# RC Flight Simulator 2016 vs APG

The clearest difference is rating: APG at 5.0 against RC Flight Simulator 2016's 2.9. APG also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 15) and ads (none vs shown). RC Flight Simulator 2016's advantage is review sentiment (27% vs 0%) and ratings volume (19 vs 3). On price, update cadence, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RC Flight Simulator 2016 sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. APG asks for nothing beyond the download.

APG holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RC Flight Simulator 2016 has 19 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of RC Flight Simulator 2016's written reviews are positive against 0% of APG's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
