Review: RealFlight 9 is a radio-control flight simulator, only this is not for your £50 toys you got from eBay, it is for those with man-toys, that cost thousands and take a master-class to fly. This app is to help people learn to fly over 160 different RC aircraft. From aeroplanes to helicopters and even some industrial drones. You really do get what you pay for here with ultra-realistic graphics and industry-leading handling and physics. While this game was not made for VR it works surprisingly well in VR and does give the pilot an extra depth they might enjoy. But there is no game here, no real tutorials. In fact, if you don’t have one of the RC crafts it simulates there is almost no point in downloading it. But I can see to the right person this app is priceless, a place where they can practice over and over again without the fear of crashing an RC craft that cost more than my own family car.
