I have FMS simulator and I have never flown for real yet but I am planning on getting a Slipstream Electric Viper (http://www.flyingwings.co.uk/store/product_info.php?cPath=101_102_120&products_id=541). Does anyone know of an FMS model that might be similar to the Slipstream Viper so I can get some practice in?

There are several flying wings out there for FMS that will fly close to your Viper. Most of the wings fly pretty much the same. They are usually fast, roll like crazy, most slow down OK but require a bit of speed to land unless you master some high alpha manuevers, then you can bring it in nose high and plop it down in the grass next to you.

Try the Stryker (http://gunnerson.homestead.com/files/stryker8.zip) to get started and the Stryker 27C (http://www.2kool4u.com/2k_1006/strykerflightsim1.shtml) as a step up and then give the AlleyCat (http://gunnerson.homestead.com/files/alleycat.zip) a try. It is pretty fast and will cover ground quickly just like a fast wing.
