Saw it on tv for the first time a few weeks ago and loved what I saw. I'd like to get into it but need more time, money, and practice :) Are there any good simulators out there?

There's liftoff on steam, http://store.steampowered.com/app/410340/Liftoff/ and DRL has one, https://thedroneracingleague.com/videogame/download/

With both you can use a normal transmitter if you have one and that's the best way to get a similar experience of real flight. The FrSky is the easiest to setup but a Spektrum can be made to work w/ a special adapter. I like both of them for different reasons.
