How easy is it to get started with simconnect?

[Guest djmarius]

Hello,I own the FSX but not the deluxe version. I want to buy the deluxe for the SDK so that I can start playing with simconnect.How easy is it to start using the simmconnect libraries to get data from and back into FSX in real time? My programming background is mainly VB 5 and 2003 although I did use C and C++ in University so I do know how classes work and general programming concepts in C.I don't want to buy the deluxe version and find that it is all too hard to even do simple things.

The way I look at it, if I can do it, anyone can.It's a pretty easy to use. I've got a few C# tutorials on my blog, but the concept should transition to C++ easily enough.
