VelociDrone is widely regarded as one of the best FPV simulators on the market for a reason. It perfectly captures the complex physics of quadcopter flight, making it an essential tool for both novice pilots and competitive racers. The 'Nemesis' mode is a standout feature, allowing you to race against recordings of other pilots to refine your lines and stick movements.
The level of community involvement is what truly gives this sim longevity. With a robust track editor and a database of tens of thousands of community-made tracks, you’ll never run out of environments to fly in. Whether you're practicing Freedom Spec racing or just free-styling in a diverse industrial park, the feedback from the controls is as close to real life as mobile simulation gets. It’s a professional-grade training tool disguised as a game.
Industry-leading FPV flight physics
Massive library of 10,000+ tracks
Advanced track editor for the community
Diverse drone classes (Freedom Spec, Street League)
Online multiplayer and Nemesis racing modes
If you're new, start in Single Player mode on a wide-open map. Focus on 'level' mode before switching to 'acro' to get a feel for how the drone reacts to throttle and pitch.
Join the online multiplayer to race against live opponents or use Nemesis mode to race against the ghost recordings of the world's fastest pilots.
VelociDrone supports most USB radio controllers for an authentic flight experience.
So not a single one of my transmitters is able to be connected and the digital controllers are extremely buggy. Also there’s something wrong with the settings of the controller. It’s not able to connect to anything. I love the way everything looks but in reality it’s just looks. This app won’t survive if it’s not constantly updated please I recommend for you guys to update it. I’m giving a three stars because I know you guys can do better and can fix these bugs. Please fix it. We didn’t pay $23 for no reason we expect a good excellent game.
If you’re like me and looking for a FPV simulator to practice on using a radio controller DO NOT bother with this. I have everything setup correctly including my Jumper T Pro w/ELRS WiFi successfully connected and the app is pretty much useless. First of all, you can’t use the app without signing into an account that you can only create through a browser. The app won’t even give you a menu. Fine, exit the app and use a browser to create a login. You get logged in and now have to figure out the way to enable your radio so you can use it as a controller. That option was buried in the settings, not on the controller setup screen. Once you have the radio connected and all of the sticks calibrated, you can finally get to fly using a controller. Next problem you’ll immediately run into is that in order to use a radio controller you need to connect to it via iPhone/iPad WiFi settings and this immediately sets the device to offline since you’ll have no internet when connected to the ELRS WiFi. This when you realize none of the maps show as available offline and can’t be launched. The work around is to disconnect from the ELRS WiFi and launch the app again, find a map that shows up as available offline and launch it, then go back to connecting via ELRS WiFi and try again. I was eventually able to get my radio setup and calibrated, launched an offline available map only to find that the in game quads were responding to the controller so I gave up.
I set my nephew up on a Radiomaster Pocket connected to WiFi. The throttle and yaw worked when I set it up but it inexplicably stopped working. No changes were made on the radio side and I double checked the channel mapping my checking the outputs. I’ve tried everything I can think of to get those channels recognized but it doesn’t work anymore.
This sim is incredible. I 100% recommend it and it pairs perfectly with my radiomaster pocket. The only reason I’m rating it 4 stars is because I was experiencing some issues with getting my controller to connect and the races to load. After deleting the app and reinstalling it, everything seems to work fine. Thank you so much for this INCREDIBLE app. Much better than other iOS sims.
I am very happy to be able to use the Black Sheep simulator on mobile to practice FPV. This is currently the only app that can use the elrs wifi to connect the remote control, but there is no Chinese language in the interface, which makes some functions incomprehensible to me. I hope the developer can add localized languages and services in the future.
Yes, it is difficult to set up, but it is possible to use this with a real transmitter by connecting the ELRS 2.4 ghz module over WiFi. As far as I know there is no other option on iPad to use a simulator with an actual transmitter, so huge props to the developer for figuring out this workaround.
Not sure why everyone else on the ratings was giving it no less then 5 stars. It's the only simulator that you can use your mobile device that has true physics. In my opinion, I wish I would have bought the ELRS 2.4ghz sooner just to use this app.
Crossfire micro V2 on latest beta wifi firmware and beta main firmware was required but it worked 100% solid after updating. Cool to not have to pull the pc out for a quick virtual session.
