Totally clueless I must say but I am reading a bit and here is what I want to do:
I want to learn how to fly before even looking into buying a drone. As far as I understand there are several good simulators on Steam and I figured I start there. Very reasonably priced too.
I need a controller. Sounds like a Radiomaster pocket ELRS is the way to go? I am a little fuzzy on if/how this connects to a computer (Mac mini) and if that also later can be used with a (some?) drone?!
Can somebody confirm this for me please?
Oh ok. Thanks. Does the controller then work with a drone too? Or is that just for the computer/simulator?
ELRS is for the Tx (controller) to Rx (drone) protocol. Whatever drone you buy needs to include the ELRS receiver or you need to buy a receiver to add.

You will want to setup a profile that disables the ELRS transmitter when you decide to use for sim, to save battery.
Thank you!
