There are many good simulators that are close to real but I do not know if they will work with your radio,there is Real flight G3,Reflex XTR and Aero Flight Deluxe they are all great simulators and work well with radios but I am talking brand name radios like Hitec and Futaba you see they require some set up that I am not sure your radio has,more or less computer based radios.There is the free sim I believe it is FMS or something like that but it is no better than a video game you probably would be better off with a video game.
When you get a sim you want something that is going to teach you how to set up the radio and the heli and the FMS just does not do that with XTR you use your own radio and set it up just like you would with a real heli as with G3 and aero flight you can get a usb type radio with it that is made by Futaba that teaches you well I had G2 the one before G3 and I had the usb radio and it taught me well and I learned to set up the radio and the heli both,and it was fun learning.As I said I do not know if your radio will work with these sims and also you need a rather high end computer to run them and if you are using a laptop forget it they will not run on it.
What I would suggest to you is forget your radio and get a sim with a usb radio that comes with it then you can learn the correct way that way when you get into collective pitch on a Nitro or a larger Electric with CCPM then you will not have any problems setting up the radio that you will need to get to fly them.You see the radio you have will only work with that heli you go with a different heli you will need a different radio that is more diverse than that one.I know that this is probably not what you wanted to hear but it is the truth the radios that come with less expensive heli's really are not worth that much and cannot be used on higher end heli's because they require more expensive computer radios like the Futaba 9CHPS that I use.SORRY
