Description
Professional RC helicopter and drone simulator - a must have for anyone flying RC. We have the most realistic flight behavior on mobile phones and tablets. Our models fly just the same as real RC models, in real RC flying fields. Do not fly your real model before trying this program! Don't crash your models, crash ours! Crashing models here cost nothing.This application will save you money, frustration and many days in waiting for model parts.
Learn to fly without fear. Rain or wind outside, start flying right now!
The program includes wide range of RC models, from starter models to expensive aerobatic and scale models. This is the only RC simulator that includes RC boats and RC cars, in addition to excellent simulation of RC helicopters, RC planes and RC drones. Great for experienced modelers, and even greater for kids or someone who is just starting in this exciting hobby.
The program includes 3 free interactive object sets that can be loaded on any flying field when flying helicopters. The interactive objects can be used to learn landing and precise model control.
In addition to the fixed point camera that represents the RC pilot point of view, we have included follow up camera that follows the model. That is useful when you just start, so the model never gets away.
Notes:
1. This is not a game. You are controlling flying RC models that reacts like real flying models. It takes some time to learn, and again, do not expect "arcade" style controls.
2. The onscreen control sticks are just indicators! They are made small so they do not obscure the screen.
*** You do not need to keep your fingers on them ***
Sliding your finger any where on the right screen half affects the right control stick , the same for the left screen part - sliding finger there moves the left control stick.
We suggest to select beginner settings at first few days before you can comfortably progress further.
What’s New

Ratings and Reviews
Very good but....
The app does not rotate so you have to fly it with the iPad home button on the right. This orientation hinders the use of earphones as the earphone connection is now on the bottom left where the throttle is (Mode 2). The sound is actually very poor!
For beginners it is suggested 'selecting beginner settings'. Great, but what are beginner settings? I emailed support and they suggested a link to their website. Yeah, some people may have not thought to check the website before emailing support, however, there is nothing in the website regarding beginner settings.
Really, a short single page document would be good as a user manual. The page could contain links to forums which explain what the 4 Modes mean. Simple guys.
Great Heli Sim
Fantastic Heli simulator for iPad and iPhone. Great for learning new tricks and practicing orientations - interface (touch screen) is the only real issue but fairly fundamental e.g. fairly small area to move my thick fingers around on iPhone but iPad control area is way bigger and feels very precise, gets easier with practice.
Physics are good, and autopilot great for training.
Some requests:
- App should remember model and mode between sessions - I fly the R90 in Mode 1 and have to choose these every time I load the app.
- I always turn on smoke and idle up, can they remember defaults too?
- No control over time rate - would like to practice at half-speed to master maneuvers.
Great app, thanks!
Pretty realistic, but ads stop play
This is a pretty difficult (and, therefore, I assume, realistic) RC helicopter sim. It takes a long time to get the hang of flying, which is exactly what I was after.
Unfortunately, there’s an add banner at the top all the time, which is ok, I suppose, since this is the free version, but every now and then you’re presented with a full screen advert that won’t go away for 5 seconds, sometimes this happens mid-flight, and you crash.
The sim itself is excellent, but the ads need to be rethought.
