Suggestions for a cheap sim/buddy box

[rickp]

So I';ve peaked the curiosity of my nephew and he';s keen to start playing with multi-rotors. Coming up to 12, so I';m looking for a reasonably cheap simulator and tx combo for him to get some practice in to save on hubsan repair costs

Any suggestions? He';s using a PC. Are the Dynam USB controllers any good? I';ve seen something like this:

Any other suggestions? I know phoenix is the daddy, but a bit pricey..

a cheap freebee one would be FMS it has a quadcopter in it
just a matter of finding an old tx

i started my son out on that with an old 4 channel tx
i have it here if you want it  I could post it over but will prob take 3 weeks to get there comes with phoniex v3 and dongle

Thanks Firey - looks like the one I link to includes FMS, so I would guess that USB controller works with it.

This is ok for the price,  the controller also works with FMS:
