Fly a 5-inch quad from its own camera, with real acro physics. A gamepad or radio transmitter is required, including on phones.
Full rotation, direct radio throttle, and momentum you can work with. Pick a spot, set your rates, and fly solo with acro physics.
This is a full FPV simulator running in a browser tab. Nothing to download, nothing to install, no ads, and nothing to buy. Open a spot and you are flying in a few seconds with a gamepad or radio transmitter. On phones, connect a compatible controller.
Choose Angle mode to self-level when you release the sticks, or Acro for rotation-rate control. Both modes require a controller.
Body-axis rate control, the way a flight controller actually works: the sticks ask for a rotation rate about the craft's own axes and a PID loop chases it. Airmode keeps the loop authoritative at zero throttle, so a flip does not fall out of the sky. The throttle behaves like a radio's — direct, not a height target — and the pack sags under load and recovers when you back off, so a long punch-out costs you real voltage.
Any transmitter that presents itself as a USB joystick works: EdgeTX and OpenTX radios in joystick mode, and ordinary gamepads. Mapping, stick direction and calibration are on the controller setup page. Throttle can follow the stick's position, as a radio does, or be nudged up and down the way a spring-centred gamepad needs.
Four rate curves — Actual, Betaflight, KISS and Quick, on the same formulas Betaflight uses — with the centre sensitivity, maximum rate and expo you would set on a real quad. Acro, Horizon and Angle. Camera tilt is adjustable, which changes how the horizon sits and how the quad flies forward — the same trade-off as tilting a real camera up for speed.
There is a practice yard built for learning the sticks, and every world in the simulator is open to fly through. The cards above link straight into each one.
Most FPV simulators are paid downloads that need a gaming PC. This one runs in a browser tab, for free, on whatever you already have — which makes it good for learning, for ten minutes of stick time, and for machines you are not allowed to install software on, like a school laptop. A downloaded simulator will give you better graphics; this one will let you start now.
