Not what I'm looking for. That simulates 1:1 scale planes (full size). I am talking about one I can use to practice flying without risking my real planes on the first attempt. I need one where I can use my own transmitter connected to the computer. There are cables to hook them up to the USB-port. But the problem is finding a decent one that actually runs on Linux. All the commercial ones I can find are MS Windows only. -- Joost
