Hey guys! Welcome back! We are starting a new series called "RealFlight versus Actual Flight". In this new series, we fly the simulation model in RealFlight 9.5 first then fly the actual model in the field.

In this episode, we flew the Blade 230 S V2. We used Real Flight 9.5 to practice and improve our hovering and flying skills and then transition those skills to hovering and flying an actual Blade 230 S V2 in the field!

The good news is that the physics in RealFlight is very true to life. The Blade 230 S behaved very similarly from the RealFlight simulation model to the to the actual Blade 230 S V2.

However, because, RealFlight is a simulation software, the "fear-factor" is definitely not there and we were definitely more relaxed and able to perform maneuvers we are not yet ready to do in the actual flight.

The Blade 230 S V2 is a very stable heli and Jon and I both feel that it is a great starting place for the beginner RC heli pilot. However, the probability of a first successful RC heli hover, goes up dramatically if you use and practice on a simulation software like RF9.5 first!

Enjoy the video and please subscribe to our channel! Thank you!
