The skill shown in the RC videos is extraordinary. However, I don't see that it has any more relevance to learning to fly whether RC or full size than watching a Ken Block video has to learning to drive.


As a one-time model builder and flyer, I can tell you it has a LOT of relevance.


I think I did not make my point clear. I was not saying that RC or Sim flying was not relevant, I was saying that the videos showed such extreme skill that anyone would realise normal folk would never be able to get to that level.
