### 4/5 — Gut,aber ein paar Sachen fehlen!

*2025-12-11*

Wäre schön wenn man Hangwind segeln könnte 
Und ein paar größere Modelle wie Asw 28 oder auch F3B / F3J .
Ebenfalls fehlen Helikopter 
Aber für das Geld ist die App gut!

### 4/5 — ドローンの練習に最適

*2021-03-28*

外に飛ばしに行く時間がない時や、練習に飽きた時などは思う存分に操縦の練習ができるので、とても良いアイテムです。色んな機体が個性的な動きをするので、極めれば知らぬ間にドローンの操縦技術も上がるように期待しています。このゲームのヘリコプターも出して欲しいと思います。

### 4/5 — Good Game

*2020-08-26*

Lite version of this is not so hot but this is a good game. I paid for updated controller and never saw any difference in the controller. Well, I reckon the programmers need to be paid for their effort. Its still a really good game.

### 5/5 — Drone-Tastic!

*2019-06-24*

I purchased this application to learn how to fly a drone before I actually flew one. This is the most useful application I have ever used on my iPhone. I am screen mirroring on my flatscreen using my Apple TV and I am well on my way to becoming a drone pilot! Thank you for this training application. Developers get ***** 5/5.

### 5/5 — Very nice,addictive!

*2019-06-21, version 1.4*

More drones/ auto correct,return

### 5/5 — Great could be better

*2019-05-02*

Great app but needs more airplanes

### 5/5 — Great value

*2019-02-17*

Nice simulator. I am feeling more confident with only one nights practise to get back to my FT Cub. I was too heavy on my tx controls.

Would there be more add ons for this. Eg wind direction, speed, altitude. And to use my tx through a dongle would be icing on the cake.

For the price, overall I would say great value and thanks for a most useful tool.

### 5/5 — I absolutely adore this app!

*2018-10-15, version 1.4*

This app is so much fun, played it for over two hours on the first go!
KHaving recently ordered my first rc plane this app has given an invaluable insight as to how planes fly and what to expect when controlling one as a novice. 
I’ve moved over from quadcopters and have been apprehensive about flying (crashing) my new trainer plane. I’m still nervous for my maiden flight tomorrow but am going into it knowing more about how the aeroplane will behave and how to correct mistakes (ie pull the roll stick to the same direction of the lowest wing when it’s flying towards you). 

Excellent app well done.

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2018-07-10, version 1.4*

Best game ever this app is, you can fly for hours nonstop changing planes between lots of different planes, drones and future hovering devises

### 3/5 — FPVがあれば…

*2018-06-17*

acroモードは購入すれば追加可能の模様。
（現時点で240円）
なので、FPV視点でプレイ出来れば、iPhoneでプレイできるシミュレータとしては満足出来そうなのですが、ねぇ。

### 4/5 — Nice Sim

*2018-05-09*

I’ve tried a couple other sims but this is by far the best. Needs a couple Heli models to round out the selections.

### 3/5 — 3 stars for effort

*2017-07-04, version 1.4*

Drones does not hover... period.

For comparison, try pica sim for powered planes. In my opinion the best. (By far)

Smooth graphics.

 Good for practice on RC flying.

### 5/5 — Sehr Gut !

*2017-04-17*

Ich würde mir auch Helikopter oder kleine Missionen wünschen, sonst perfekt ;)

### 5/5 — Just amazing!

*2017-04-10, version 1.4*

Just amazing!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work correctly on iOS 17

*2023-09-26, version 1.4*

Three of the 4 controls work correctly, the Yaw control (left to right) on the left stick doesn’t work on iOS 17.

### 1/5 — Enjoy My Money

*2023-08-17, version 1.4*

Paid for this app and it won’t even start on phone or iPad even after trying all the recommended fixes.

### 1/5 — $2.99 for crap

*2018-06-12, version 1.4*

Flying wing starts out in the sky, and just falls to the ground.  I purchased this just for the wing.  Save your money.

### 1/5 — Bad sim

*2014-06-10*

The models are too small making it hard to visualize. The scenery is good but does not bring realism to the sim. You fly towards a tree or a light post and you never seem to make it or hit one. One star the most!!!

### 1/5 — Bof bof

*2014-02-24*

Pas très réaliste ....
Image du pilotage figée, on arrive pas a suivre l'évolution du drone.....
Très basique, passer votre chemin.
Je déconseille !

### 2/5 — Geht so

*2020-04-05*

Für Flugzeuge sicher gut aber wenn man FPV mit einem Quad fliegt echt sehr schlecht, man kann nur LOS fliegen und acro Modus? Das ding macht Flips wenn man es zwingt aber mal überkopf fliegen geht nichtmal, das ist eher ein schlecht umgesetzer horizonmode. Enttäuschter Fehlkauf. Nicht zu empfehlen für Quadkopter!!!

### 2/5 — Scarso

*2019-08-01, version 1.4*

Anche no... non c’è neanche la possibilità di modificare i comandi

### 2/5 — Needs updated

*2017-04-15, version 1.4*

Fun game but hasn't been updated in a while. Needs new planes and locations.

### 2/5 — Ok, But Drone Physics Are Unreal

*2016-09-05*

All of the RC planes are decent, but the drones have some weird physics.  Instead of falling like a stone, they glide down slowly when throttle is off.  Also, sometimes it seems the quad is overly smooth.  It tilts dramatically but does not go fast.  I really hoped the Drone 250 would help with racing drone skills, but these, along with other difficulties like flipping unexpectedly, make the drone sims useless.  Overall, the planes' physics are ok, but they also need work on the physics while gliding.

### 2/5 — Moyen

*2016-01-02*

La maniabilité est correcte mais on regrette vite le manque de possibilités et de réglages. Sur fond photo, le jeu manque de profondeur et tes vite de détails. Les modèles sont variés et on pourra s'essayer à de nombreux types de vol mais globalement le jeu devient très vite ennuyeux.

### 5/5 — Very fun to do when bored

*2025-11-07, version 1.4*

When I am bored I hop onto this game and it passes time quite well, very lovely when I have to wait at places

### 5/5 — I love this app!

*2024-06-15, version 1.4*

I downloaded the app in anticipation of getting some virtual experience before trying to fly an actual RC plane. It is very challenging if you have not flown an RC aircraft before, and I can’t say how realistic it is. However, I have spent a tremendous amount of time mastering the 3 channel cub, before moving on to 4 channel aircraft and the jet. I have just acquired my first electric RC plane, and I’m putting in some more training hours in the hope that when I fly the actual model I will have more of an idea how to fly and land. I’d recommend this app to anyone who might be considering the purchase of an RC aircraft or if you are looking for a challenge!

### 5/5 — TIGHT

*2023-04-27*

This is the best RC flight game on mobile. Planes go fast. Fun to fly. Good to play. No ads, which is wonderful, and only 2 total purchases possible. And …yes… the controls are TIGHT. The F-18 is the best plane. Invest in the full version, because the lite only has 3-CH trainer. You will love this game. but mostly you will love the F-18. It goes about 60 mph.

### 5/5 — Sein Geld wert.

*2022-10-14*

Eine tolle Simulation, würde mich noch freuen wenn eine Kompatibilität für Mifi Controller existieren würde.

### 5/5 — Best drone simulation game

*2022-07-24, version 1.4*

Kudos to the developers this is the best most realistic drone simulation flight game I found on the App Store the physics and the controls are great and very true to life, better than anything else I’ve tried out of about 12 others.

### 5/5 — I love the game

*2022-01-30*

I love this game so much and it’s so much fun I hope you can make more fun.(the nickname was not working so I had to put in a crazy nickname)

### 5/5 — Отличный симулятор

*2021-04-17, version 1.4*

Спасибо за качественную физику и графику! Топ!

### 5/5 — Sooo good ! But

*2021-03-17, version 1.4*

It’s a really good game but it would be better if you can choose your own background from your photos

### 5/5 — Electric RC Sim

*2020-11-06*

Let me start by saying: this is a very realistic RC flight simulator. You will however want to upgrade to the advanced transmitter if you want to enjoy this sim to its fullest. My only gripe (if you could call it that) and more of a suggestion would be for the apps developer ‘s would be to ad multiple camera views, like: follow and cockpit view for example. Flaps and retractable landing gear are also a must and smoke would be a nice touch as well. This flight sim is great for novice as well as seasoned pilots. First time flyers will find it very easy to learn on and will save anyone lots -o- $$$ on damaged replacement parts/planes, etc. Five stars here folks!

### 5/5 — ドローンは追加のオプション購入をお薦め

*2019-11-23*

ドローンの練習用のソフトを探していました。通常版では、高度センサーの無いバーションですが、追加のコントローラーを購入してHOlDスイッチを入れると、某大手のドローンの様にホバリングが安定して実機とほぼ同じ動きをします。
固定翼のシミュレーションも良くできています。日本で一般的なプロポのmode1も選べます。
