Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FishPond at none against RC Plane's 5. FishPond also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (70% vs 50%). RC Plane's advantage is ratings volume (2.4K vs 17) and iOS requirement (3.0 vs 18.0). On price, rating, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
