A simple drone “trainer” I made to save a drone or two. It provides an environment to get a grasp on how to fly a drone without crashing into the ground, ending the event in less than a minute.

Unlimited retries with a $2 app vs a $20 Test drone, that could have one use, your choice.

The “game” is very basic with hopes of developing a sense of finesse to real flying controls, and isn’t supposed to be a die-hard drone sim. More of a “practicing at the parking lot before hitting the main roads” type of game. What you see is what you get but I made the dang game, and can add in something later on.

Play in three styles; Direct view of the drone itself, through the screen on the controller, or through the Head Mounted Display which can be used to learn the basics of First Person View flying.

Notable Features:

Passthrough! If you want to fly within your home, then tap the underside of your player’s Right Wrist to switch over.

HMD/FPV! There’s an option to place a “headset” on for true fpv view; press the left trigger to switch modes and it’s a ‘button’ under the “WARNING HMD” mode layout.

There’s a “Camera” mode to help practice for beauty shots that need flight coordination at an odd angle; or angle the camera up for a First Person View feel!

Dual-rate (think of control sensitivity) is enabled to max to make sure new flyers can get used to the input, turning it off gives MUCH sharper input; becoming overall more acrobatic.

If there's a want to have a regular RC plane type, then shout out.

Best FPV simulator

Im a fpv Pilot and this FPV simulator is the best FPV simulator Ive tried so far. It has amazing graphics and is really realistic. It is perfect for people that wanna get into FPV. The Creator of this Simulator probably spend hours into this Masterpiece and its only a Dollar!

A decent start

At the moment it's serviceable. Controls are either super twitchy or pretty slow and unresponsive. Definitely needs some tweaking to be able to fly properly. What's here is decent though. It's super cheap so I'm happy to keep the app in the hope things are smoothed out. Would love a proper RC plane/heli VR app so hopefully this gives someone inspiration.

Update: A new lever has been added and hopefully addresses this issue!

I was wondering what the "goldilocks" zone would be for the Dual Rate buttons as subtle and whipping movements are closer to how one would fly a FPV drone.

I'll get on adding a "user preference" menu to tweak the dual rate throttle amount and a few other settings.
