That's good but nothing like the real thing.I'm jealous as can only get freerider working on a 10" tablet. So if it's raining on my days off. Then ps4 wins.

so i got a falcon 250 pro rtf new its only a cc3d though
got a 2nd hand 250 pro without a receiver and fc so i ordered a f3 and a ia6b
so with a bit of luck i should have 2 flying soon
i got a few extras from banggood too like extra props, aomway 3dbi antennas, battery alarm.... whole spare frame kit blah blah

Welcome! Nice quad choice. What part of Aus? Have a good mate in Perth.

These days there are better, newer RX options for FlySky.

Smaller, lighter, more advanced and with better replaceable antennas complete wiring harness etc.

Welcome aboard

FPV FreeRider is a good way to get some skills before your maiden flights with real quads.
Your learning curve will be a lot shorter after having already gained experience on a sim (presuming it was with a real radio).
