Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sauermann Pilot at none against HVAC's 3. Sauermann Pilot also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). HVAC's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 6 weeks). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
