Simulation speed

[invasion]

Ok just noticed that I have simulation speed on 70? does this mean I am not doing as well as I thought I was? should it be on 100% to handle like real trex 500 ?

SO much harder on 100%

not sure mate mine just checked mine an its at 100% ????

Yeah I would think 100% is the norm and I thought I was good!!

Running it slow is only worth doing if you're learning stick movements for certain manouvres, but you really need to be practicing at 100% (which still feels slower than real life to me) otherwise you'll struggle to keep up with a real heli.

I always used 100% but now find it more useful to be up around 120% as it makes it a bit harder, that way your real life models feel slower in comparison and you have more time to think!

Oh ok I see what you mean so do you put on any D/R & expo on your tx ?

No.

I ramp up the wind, hover instability and anything that makes it harder to fly, if you learn the basics with a hard to handle heli on the sim it seems so much easier when youre in the real world.
