### 2/5 — Hard to control!

*2023-10-25*

These helicopters are so hard to control if you want easy to control helicopters just download FlyWings 2018 those helicopters are very realistic and easy to control and you can fly any one of them by using a glitch. All you have to do is select the helicopter you want and then go back to an aircraft that you already own and press it a very quickly press fly now and then you will have the chopper you can also do this with any aircraft in the game.

*2022-01-09*

I downloaded this game thinking it would be pretty awesome but it’s hard to learn the controls, there is no tutorial on how to fly it, and you have to pay to unlock all the cool helicopters. I deleted the game and and moving on to a different one

### 1/5 — Worst simulator

*2022-01-09*

Seriously trash. One free helicopter. Purchased one and it was still garbage. Tried to restore my purchase and it won’t. Be nice to get my money back since it didn’t make a difference.

### 1/5 — Terrible game

*2021-05-30, version 1.0.3*

Here is some constructive criticism, add a tutorial on how to fly and add an option for the camera and fix the bugs, it’s near impossible to fly.

### 1/5 — Why

*2026-04-26*

Ok so the first thing is that you need fuel and it’s sooo hard to control it needs tutorials.

### 1/5 — Verschwendete Zeit

*2026-01-25, version 25.11.19*

Man kann garnicht Helikopter fliegen, sondern nur irgendwelchen bugs zusehen.

### 1/5 — Terible

*2025-07-18, version 1.0.3*

Do not let these images fool you. It’s fake advertisement. The actual games graphics are very poor and so is the gameplay

### 1/5 — This game is TERRIBAL

*2025-01-01, version 1.0.3*

YO LITERALLY EVERY ONE IS TALKING ABOUT HOW THE HELICOPTERS ARE WITH MONEY AND ONLY ONE HELICOPTER IS FREE THIS GAME IS JUST A ANDROID VERSION OF MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIM

### 1/5 — Would not play this game again.

Worst game ever so hard to control and thes not a thing to teach you how to play

### 1/5 — God Aweful

*2023-05-27*

The interface is blocky. Controls are minimally responsive. Overpriced packages. Bought “Premium” to get rid of ads but still have ads, ads obstruct game during gameplay. Absolutely ridiculous.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2022-11-21, version 1.0.3*

So I was going up then I just start doing barrel rolls and I hit the ground and my screen was still

### 1/5 — Junk

*2022-10-28*

How do you play any game that you are flying any type of aircraft and are expected to land it when you can not see your altitude and speed is covered up by advertising trash. Junk and deleted

### 5/5 — Flight simulator

*2021-10-02, version 1.0.3*

Great game needs more 3D buildings and hills and needs an automatic landing button when we get close to landing platform also trees would be nice and animals in ocean and bird life and other planes flying high above also gliders planes also maybe bison or cows and goats also would love a emoji or radio talk in game other than that great simulator needs a joystick approach as well I hate moving my iPad all over the place to steer
