Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: VelociDrone at every 2 months against Drone Flight Simulation's every 23 months. VelociDrone also leads on chart position (#123 vs unranked). Drone Flight Simulation's advantage is price ($2.99 vs $7.99) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
