Help! Need RC simulator recommendations.

I just brought my nephew an "FT Tiny Trainer Complete Starter Bundle," and we are working on building it. It includes an FT Branded Pocket CC2500 transmitter.
I'm looking for (hopefully free or very cheap) RC simulator software that will work with that transmitter. I found a variety of simulators, but I can't figure out how/if to use that transmitter with a USB cord to control them. I don't necessarily need it to directly simulate the Mighty Mini Tiny Trainer MKR2 that we are building. I think any beginner trainer would give him some good experience before we actually head out to the park.

I just need him to get used to the idea of reversing the controls in your head when the plane is flying toward you versus away. Just basic stuff.

Thanks in advance.

Turn on the radio. Plug it into your computer with the usb-c port on the TOP of the radio. A menu will appear. Select Joystick.
There should be a calibration/setup for the simulator you've chosen. Do the calibration, and you're ready to go.

Take this for what it's worth since I haven't used either of these. I'm from the "How Hard Could It Be To Fix It" school of learning.

Here is a free one, but be sure to read the description: https://www.rc-thoughts.com/phoenix-sim/
Wings Simulator is available here for $36: https://store.flitetest.com/wings-simulator/?searchid=0

If you want more options Seligsim is another good free one.
