Learn to Fly Risk-Free!

What if you could learn the basics of controlling an R/C airplane in a totally safe environment - an environment in which absolutely NOTHING could harm your model? That may sound like a dream, but it can be a reality - and you can make it come true by using a computer R/C flight simulator as your introduction to flight. If you can install and play a computer game, you know everything you need to get started flying with an R/C flight simulator.


Great Planes® RealFlight® G5

The Most Realistic Recreation of R/C Flight Ever Returns…
with All-New Multiplayer Features!


Over 75 aircraft to fly! Over 30 flying sites to explore!

  Experience the unrivaled realism and all-out fun of RealFlight G5 – the latest version of the world’s best-selling R/C flight simulator! Like previous editions of RealFlight, G5 is the easiest, most worry-free way for you to learn how to fly without the risk of costly crashes. RealFlight also makes it easy to fine-tune your skills without having to make a special trip out to the flying field.
  If you enjoy multiplayer flying, you’ll find that G5’s improved Multiplayer mode has a lot to offer. One G5 improvement is that you can fly with multiple pilots at once – most other flight sims only allow a small handful of flyers.
   Using G5’s easy multiplayer session management, you can invite all those additional pilots to join you in fun-filled combat scenarios. They’re an exciting change of pace after a session of “serious” flying. The dynamic Dogfight mode lets you activate your targeting system, lock onto your opponent and shoot him down, while the explosive Rocket mode lets you fire upon your enemy in exciting, one-on-one showdowns. You can even take part in Paintball and Streamer Cut modes, too!
  Also with G5, you’ll be able to place on-board video cameras anywhere you like on your aircraft — or put yourself right in the pilot’s seat, so you can experience each flight as you would inside the cockpit. There are many other enhancements, such three new 3D flying sites and six new aircraft, joining all of your favorite RealFlight features: the Futaba® InterLink® Elite 8-channel controller with digital trims and QuickSelect™...over 5,000 square miles of TrueLife Terrain™...and much, much more.

InterLink Elite Controller by Futaba
 
QuickSelect
A full-feature transmitter with digital trims and QuickSelect: The multi-patented, easy to use InterLink Elite is also the most versatile flight sim controller you’ve ever seen. It’s designed after Futaba’s popular 6EX — complete with digital trims! Prefer to use your own R/C transmitter? The interface you need is already built-in. With MultiMode™ you can even use the controller and interface simultaneously — a feature no other simulator has.   QuickSelect™: Controls all basic software functions — virtually eliminates the need for mouse and keyboard! Apply filters to QuickSelect’s easy-to-use menu to narrow down your aircraft options for faster, simpler set-up.

Collision Detection
Depth of Field Effect
Water Takeoffs and Landings
“Full Coverage” Collision Detection: Hundreds of sensor points blanket an aircraft — providing the most realistic reaction to impacts you can imagine. Depth of Field Effect: Turned on, it keeps your model the visual focal point of your simulation — while anything that falls outside of its immediate vicinity loses sharpness. Water Takeoffs and Landings: Select any of G5’s float-equipped aircraft to turn ponds, lakes and oceans into landing strips.

On Board Cameras
On-Board Cameras: Use the Aircraft Editor to add cameras to your plane or heli, just like any other object.
Moveable Camera Angles: Change video angles from your controller! Activate servos using a switch or rotary knob to rotate the camera position.
First Person Video (FPV): Another RealFlight R/C simulator first! FPV puts you in the pilot’s seat, experiencing your simulated flight as you would from inside the cockpit.
Improved Cockpit Details: Selected aircraft increase the impression of being “inside the cockpit” by including window frames, wings, engines and other detail in first-person views.

Night Flying
Targeting System
TruFlo Wind Dynamics
Night Flying: Orient your flight to lights on the field below. Test your skills at the nighttime 3D Obstacle Course or check out the 3D Nighttime Carnival. Targeting System: In Combat Events, select a single opponent from any number of participants and track his movement throughout the virtual arena. TruFlo Wind Dynamics™: You designate wind direction and speed, from blustery to mild. Several flying sites support Dynamic Slope Soaring and hand-launch gliders.
