## Fly at Eli Field
Eli Field is a well-equipped flying field in Monticello, IL. It’s the home
flying field for Horizon Hobby, and many of the aircraft in this title were
developed there! With side-by-side paved and grass runways, and plenty of open
space, it’s the perfect place to learn to fly.
## Learn from Experienced RC Pilots
RealFlight’s training modules help take the mystery out of flying model
aircraft. An experienced pilot talks you through the use of flight assistance
features and gives you the knowledge you need to succeed.
## Upgrade to RealFlight 9 Coming Soon
When you are ready for over 150 more aircraft, more flying sites, and other
features like Challenges and Multiplayer, you can upgrade to RealFlight 9. A
discount is available on the RealFlight 9 store page.
## Controller Required
RealFlight requires a controller to run and supports a large number of
options:
* Option 1 (Recommended): For the best experience, we strongly recommend the Spektrum InterLink DX simulator controller. It is specially designed for RealFlight and all your controls will come pre-configured by default.
* Option 2: Use your own RC Radio with an interface. The Spektrum WS2000 wireless dongle works well for this, and there are other 3rd-party wireless interfaces available. This option may require some user setup.
* Option 3: Use any 4-axis game controller such as a gamepad or an advanced flight stick.
*Note: See the Announcements and Community Discussion for purchase links.
