RealFlight Trainer Edition - RCGroups First Look!

[@Cyberjjc]

I am new to this hobby in general. I have no complaints about your review of this product especially since I just dumped money into it via Steam this evening of 3/2023.

[@gonzo1281]

Dude this was a great summary and you had me cracking up with your sick helicopter skills 😂! Well done and thanks!

[@fredrik-cm4kl]

I say hi from Sweden, nice video, I going in to this hobby, I have rc cars, but my interest for aircraft is big, so now it is time to begin. Keep up the great work and take care 😊

[@bretthagey7916]

Wow; I was watching our guys land and crash into bushes last weekend, just like the sim! Amazing!! lol ;-)

[@jeffreystone7327]

Great video. Very thorough. Thank you.

[@tysonkeffer]

I'm late to the show here, I didn't think this was too long at all. Had a good laugh at the helicopter flight. But I think it goes to show how effective this program can be. I just got my first plane (waiting for a not stormy day to go out and fly with an instructor at a local club. I'VE HAD IT FOR 2 WEEKS AND STILL NO GOOD TRAINING NIGHT!). I bought a blade 70S just to fly around the house. And even that size can be dangerous. I would definitely want to spend a lot of time on a simulator before trying a bigger helicopter. I will be buying RF9.5 soon so I can get some flight practice in. I don't know who's more anxious to get going, me or my 6 year old. Thanks for the video.

[@BillKisel]

Are the airplanes the only difference between the Trainer RF9 and the full package? For example do you get all the airfields with the Trainer package? Thanks...

[@erikspen]

Thanks for the heads up. Check this out in a few days, perhaps.

[@johnnymaynard299]

Great video, keep up the good work, awesome, and thanks man.

[@gc241]

I have the Aero Scout and almost gave up till I found your YT. So, I can use my DXs controller for this sim?

[@thinairtoo8985]

Late to the show. I all ready have the RealFlight InterLink ELITE controllerl. Will this Trainer Edition work with it if I down lode on my computer ? I cant find any info on this anywhere. Thanks for your help. DK

[@we4fm175]

If I install RealFlight Trainer Edition on a laptop, is there a way to see if the program will work without a controller hooked up? Thinking there may be an instructional video showing a plane flying - which would show me if the graphics work. Thanks in advance for helping a newbie!

[@bruce1106]

@we4fm You need the dongle plugged into the USB port for the program to run.

[@MarvinShealy]

Hello Jim interesting video. Question can you interface this RealFlight trainer edition to the x20 FrFly?

[@marlinmero]

What's the big difference between the trainer edition and the 9.5?

[@FBIsurveillance62]

Honestly wondering the same thing I currently purchased 9.5 and now I’m doing research and wondering if I needed to purchase this as well to get me better and more understanding of 9.5

[@andrewsproject9050]

This game is compatible with taranis radio? (Sorry im italian)

[@whidzee]

Hey Jim, what can I do to get you to review the Wings simulator?

[@jimdeangelo9744]

I'm totally new to RC Aircraft and really appreciate your presentation here. I purchased the Habu RTF package. I'm under a Trainer at my new club, so haven't even attempted flying the Habu yet. The Trainer's time is at a premium so I'm spending most of my time on RF Trainer. What I find frustrating is Horizon Hobby (HH) as the "integrator" of this package (brings together E-Flight Habu, new Spektrum DXs, and new RealFlight Trainer) did not keep newbie's like me in focus to the end. What I mean on this is, there is no Spektrum DXs option in RealFlight Trainer. I'm finding the Spektrum 7+chl controller option to not fully fit the DXs. I can't get the proper controls on the DXs to match the trainer controller. A tech provided me with a document on how to create a new controller and I'm still having difficulty creating my DXs controller option. Here are my main problems: 1. I can’t seem to get 3-way and 2-way toggles to setup properly, they revert to proportional. As such they are not getting good readings when toggling back in forth while in controller edit mode. 2. I can’t seem to get the proper channels to match up to information provided in the DXs manual(s) with the RealFlight edit page for controller setup. I find this to be a problem because it will teach me the wrong reactions in training mode then I'll have in actually flying mode. I suspect you might have more pull with HH then I. I'd like to see the DXs controller as an option in RealFlight Trainer. I suspect it would be easier for a knowledgeable to build, test and verify this option then to have all newbie's learn improperly or edit and build a DXs option which will vary by each learner. Thanks for listening and I'd appreciate any help with HH and/or any corrections, aids, references to my assessment here.

[@rcgvideos]

That's a great suggestion and makes perfect sense!

[@jimdeangelo9744]

@@rcgvideos HH says to get KnifeEdge to do and they haven't responded yet. When I delivered integrated products the customer expected me to fix issues like this.

[@mikemajalmaverickfoletta]

Is there a list of laptops that will work with Real Flight ?? Thanks !

[@h03nan]

Hi, I downloaded the trainer edition from Steam. I have the same controller (bought it togehther with G4.5 many years ago) that you show in this video but I can not make it work with the software. Is there any drivers that should be downloaded to make it work? Great video by the way.

[@ddfpv6445]

Hi Niclas did you ever get your interlink controller to work with this?

[@jeffbarker4895]

Are you allowed to fly rc planes in public parks,soccer fields etc

[@rcgvideos]

Most of the time. Depends on the park.

[@mikemajalmaverickfoletta]

Where is a list of laptops that will work with Real Flight ??

[@lloydpedvis238]

Can i use my flysky I6S transmitter connected to my computer usb port with a cable. I works with the Liftoff simulator also hosted by Stream

[@rcgvideos]

Best place to ask would be the FlySky section on RCGroups here www.rcgroups.com/flysky-985/

[@vantagepointvideotexas]

A great big help!!!!!!

[@RemcosFPV]

Can we get these planes if we have rf9 already

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

Yes! The new airplanes, including the HobbyZone AeroScout S 1.1m and the E-flite Habu STS 70mm EDF Jet, plus the new Virtual Flight Instructor (VFI) lessons included in RF Trainer Edition are also included in the recently released RealFlight 9.5 / RF9.5 ...which you'll receive as a FREE update if you already have RF9: If you purchased RealFlight 9 at any time, you will receive an online update to 9.5 at no charge! Internet connectivity required to download the update after RealFlight 9.5 is released on October 1st, 2020.

[@RemcosFPV]

[@rcgvideos]

Not sure if those will be available for download or not.

[@RemcosFPV]

@@rcgvideos try and get them to do an update for rf9 with the aero scout please!!!!

[@gebiete]

For the price of $60 Canadian pesos it doesn't even let you set weather conditions, like wind or turbulence. Total scam, asked for refund.
