About PicaSim: Flight simulator
PicaSim is a flight simulator for radio controlled aircraft. You can use it to learn how to fly, to practise aerobatics, or just to have fun flying around on a rainy day.
This is the full version - so if you've tried the free version (which contains most of what's here) and you enjoy it enough that you would like to support its past or future development (or just say thanks!), buy this to make a contribution.
If it helps, this includes some extras that aren't in the free version of the simulator:
- A variety of races - F3F-style and cross-country (the free version has just one race).
- Limbo (slope and powered) and thermal duration challenges.
- Planes: Two discus launched gliders (including the Ypsi Notos), GeeBee R2, Tigger (2.9m F3F slope racer), ASW15, "The Plank", magpie, and an electric version of the Neoslope. Also a quadcopter/drone and a very fast/aerobatic control-line plane, the Peacemaker.
- Terrains: Panoramic version of the "Mountains Dynamic Soaring" scene, plus a "Snowy Hills" scene (3D and panoramic) and two more panoramic scenes (flat field and slope).
Over time it will acquire additional planes/terrains.
There's now a forum for posting bugs, suggestions and general discussion at http://picasim.freeforums.org
The complete list of planes included is:
Gliders/sailplanes: ASW15, Banana, Canard, Discus, trainer, Neoslope, Genie, Icarus (DLG), Jart, Kato, Le Fish (standard & ultralight), Magpie, Notos (DLG), Phase 6, Plank (wing), Tigger (F3F), Trapeze, Weasel.
Electric gliders: Neoslope, trainer
Powered R/C planes: AcroBat, Extra (3D, normal and large size), F18, GeeBee R2, RT Eraser Five, High-wing trainer, twin-propeller delta.
Control-line: Extra, Peacemaker.
Other: Wasp (quadcopter), Moyes XS 142 (hang glider).
If your device is Android 3 or above and supports USB OTG, you can probably use an external USB gamepad or joystick, or even your R/C Transmitter (via an interface), using a USB OTG cable/adapter (very cheap). Its definitely worth trying. Make sure you connect the controller before running PicaSim, and then set it up in the settings->joystick menu. Here's a video walking through the setup: http://youtu.be/HnM0YDfVArs
Permissions: PicaSim saves settings to the SD card, mainly because it supports using user-generated content. It needs the "Phone calls" permission for Marmalade - and to handle interruption by incoming calls properly. PicaSim does not access any personal data on the device.

Its a great simulator but there are maps that are not even usable because as far as I know you cannot change your spawn location and it just drops the planes right onto its prop destroying it and it happens time after time and makes large amounts of game content inaccessible which is very frustrating if I were you I would make this a priority to fix.

A very fun and easy flight simulator to use. Can get as complicated as you want and is always updating.

I would like to be able to save the settings made to the plane and maps individually. That way when you modify things, they are saved as the modified original, instead of having to redo all the settings again. So when you select the plane next time it brings up the last version you flew. As well as maps remembering your wind/ thermal/ turbulence/ runway/ launch position. Oh and maybe a better quad. Thanks for all the work you've done with this sim,it's the best one by far and totally worth the 4 dollars! Update: I got a response from the app maker and he informed me that saving the different conditions were VERY save able. There is an annoying sound delay on my Samsungs s7 edge. It would be cool if wings broke from too many G's. I would still like a more applicable quad and more variety of powered planes like duckted fans maybe pulse jet or flite test foamies, maybe the option to bring in flight battery or fuel times that force you to land. Love the 3d maps. Thanks for the wonderful app!

Good SIM probably the best. you can't beat the real thing. Powered flight Gliders Helicopters Boats Cars get out and do it but if you can't this RC flight simulator feels as close as It Gets.

Loved the demo. This is even better. Pretty please add some helicopters... I mean it's still worth five stars, but I'd love you forever even more if you had a couple helicopters :-)

I have a few requests, though; maybe a few smaller, "toy-class" drones would help to increase variety a bit; from the cheapest low-quality brands like Air Hogs or Dromina. Or maybe even a trimmable paper aeroplane (yes, they are viable aircraft and can be trimmed.) And by the way, I LOVE the slope soaring; especially with the non-powered drones.

I like it be cause of the graphics, selection of planes, and the maps. The chalenges could use some adjustments. But, the game is good.

It's pretty realistic And awesome. Me and my dad had a lot of fun soaring around. I'm really hoping they add an a10 warthog and a fokker dr1 but this is one hell of a good game. Worth every penny. It would also be really cool if there was some kind of rc dogfighting

Needs some graphical setting adjustments but amazing game! I was hooked on the realistic physics and backgrounds, needs more planes and better drone options but if you're incorporating drones now than I would like to see 6 channel helicopters as well!

I love this sim but it would he even better if we could have an f3a model like a Galaktic or Citrin. Us pattern flyers are always left out.
