Flight setup
Aircraft
Release angle and heading
Hold the button or spacebar, then release to launch the model. A short click gives a gentle launch.
Advanced settings
Changing aircraft or physical setup resets the flight.

Free flight: mechanical trim only. Direction keys do not steer this aircraft.
Real-time aerodynamics
Release the model and watch it fly naturally. Lift, drag, stability and stall follow the simulation state.
A living atmosphere
Drifting thermal cores, surrounding sink, wind shear and reproducible gusts.
Every flight tells a story
Record, replay and export genuine telemetry to compare your setups.
Flight recording
Launch a flight to record its telemetry.
Know your modelEstimated profile
Geometry and parameters are estimates. Free flight adapts the Paper Flight mechanics to these aircraft; profiles have no flight-test validation.
