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 youve tried the free version (which contains most of whats 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 arent 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.Theres now a forum for posting bugs, suggestions and general discussion at http://picasim.freeforums.orgThe 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, trainerPowered 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. Heres a video walking through the setup: http://youtu.be/HnM0YDfVArsPermissions: 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.• Add Litermonthalle Nalbach indoor scenery by Detlef Jacobi.• Improve object editing.• Improve plane scaling.• Graphical improvements. If upgrading on a low-end device, you may need to disable "Separate Specular" in the options if this causes too much slowdown.• Reduce the wind strength in front of slopes slightly.Please contact [email protected] with bug reports and questions.

This is really a great great app

Does not work on my tablet, need a refund!

Absolutely awesome. It's obvious that loads of thought has gone into this.

Million different aerodynamic settings and very accurate phisics. Lots of fun slope soaring on the cliffs! A+ here all around!

Fun

LOVE THE GAME.

I only have ONE game on my phone and it has been this one for years! I think I'm on my 3rd phone now and PicaSim is the only game I always download. In my earliest flights, I'd ALWAYS crash the powered planes, the sail planes, and even the hang glider. Now, I've finally gotten serious about REAL R/C flying (I have about 20 small and huge electric planes and motor-gliders), AND IN 2012 I BECAME A SOLO HANG GLIDER PILOT AS WELL! I LOVE THIS AVIATION APP!
