Dear All. My son, 8, is very lean at making things and of course I would like to get him involved in this hobby. I myself used to make models in my youth but never became proficient at R/C flying, always a regret. We are in South London (Herne Hill) so local flying spaces I guess will be an issue(?). Clearly ideally we will need to find a club and helpful experts in time. For now during lockdown we are focusing on building models and have kicked off with the Vintage Model Co "Simple Cub", which looks great and has a build video, ideal for kids. Now to my question - I believe it would be helpful to purchase a flight simulator that he can use with the RadioLink Mode 2 transmitter we bought. The question is which flight sim package is best in helping complete novices learn to fly model planes. Realism and entertainment are clearly not so critical, rather the ability to help my son get as proficient as possible before he tries to fly an actual model. Does someone have any ideas on this? I am happy to spend money and I am not looking to get sonething for nothing, I want to buy what is best. Can anyone give me some advice?
Best wishes,
Nick
