# HF GPS vs RC FPV

The clearest difference is rating: HF GPS at 3.0 against RC FPV's 2.4. HF GPS also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). RC FPV's advantage is update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (501 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

HF GPS holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.4.
