### 1/5 — Junk

*2021-03-28, version 1.6.0*

This drone game is super bad it won’t take off and is impossible to fly. So the results are as junk as junk gets. It should not even get reviewed by me because of how bad it is.

### 4/5 — Decent ...considering it’s free

*2021-02-10, version 1.6.0*

I enjoy this game.l, however there’s a major glitch in the controls which causes your drone to twitch and roll left. You can even just tap the bottom right of the screen and watch it go sliding to the left. It happens midair too. Annoying and should be patched ASAP. This would be even better if it had open courses too, the straight gets slightly boring after a while although it is very difficult to navigate. Props to the makers of this game nonetheless! Happy flying!

### 3/5 — IMPROVEMENTS for (2021)

*2021-02-08, version 1.6.0*

Can you add a mode to fly OUTSIDE freely in any DIRECTION to have more fun AND allow to connect a PS5/PS4 or Xbox controller to control the drone. other than that the app is good

### 5/5 — Graphics are amazing

*2020-09-26, version 1.6.0*

Amazing graphics

### 2/5 — Drone flys to the left suddenly

*2020-08-15, version 1.6.0*

Can’t fly backwards, drone suddenly flys to the left with neutral controls

### 3/5 — 구멍이 너무작고 간격이 최악

*2020-07-29, version 1.6.0*

나머진 다 좋은데 제발 구멍만 조금이라도 넓혀주시오 그리고 그냥 회전 없앨수있는것도 좀

### 2/5 — Needs game pad control support

*2020-04-25, version 1.6.0*

Needs a support for Bluetooth gamer pads to properly simulate a real drone control

### 4/5 — Drone racing game

*2020-03-22, version 1.6.0*

This is awesome but needs a glit fix on the right stick when just touch it it makes the drone move left per touch, fix that so drone doesnt move like that and this is dead on pro!

### 4/5 — LOVE IT!!! But....

*2020-03-10, version 1.6.0*

I really LOVE this game. It’s a great skill and agility builder for fpv racing. I have one MAJOR frustration with this sim, however....in mid flight, the game will occasionally glitch and the drone will jump to the left. It’s just enough to make me crash as I’m approaching a gate!!!! I can be on a roll, doing really well, confident in my gate clearance, and this happens. I crash and then I can’t beat my previous score. It happens frequently and I wish you would fix this bug. 

Other than that, I love this app and will continue using it. It’s worth the frustration, I guess.

### 3/5 — Could you add a city for acro/freestyle?

*2020-03-04, version 1.6.0*

Freestyle with get this game so much better. Make the sticks less sensitive to. And make it have less fpv cam fuzz
