First of all, thanks to FMS for a great flight simulator. I purchased a Game-Eleoctronics Wireless controller to fly with the simulator, and it works very well. I got it at Wal-Mart although this is not a commercial for Wal-mart. It cost $27.
For the real RC flying, I fly a ParkZone J3 Cub (unsuccessfully) and decided to try praciticing with the simulator. Next time, I should be able to fly much better without quick finger mistakes.
Thanks again to FMS and also the plane designers who spend many hours making airplanes.
