- 5 speeds of flight.
- The control is going by pushing on translucent arrows (in the version Gyro - the control is duplicated by gyro if desired): up, down, forward, backward, left, right.
- Application counts distance from one place - to another. So the user to better understand the geography. The application also counts the total distance that the user flies since the installation of the application.
- Counting of distances is possible in kilometers or miles.
- 12 beautiful places are preset in the app, where the user can be removed instantly. Among them: the Roman Coliseum, Mount Fuji, Sydney Opera House, Jesus the Redeemer (Rio), Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty, Burj Khalifa, Taj Mahal, and so on.
- User can save a beautiful places, give them names and share them with friends (who have installed the same application).

- When entered the coordinates of the place, the user can get there in three ways:
1. Instantly (Teleport) .
2 . Fly using the autopilot (Autopilot). User in this mode can change (if desired) the speed and the altitude, but no direction. If not desired to change speed and altitude, the app itself accelerates to soar upwards, then go down to the point and slow down.
3 . Fly from the current position, conducting flight by user himself, focusing on the direction arrow in the corner of the screen (Pilot).
