Mandatory flight schools for the parrot AR 2.0 drone! I wish I had had started on this before going out and crashing the real thing at minute 7 of flight. I am honing my skills with the simulator while my drone is in refit

The sim has a realistic feel and will reveal the coordination difficulties associated with operating the real thing. It is better to practicing Not crashing the sim vehicles before getting too brave with the real thing.

Decided to practice with this before flying the real drone. Controls are very laggy on S4. Will try it on S5 and edit comment. I plan to use this for a few weeks to gain understanding of the controls before venturing out into the real world with expensive hardware.

now I can't use it on my htc mecha, because it is now incompatible with my devide. I already paid for and can't use, and the dev is blaming google; at least that was his response to me.

The app is okay. The simulator feels real, and it is cheap at only 2,50. Issues: 1. There are only 3 places to fly. If you want a 4th one, it is extra. 2. The levels are too small, and they don't have a lot of stuff for you to do in them. 3. If you crash your drone, you can't pick it up and restart flying, you need to start all over. 4. You can't change your drone configuration in the middle of a level. You need to exit the level and go through the steps again. 5. The overall image quality is poor.

Doesn't work properly for Samsung Galaxy Centura, and not at all for Samsung Galaxy Proclaim. Flies up and down only, but not left or right, using on screen joystick or the tilt option. UPDATE: doesn't work on SIII either.

I have to uninstall and reinstall for it to work properly. Controls stop responding after each flight

Crashes every few seconds of flight then locks up . I don't see any of the scenes that are shown in the app store

With my NVIDIA Shield hdmi'd to my monitor, I'm getting a lot of practice before taking my AR Drone flying. This is a great app, especially on the big screen. Just like flying the real thing using my Shield.

I just got the nvidia shield. When I start the ardrone sim game I get a message that game control failure. joy sticks and buttons do not work but touch screen works fine. can anybody help?

Good to help master flying a real AR Drone without the fear of damaging it.

Q70%
by Q####:

This is great practice for the actual app without crashing up your real one. The controls are sometimes not as responsive as I would like and the rings outdoors are too difficult and small to fly through so i don't know what they are there for. Too make this realistic it needs flyaways for the 1.0 and absolute control for the 2.0 mixing up the controls so you don't know which way it will go resulting in a crash and more parts to have to buy to fix. This game is okay the real app needs the bugs worked out.

Brilliant. Easy to use. Loved it. Great training aid for ar drones.

Close enough to real thing to improve a beginners flying skills. Could save you some money and repair headaches.

Does exactly what the real thing does. Crash! I have a DJI Phantom 2 now. So I won't be needing this app anymore.

D70%
by D####:

I was expecting a little more for payed app but I hope the practice works for flying the drone itself

J70%
by J####:

Please make it work with the controller. That would be great.

E70%
by E####:

Good app but needs joypad sorting as left pad jumps off screen also needs more to the maps, cost me again for extra which i thought was cheeky considering i just paid for it. Woodland rivers & high buildings would go down a treat. Works a treat on samsung tab 4 10.1. Now ive tried the app its nothing like the real thing, your better off flying your drone in an open field, PLEASE REFUND.

by Z####:

Please refund me this game is not close to the money I paid for.

I have had an AR.Drone 2.0 for years now and just discovered this app. It is not perfect, but pretty amazing all the same. It works fine on my Nexus 4. No complaints. A few hours on this app can be just as much fun as flying the drone and your drone will probably last a lot longer if you practice with this before flying the real thing. If I had known about it earlier, it would have saved me from damage that cost me many times the price of this app, plus the down time waiting for parts.

I am able to see the mistakes I have been making flying the real thing without destroying it

Great way to prepare you to fly the real thing.

Great for rainy day practice

S70%
by S####:

Using on droid RAZR and verry laggy, graphics and options are nice tho. Recent but definitely a novelty, not so much a simulator .

T70%
by T####:

This is great! I can wreck the game drone and not mine! I have ordered the real thing can't wait! This has allowed me to get valuable training in! S4 with jelly bean!

I like being Able to crash the Sim and not my personal drone.

E70%
by E####:

Game center refuses to load on Asus m302 .. what does seem to work is virtually worthless in comparison to the real thing.

This one's a blast but the real one its even better get it!!!!!

This is my first remote and I guess it's going to take some time getting used to it the controls are very touchy but I guess that's how it's supposed to be with this device I like it alot and I'm determined to get through with this it is really something thanks for helping out with the simulator .

T70%
by T####:

Doesn't behave quite like the drone, although if you spend enough time tweaking the settings it might. You can fly through trees and sometimes the ground.

B70%
by B####:

I'm going to practise with this sim till my refund comes..then I'm buying one!

M70%

Nicely mimics real drone flight.

T70%
by T####:

This app has prepared me and honed my skills in flying the Ar Drone 2 and gives me confidence to fly and not spend near as much learning by damaging my Drone 2.0. Well worth the small cost.

L70%
by L####:

Lages a bit but great to feel the way it workes

T70%
by T####:

Great little app. Currently using it with Nvidia Shield (maybe you could add native controls like the real drone?) and gamepad mapper and this works very nicely, actually encouraged me to buy the real thing! Maybe you could try and work some deeper gameplay to app? Very nice anyway, good practice for the real thing!

T70%
by T####:

Would be a great app if the controls worked on a nvidia shield, tilt does not work and no option to map joystics etc.

N70%

Cool

O70%
by O####:

But no cigar, slugish.. tried on HTC one and galaxy tab 310, takes literally a minute to load. Doesnt replicate the drone in my opinion, played it once want a refund, unfortunately downloaded it twice for my two devices, so cant :( .. plus in app purchases.. when already paid for app...dont waist your money. Just use your drone in open space to practice.

I do not have an AR Drone yet, but this simulator is giving me an idea of what it is like to fly one. Not sure my tilt controls are working properly. May be user error!
