Professional RC flight simulator - a must have for anyone flying RC. Probably the most realistic behavior on mobile phones and tablets. Our models fly the same as real RC models, in real RC flying fields. Do not fly your real RC model before trying this program! Don't crash your models, crash ours! Crashing models here cost nothing.This application will save you money, frustration and many days in waiting for model parts. Learn to fly without fear. Rain or wind outside, start flying right now! The program includes wide range of RC planes and helicopters, from starter models to expensive aerobatic and scale models. This is the only RC simulator that includes RC boats and RC cars, in addition to excellent simulation of RC planes, RC helicopters and RC drones. Great for experienced modelers, and even greater for kids or someone who is just starting in this exciting hobby. The program includes 3 free interactive object sets that can be loaded on any flying field when flying helicopters. The interactive objects can be used to learn landing and precise model control. In addition to the fixed point camera that represents the RC pilot point of view, we have included follow up camera, and pilot view camera. That is very useful when you are learnings because the model never gets away. Notes: 1. This is not a game. You are controlling flying RC models that reacts like real flying models. It takes some time to learn, and is not easy. 2. The onscreen control sticks are just indicators! They are made small so they do not obscure the screen. 3. Sliding your finger anywhere on the right screen half affects the right control stick , the same for the left screen part - sliding finger there moves the left control stick. You do not need to keep your fingers on them. The program includes intelligent Auto Pilot that can help you with some or all of the controls. Please use it initially the get a feel of flying and progress faster. We suggest to select beginner settings at first few days before you can comfortably progress further. Have fun and keep flying!

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: HoverCrafts at 5.0 against Absolute RC Simulator's 4.5. HoverCrafts also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). Absolute RC Simulator's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 50%) and ratings volume (5.4K vs 1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Absolute RC Simulator sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. HoverCrafts asks for nothing beyond the download.
HoverCrafts holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Absolute RC Simulator has 5.4K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Absolute RC Simulator's written reviews are positive against 50% of HoverCrafts's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
