A Glimpse into RC-AirSim
Learn to fly r/c model airplanes with this realistic flight simulator!
Please Note: RC-AirSim is a realistic r/c model airplane flight simulator, NOT an arcade game. And like a real model airplane, it will take some practice to master the basics. Luckily, in RC-AirSim, plane crashes are free (and fun)! Pro Tip: If you are a novice r/c pilot, start with the Slowmowatt in 3 Channel control mode.
RC-AirSim has been used successfully by many r/c pilots to learn how to fly a model airplane. RC-AirSim has more realistic flight dynamics and ground handling than most of the much more expensive r/c flight sims.
RC-AirSim Features:
· Many different model airplanes to fly including: F-15 Fighter Jet, WWI Biplane, Glider, Electric Parkflyer, Aerobatic Planes, and a Trainer.
· Realistic r/c model airplane flight aerodynamics based on NASA flight simulation technology.
· MFi (Made for iPhone/iPad) Twin-Stick Game Controller support.
· Accurate landing and ground handling simulation.
· Awesome crashes! Planes break apart in a physics-based manner.
· 4 channel control: aileron, elevator, rudder, throttle.
· 3 view options: R/C (Third person), Following (Chase cam), and Onboard camera (FPV)
· 3 control modes: Mode 2 (default), Mode 1, and 3 Channel.
· Field objects to avoid and fly behind.
· Doppler-correct sound.
· Touch Points or On-screen Transmitter Sticks control options.
· Get flying quickly! No slow, tedious menus or multiple load screens.
RC-AirSim is a favorite of radio-controlled model airplane pilots worldwide because it excels where it matters most: realistic flight dynamics and aerodynamics!
Tired of "simulators" that feel unrealistic and fly like an arcade game? Try RC-AirSim! Experienced R/C pilots say that RC-AirSim feels and flies like an actual r/c model airplane! R/C pilots, don’t let your skills get rusty when you are away from the flying field: practice with RC-AirSim. New to the hobby of r/c model airplanes? Learn on RC-AirSim first and make the maiden flight of your first r/c plane a successful one.

Nice rc sim! Feels like the real thing!
This game is amazing because every plane is free. But the only thing thats odd is the sound. The sound of the planes are a bit weird no offense but this game is awesome. We have been looking for rc airplane simulators forever but this is the best one that we have seen. Its amazing.
We’ve had this app for years, and very happy with it. This update is a great gift!
We really find it practical and easy to learn about application use.
Hi we love the game but ad wars and f4u corsairs.
This sim is our favorite! Nothing to buy, nothing to unlock. No canards or flying wings.. Thats its only downside so far!
Maybe you can add a feature were you can import user created planes.
Awesome Sim! The only possible negative is that there are no drones or helis but all the planes are excellent!
The game is pretty good but the only things we would like to change is make a quad and a sensitivity setting. Other than that the game is great!
This game is great and we love it but can you add more planes? They dont have much of an aircraft option.
We hate the graphics and we have a rc plane its nothing like the real thing.
It’s quick on downloading but the controls are very hard. We would like if you added easy controls.
This game had better crash physics before But now it is not great if you run into a tree trunk at full speed nothing happens. Before it would knock one of the wings off. We only played this for the crash physics. Now we Cant!!! Another reason to hate updates.
The controls are completely unresponsive.
Unrealistic planes. Very hard to control. Reaction lags constantly behind input. Terrible app. Uninstalled.
There are many games incompatible with iOS11, and this is one of them. Some games break the dock, some crash once and then are then unusable until uninstalled. This is one star the whole way. Crap way to treat paying customers by sneaking ads in. If you want to deprecate software, then stop updating it. Unethical.
We love this game it may not have the best graphics but its extremely fun and addicting we love the physics and realism it only has 2 planes tho that’s why we might buy full version because it has more planes!
We’ve really enjoyed playing this simulator but there is so much untapped potential! Please update this game!
We love the app. We would love some new planes to purchase.
May you please add altitude and speed indicators.
RC-AirSim is an excellent tool for training for model airplane flying. Now we have a flight simulator that can go with us anywhere. And while it would be impossible to get the controls to feel like the real deal the planes sure do. A couple of our favorite features: 1) the true outside feel when we’re flying, we can almost hear the birds 2) it’s not a game – so when we hand it to our 4 or 9 year old it’s something we can feel good about.
We kinda hate it because the planes cost a lot 2.99 that a lot Please lower the price for like 1.99 but its still a good game.
It will help you master rc airplanes.
The biplane is awesome. We are learning RC, but this seems forgiving, but not so easy as to be unrealistic. The scenery is a little weak, but the flight mechanics are awesome, and the crash damage is a good reminder that we need a lot more practice. The planes are a little expensive, but this app provides two excellent beginner planes, one is so easy that our 5 year could keep it going a bit the first time he ever tried. Really an excellent trainer. We hope the developer keeps working on it, because there is the makings of a great app here.
If you can successfully fly and land a plane in RC-AirSim then you can probably fly a real model. We use this to get some flying practice in between trips to the field.
We could play this game all day.
So realistic,and cool graphics!
This game is great and really realistic! The blue plane flys just like our super cub and it stalls the same way too! We really like how you made the plane just explode if you hit a tree or the shed. There IS plenty to do like flips or how low can you go sideways or upside down, and we like to just crash it to see if we can make it explode or if we can crash it with the least damage. This is one of our favorite games. This is a great game get it and try it out!
The Reson we love it iz because we’re not a hater.
We love this rc sim, especially the graphics and Doppler affect with the sound. We bought all the air planes on our ipod but we wish we could transfer our purchases to the xbox is we can have a more realistic controller feel. Also a change in scenery is well needed, we have spent so much time on this we know the place like the back of our hand.
Great app, we been flying rc planes for 3 years now and since the last update you guys nailed it. We only have one problem and its the trees and barn in the center of the flying field it obstructs you vision sometimes.
Good simulator but pls improve graphics and pls add a build you own plane mode!!!
- Add more free planes 2. Make the park bigger 3. Make the tree line a little more realistic (actually put trees there instead of a 2D image, and more realistic crashing) 4. Add more animations for the planes (moving propellors, moving rudders, etc.) 5. Increase max height 6. Put more detail (in the game overall, excuse us, simulator) Please dont take this as criticism, Im just throwing out some ideas for future updates. Wink Wink Ps. The toilet is clogged Ps2. Sony made them a while back Ps3. Theyre fun to play Psp. Is better than a DS Ps4. They are expensive.
It is a good game it is a vary good game.
We downloaded all of the rc plane simulators we could find. This one is our favorite. The best graphics. Best controls. Most fun! We do however wish there was more fields or an x shape runway. We absolutely can’t stand where the dude stands as his point of view doesn’t make it easy to practice touch and goes. It makes it very difficult to find the runway. We’ve spent money and bought additional planes. Now we really just want a difference in the terrain.
As an avid r/c pilot we have to say this sim is not very realistic. Planes are too nose heavy and very under powered. Moving on…
This app is horrible get rc plane 2 or absolute rc plane sim.
Controls shaky Pay $ for other planes (2.99) Impossible to drive DONT GET THIS APP.
Terrible can’t even control the planes.
It stinks because u always stall and u can’t do a Barrel roll.
This is really boring there is nothing to do on it if u want a fun game go to rc plane 2.
This simulator does not look as good as any of the other ones, and features no movable air surfaces. However, the controls are very fluid, and the airplane flies very realistically. It flies exactly how a high dihedral high wings trainer should! Best of all, it is free! However, we did purchase all of the airplane ask, because they fly realistic also. If you can fly this for 20 minutes without crashing, and take off and land 10 times in a row without crashing, you are ready for real RC airplane.
The single free trainer is challenging enough because controls are sensitive. We fly a loop, barrel roll, speed pass, figure eight, and land, repeat if no crash, just to stay practiced. Do it ten in a row & ready for real deal.
This game is so much fun! We have the xbox360 version and it’s almost identical! If you like RC planes, then you need to at least try this game! We hope the planes go on sale again soon!
The flight dynamics of this particular sim are exceptional and thus it makes this app a great tool for practice. Even though the graphics are not as good as some others and additional aircraft models may be a little pricey by some standards, this is definitely made up for with the usefulness that this app provides for simulating and testing your skills as an R/C pilot. Granted, the control rates, trims and weather are non adjustable, but the control response isn’t too twitchy like some other simulations. It’s also great to see that this particular app doesn’t reduce the art and fun of R/C flying into a game either, with needless challenges and other such nonsense as so many other available "R/C" flying apps do. Though it only comes with just one airplane (a basic trainer) for a free app in todays self-entitled world of "gimme, gimme," that’s A-OK with us because after all; this app is FREE. And though games may be fun, sometimes you may just wish to keep up on your skills when you can’t get out and fly, and we are glad to say that this is a true simulation and provides as much as can be done for a smart phone app.
