I've found this to be very true for me, too, particularly with learning to land quickly when a wind gust starts flying my little quad away like a kite, lol.

Thanks for that, Doc. I'd seen that advice before, but had forgotten. I believe using these simulators require something better than the controllers that come with the toy quads. I guess I'll be reading up on decent controllers now.

Thanks guys! Once I get some decent video, I'll definitely share with you all.

Oh gotcha, thanks for the explanation and your wonderful desert videos!
