Later on we designed a more modern race drone type of flight controller component, and users can make use of it anywhere they like, but the only stock model that uses it is the Rise RXS255. They are good simulations of the technology they were emulating at the time, but that particular branch of the hobby underwent a tremendously rapid evolution, with the technology and capabilities changing and improving seemingly monthly. So it's important to pay attention to the intended purpose and design of each model. Sometimes people load up a camera platform like the Quadcopter X or Octocopter and complain it doesn't fly like their race drone, or vice versa. I should note that these cover a wide range of different drone designs and functionality.

Two additional models are available as unlockable challenge rewards: RF7.5 contains the following drone-type models: But in 7.5 you can only filter for airplanes and helis, with drones being lumped into the latter category. In later versions of RealFlight you can in fact filter for drones in the Quick Select dialog. I'm unable to make any guarantees one way or the other, though, and don't want to suggest any kind of timeframe. Just because it hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. So far that extra time has not been available. It's not just a content dump, unfortunately. To add everything to 7.5 we would need to find time above and beyond what is required to meet our previously mentioned obligations. Nevertheless, for numerous reasons we want to add them there, and our publisher wants it to happen, too. We are currently in a position where we have certain obligations to our publisher which do not include moving these extra models to 7.5. Let me know if you'd like an actual list.įor what it's worth, I completely understand where you're coming from. The original versions were retained, too, as "Classic" variants. The more rudimentary gyro-stabilized models you have seen in 6.5 were updated to take advantage of the new technology. The relationship is a bit more collaborative than characterized above, though.Īs others have done a good job explaining above, there are quite a few multirotors included in 7.5, all using a proper modern-day multirotor flight controller. It's true that Great Planes is our publisher and as such has a lot of say in what we produce.
