simulator first! We had some lively discussions about this. Me saying just go ahead and do it! He saying that he wanted to learn how to fly before he bought a plane! What if on his first flight he crashed his plane? What about all that expense and time?

Anyhoo, I changed my stance a bit about this whole argument between us while on a trip to a local hobby shop. This is the kind of mom and pop shop that you don't see much anymore. In the shop they have a kiosk with a flight simulator and I used it for a while and it was simply amazing! I can now see the value in getting a simulator.

The whole thing looked like a real grass field and the plane looked and handled real! It was amazing. You could choose from a wide variety of aircraft to fly, choose from different types of fields and even tinker with the weather and wind. And I can really see the value in this. You have to get some practice with the hand held controller so you can handle a plane. Pretty simple.

So, if you are thinking about investing hundreds of dollars in the hobby of RC airplanes and have never done any flying it really might be a good idea to get some kind of a simulator. I think it might be a really good investment. And, it's a lot of fun too.

Now there are of course different kinds of simulators like the type for flying real airplanes but you don't actually want to get one of those! They make simulators that are specifically for model airplanes. And many of them even come with a hand held controller.
