RealFlight Evolution is a radio-controlled aircraft flight simulator. Take the pilot’s seat to fly model airplanes, helicopters, and drones in a digital environment, whether you are learning the controls or keeping your flying skills sharp.
Choose from hundreds of aircraft and a wide range of flying sites, including 3D fields and photo-based locations. Use a compatible RC transmitter, flight stick, or gamepad to control your aircraft and practice maneuvers.
Virtual instructor lessons and challenges offer structured ways to build skills. You can also edit aircraft and flying sites, and join other pilots in online multiplayer flights.
Many reviewers value the simulator as a way to learn or practice RC flying without risking a physical model, and describe it as useful for building control skills and rehearsing maneuvers. Some praise how the aircraft handle and the choice of models and flying sites, while others question the simulation’s fidelity or feel it has changed little over time. Complaints also recur about the price, dated presentation, and setup or technical problems.
