First want to welcome you to the forum, its a great place for asking questions.

Now for you question,
It doesnt have a Blade Cp Pro, yet, but FsOne has a Blade CP on it. Its fairly good and runs on your computer. You are going to need a fairly decent computer to run it but it works fine. Only complaint is the Cp is a little bit more stable than it should be.

HI

Again wellcome to the forum,
I use the Reflex simulator that up until recently you could only use your actual transmitter on. Now you can buy the latest version of the sim with its very own transmitter. You can do great things buy all regards with this new package. I have not got it so I can't go by the new package of the reflex. but you can learn more by visiting www.reflex-sim.de
I do have the reflex without controller and use my own radio with it. I can if I want a specific model go to the internet and look for a model to fly on it if one has been built. Or I can build one myself, With this simulator you can if you wish to do so build your very own model of your heli. I have myself done the training program and succeeded in building the spitfire. I am about to build my first heli. It does take some time but it is always nice to have more to fly.

Simulators are great and they will ade even a pro heli pilot. I practice with mine all the time. I am not a pro by any standard but I can fly heli's and teach others to fly. In practacing I crash and I would rather crash on the simulator than crash for real attempting a move for real that I am not ready for yet.

In my experience simulators can be settup so that you can make them more difficult to fly than the real thing and that is without doubt the best way to go. If you can learn to control the heli with the settings set like this then it will make your first real flight a lot easier than you expect. Of course this is if your a learner which your not so obviously you'll have no trouble setting the heli on the sim just how you want it. This will help you get the best out of it should you wish to take it up.

Anyway, good luck with what you choose to do.
I'm off to practice on my simulator while the weather is not flyable
