FPV drone simulator may help improve your skills overall
With all the online FPV drone simulators, which one is the best one for your commitment level, skill, equipment, and your end goal? While using an offline or online FPV drone simulator may help improve your skills overall by allowing you to form a muscle-memory. This is really a way to learn the basics if you never flew before and/or maintain your piloting skills when you can’t get out to fly. It is definitely the best way to decide if the hobby is for you by learning the skills needed to not crash the first pack you fly in real life. Online FPV drone simulators can be a real training device by allowing pilots to practice a track or even create their own. This allows the pilot to have a “muscle memory” of the track before they fly it for the first time.
There are many online FPV drone simulators out there to choose from these days. Assuming you are here for FPV drone racing and freestyle, we will fore-go the aerial photography simulators. Below is a list of simulators that work offline as well as online, they are called online FPV drone simulators because they are purchased online and downloaded.
Liftoff
This is probably the best known and longest-running online FPV drone simulator out there. It also probably has the most quantity of drones and environments to experience. It features adjustable PIDs and also has many online multiplayer features along with an in-depth track editor to create a real training tool by recreating an upcoming track. This is my number one pick for the best online FPV drone simulator.
VelociDrone
This simulator has graphics sub-par than whats on Liftoff but makes up for it with performance and physics. This online FPV drone simulator has some of the best physics and most “tweakable” settings to get it to feel as close to your real drone. Track editing is also available on this 2nd choice of online FPV drone simulators available.
DCL
This online FPV drone simulator makes it on the list because it is the latest and first to make it to gaming consoles like Playstation and Xbox. This sim has excellent graphics and playability for the beginner and expert. PIDs and other physics are adjustable as well. There are a variety of tracks for all skill levels and more to be added later.
