RealFlight 8

Do not works and too many bugs. 1.Freez when you shift "alt", and shows "Error:D3DERR_INVALIDCALL" "File: DXDevice.cpp" "Line:118" 2. cannot change resolution (after changing it all the time goes back to various resolution but not to which you choose) 3. Anti-alaising and post anti-alaising doesnt works - straight limits/lines of models shows with a HUGE stages and like from 90s Do not recommend it to buy until they will fix all the bugs and issues.

Physics seems to be so far from real life. Gosh! Really, SO FAR! You can make a sequence of loopings with a giant B-25 without feel stall, for example. In pre-stall speeds, ailerons (in some airplanes) works so nice as if you were at 200 miles per hour. It's not like this in real life! Come! All airplanes seems so much heavier than real life, by the way. Some quads physics are bizarre. Really! It used to be the best R/C sim in the past. This version make me feel down. I compare it just like some kinds os RC sim you can get at App Store or Google Play to play on your mobile for free. If you have never tried piloting a RC plane, this GAME can just offer you some fun moments. Just this. If you are a veteran piloting RC Planes, you're gonna feel frustrated with it. Really! Beleive me! Tried to use a Flysky control and also my Futaba. All the same. Bad experience. Real Flight used to be a good simulator. But became some kind of poor game, witch you can challenge yourself on, play in mult...

Be aware This is a RC Flight Training tool NOT a game!! Downloaded installed runs perfectly!! Very happy customer.. since rf5 6 7 7.5 and now RF8 VR. combined old Interlink controller tethered to Optima 9 Tx with my HP Windows reality VR headset & GTX1070 Predator laptop this combination just simply ROCKS!!! Guys, when RF8 is used with reasonably decent hardware it is well worth the effort. However there are significant scale issues with some of the models especially when in VR mode and blurring of small models when u flypast. pixelation of heli models in VR mode is very disappointing. I hope knife edge take this seriously an fixes these fundamental software issues!! Otherwise we are a happy RF family.

A total non-starter unfortunately. Won't allow use of my Frsky Horus X10 in USB controller mode. Other sims do, but RF8 refuses to even start. Requesting refund.

I'm a beginner, when it comes to flying RC-Planes, but I noticed that the flight-physics in this simulator are quite off. You can fly realy heavy planes waaaay to slow, without stalling them ever. I guess this realy bad habbits and muscle memory in real world. Furthermore, promised and essential features, like editing/adjusting planes just lead to a crash "back to windows". Did not get any errormessage, did not find any logs. So cannot provide more Info. ATM I'm not quite satisfied. Feels as if I invested 100 € into the wrong simulator.

For years, and I have been using Realflight for years and many versions, it could have been considered a high quality marketing arm for Great Planes. As other manufacturers began to dominate the RC world, I chaffed at the bit at being stuck in the RC world of the 90's. I can't even count the number of times I paid for same basic aircraft models. There have always been nods to changes in the RC industry, but I can use up an entire hand for the times I paid for the next Realflgiht version and got the same models. I jumped at the Steam version to avoid yet another set of CDROMs. The fact that Realflight has opened the door to the dominant players in today's RC world is good, but for this price, Horizon Hobbies should not be an addon. In fact, Horizon should be looking at inclusion in this sim as a marketing strategy for selling their products. Switching Great Planes for another corporate overlord is not ideal for the users and potential Horizon customers. That said, this is the best RC ...

It's alright. I fly quads aka drones mostly in real life, and they are... bad to say the least. I'll list why below: -Ever try lowering your P gain to zero? Don't do that. This sim put it low. - Any roll causes them to fall uncontrolable -No air mode BUT! The planes and heli's are great. So 2/3 models are perfect

Apart from VR support, RF8 appears basically identical to RealFlight 7.5. However, compared to all other RC heli sims on the market, RealFlight is imo still by far the best all-round RC heli sim out there, despite physics not having been updated for quite a while. But then again, the physics are really, really, really good. The only probable reason it's not getting as much support from the RC heli community anymore, might be the forcing of major revision purchases, when generally no worthwhile major features/relevant helicopters/flying fields are being added. The recent change of RF 7/8/9 clients being able to join each other's multiplayer sessions, makes up for this a bit. But not nearly enough. What's also holding RF back atm, is the lack of modern helicopters. There used to be an active community for providing relevant up-to-date helicopter models, that community support pretty much died. Installing custom aircraft, is too much of a hassle for most end-users anyway. Other relevant...

Phoenix 5 has better 3d environments than this game does. I like flying pontoon boats, RF8 has 1 3d environment with water. 1! Also, why do all the environments look so dumpy? Like a dirt field next to a cracked out abandonded road. The planes fly great but I certainly expected much more from the environments for RF8 still a whopping $99.

Hey y'all, my quick review of why you should get this simulator as long as you have a r/c radio and dongle.... I'm using a DX6 with the dongle from HH. Let me give a little background about myself. I've been flying r/c for about 20 years and the last simulator I bought was Phoenix R/C about 6 years ago. I enjoyed the selection of models on that simulator. I'm mostly a park and UMX sized flyer now. In the past I was a 40 and 60 sized builder and flyer. I also had a 30 sized sport heli. Halfway through my hobby I switched to electric. Mostly foamies, but I still do balsa kits. Anyways, about a year and a half ago I bought a HTC system specifically for flight sims/dog fighting, which I got a good selection. War Thunder being my favorite cause of the MP. I'm also running a i7-6700, 16gb ram, 1080ti card. I've always wanted a r/c sim for VR.... Guess what I found last night!!!! RealFlight 8! WITH VFR!!! ((If you've ever been to the hobby shops and seen a r/c sim setup and it...
