ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Traxxas Flight Link holds the better App Store score, 3.6 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Traxxas Flight Link has 16 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of Traxxas Flight Link's written reviews are positive against 100% of Orqa FPV.Ctrl's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Traxxas Flight Link ships an update every 8 months, Orqa FPV.Ctrl every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 19, 2026 respectively.
