I've tried to use FS3 for R/C training in the very beginning of my R/C
"career", and was quite disappointed. The simulated Cessna doesn't
handle like any R/C plane I've flown yet. So I checked all flight
simulators I could get my hands on and finally I've stayed with Chuck
Yeager's Air Combat, cause the flight simulation is so simple that it
almost resembles real R/C planes. Although the power of the engines is
not scale (very low, in fact) it can help you in getting used to some
simple pattern maneuvres (there's no rudder, though) ...
Yeager's Air Combat is my choice of taste and I'm sure that other
pilot's would recommend different software ...

Bye,
  Torsten.
