[QUOTE="graywoulf, post: 115060, member: 8691"] As far as I know, the use of a standard remote controller is the best way to use one of the sims. I started out with a FlySky FS-i6 controller myself which is not too expensive and I had to buy the correct connecting cable to connect it to my PC and the cable was around $7.00 back then too. I started out with the FPV Freerider simulator which at that time was $4.99 and I think the basic version still is at that price. There are quite a few simulators out there and it is basically one of those "you get what you pay for" type things. I was interested in FPV before I bought my Spark and since the new style of flying "cinematic FPV" came around, my interest was renewed. Flying with the goggles on is so much fun. There are FPV quadcopter bundles out there with inexpensive goggles, a controller and a small quadcopter with brushed motors that can be bought for around $150.00 that will get you started flying pretty quick but you still should practice in a simulator first. If you have never flown a toy quadcopter with a basic stabilization flight controller then you will have a lot of flying to do to get used to manual flight. Flying a quadcopter in "Acro" mode is nothing like flying a DJI drone. It will not stay at a desired altitude on it's own and every movement basically requires a counter movement. It's not hard to learn though but takes some getting used to. There is a free version of FPV Freerider for Android in the Google Play store that I use on my phone. It uses virtual joysticks to control the quadcopter. I does have a stabilized mode called "Horizon Mode" that makes starting out much easier. I don't know if there is an iOS version or not. I also have this simulator on my 10" tablet which is a lot of fun as well. There is a lot of videos on YouTube that can show you what you need to get started so if you are really interested in FPV, you should look for some of them. Maybe search for "FPV for Beginners" or something similar. Really, it is a ton of fun. I'll stick around if you have any more questions. [/QUOTE]
