Our Expert Score

75/100

Electric RC Sim is a niche but highly effective tool for anyone looking to get into the hobby of remote-controlled flying without the expensive crashes. This isn't a 'game' in the traditional sense; it’s a simulator. The physics of the planes and quadcopters are intentionally difficult because they mimic real-world aerodynamics.

What it lacks in flashy graphics, it makes up for in utility. The virtual joysticks are surprisingly responsive, allowing for delicate maneuvers. For a beginner, practicing here for a few hours could save hundreds of dollars in real-life repairs. It's a bit bare-bones in terms of environments, but for someone wanting to master the 'nose-in' hover or basic circuits, it’s a solid, functional piece of software.

The app is optimized for touch controls, but some USB-to-mobile adapters may allow for external transmitter use.

Nice app!
Wed Aug 24 2016 JLW-123

I have RealFlight and Phoenix flight simulators, but only on my desktop. This app is on my tablet and allows me to have fun flying anytime I have a few minutes. Nice selection of different style planes for each flying preference. I also like the new quad....it would be nice if there were maybe a small beacon of light (LED) on the rear to keep me oriented. The black and green props can sometimes be hard to distinguish at a distance, especially if you do flips. And even though I don't fly with thumbs only on my transmitters, I have no problem making the adjustment at the flying field. I have tried almost every flight sim app in the App Store....this is by far the best!

Let me start by saying: this is a very realistic RC flight simulator. You will however want to upgrade to the advanced transmitter if you want to enjoy this sim to its fullest. My only gripe (if you could call it that) and more of a suggestion would be for the apps developer ‘s would be to ad multiple camera views, like: follow and cockpit view for example. Flaps and retractable landing gear are also a must and smoke would be a nice touch as well. This flight sim is great for novice as well as seasoned pilots. First time flyers will find it very easy to learn on and will save anyone lots -o- $$$ on damaged replacement parts/planes, etc. Five stars here folks!

Exclellent value; great training tool

For less than the cost of a 16 oz coffee, this little sim offers a way to start anew, or brush up on your RC flying skills. The choice of planes and quadcopters is great and they seem to me to be quite realistically modeled. I put about three hours of time on this sim before getting back into the air with an RC trainer after a 20-year hiatus. It definitely gave me the confidence to toss that new plane in the air and fly basic maneuvers again. The latest update includes a new flying environment and an aerobatic quad. Nice to see the developer offering substantial updates to his product.

Just what I was looking for!

I've had electric rc boats and cars for years. Every couple years I would build a plane only to crash it on its maiden flight(stall!) I'm not as good a pilot as I thought I would be. This app is easy to use and feels realistic. I was really able to see progress in my flying skills after a couple hours of practice. I'm so glad I didn't have to build all the planes I've crashed! I then upgraded for the extra fields(different wind conditions) and planes which have been fun to play with. Really for the price, it's a bargain!

Great app just missing a few things.

FPV view, Needs more rc models (cargo plane, boat plane, 4channel trainer with flaps, etc)and new parks with actual objects ( benches, trees, ponds, etc.). And possibly new parks with elevated ground, and other with ponds. And settings to change the wind power on each different map. Other wise I would recommend buying this if you want to have a rc alternative if you can't fly.

TIGHT

This is the best RC flight game on mobile. Planes go fast. Fun to fly. Good to play. No ads, which is wonderful, and only 2 total purchases possible. And …yes… the controls are TIGHT. The F-18 is the best plane. Invest in the full version, because the lite only has 3-CH trainer. You will love this game. but mostly you will love the F-18. It goes about 60 mph.

Ok, But Drone Physics Are Unreal
Sun Sep 04 2016 Derykianspecies

All of the RC planes are decent, but the drones have some weird physics. Instead of falling like a stone, they glide down slowly when throttle is off. Also, sometimes it seems the quad is overly smooth. It tilts dramatically but does not go fast. I really hoped the Drone 250 would help with racing drone skills, but these, along with other difficulties like flipping unexpectedly, make the drone sims useless. Overall, the planes' physics are ok, but they also need work on the physics while gliding.

Drone-Tastic!

I purchased this application to learn how to fly a drone before I actually flew one. This is the most useful application I have ever used on my iPhone. I am screen mirroring on my flatscreen using my Apple TV and I am well on my way to becoming a drone pilot! Thank you for this training application. Developers get ***** 5/5.
