This app is basic, but it is the only app I could find that allows a pilot to practice with the actual remote. For that reason, and because it performs its basic functions well, it deserves five stars.
With a simulator like this, a pilot can develop key skills without the cost and risk of operating their aircraft. Don't judge this app as a toy or video game, consider it a training aid for drone pilots. Currently, only FPV is supported; but I think new, aspiring, pilots will find value in this app for the following uses:
• Practice smooth, cinematic, filming techniques coordinating both sticks and the gimbal control (orbits, tracking, etc.)
• Practice precision flying and obstacle avoidance
• Experiment with different control modes safely (Mode 1, Mode 2, etc.) to discover what works best for you
• Practice aerial inspection techniques
• Practice safely in 'sport' mode
• Practice when weather or other flight conditions have you grounded to keep muscle memory keen
