Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Project Artemis at none against Helicopter Simulator 2017's shown. Project Artemis also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 6 weeks). Helicopter Simulator 2017's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.4). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
