hi guys,
this article highlights what I was trying to get across at a forum in uk, but the consensus is here 'if it's there and gets you in the air quicker then use it'
but by using auto pilot .......heli'command 3G etc..... to learn to fly 'you' are not learning to fly, the argument here is, it saves money on repairs and gives more air time.
but if you don't learn to take off, hover and FFF then 'you' are not flying the heli/plane you are just giving it throttle and when the system goes t... u. [wrong] then it is blamed on the system and not the 'pilots' inability to fly.
there is only one way to learn......on the sticks....be it sim time or real life flying/training
I can see it help-full when learning 3D IF you have the right system .....which will put the craft from vertical [ plane] or inverted to a normal level flight if sticks are released if/when a problem occurs ............. and of coarse you have altitude on your side
..............
regards
don
