Progress your RC flight skills! RealFlight 9.5S Overview & Game Play
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 июл 2024
- Simulators are a great way to learn to fly for the very first time or for more seasoned pilots to progress their skills and try new models. Horizon Hobby just released the latest version of their tried-and-true RC flight simulator RealFlight 9.5S. It comes in two options - one with a USB controller, or the download version only. In this video, I walk through how to install it, different controller options, and game play.
RealFlight is only available on PC at the moment. Thanks to Horizon Hobby for providing this product for review on my channel. Views are my own.

Here's the latest edition of RealFlight: bit.ly/3El5ApO
For those looking to run this on a Mac - someone said "You can run Real Flight on a Mac using Apple’s Boot Camp. I’ve done it on my MacBook Pro."
Yes you partition your hard drive and run windows on your partitioned hard drive. 👍🏼👍🏼
Very cool introduction video! I've been flying on RF since 2014. I host on multiplayer every night (Patrick's Ultimate Airport). This will be a great video to share with people that might be interested in the hobby. Thanks for making it!
Highly recommend this sim or upgrade. This is a great tool no matter if you are a beginner or an experienced Pilot. As you progress you can adjust the sim to hone your skills. Plus you can try many new tricks, crash, and hit the reset button without the loss of your real plane. However, get out a fly the real deal when you can. Love this hobby. Good time to be in it now with all the new tech out there to make it easy to
learn. 👍😉
Agreed!! 👌🏼
Crazy how when you look for answers and knowledge and you are drawn to the answers! As you see from my name I mix commands, kill throttle when I want to add, nose down when I want to climb, call me Crash! I've been using free simulators since I saw one of your videos speaking about them. It helps with the orientation when the plane is coming towards you as opposed to going away. I'm still making the mistakes more than I like, but it's less painful on the screen than in the field! Going to go check the field, will post, stay tuned, thank you.
Two thumbs up on the Trojan. I have the original from back in 2008 (red and white) and basically the same plane though it was the Parkzone model from Horizon. I've decided to get back into the hobby and brought it back out and cleaned it up. Had to replace one wing servo and the nose gear mount. I hope to put it back up within the next few days. It was my first 4 channel and always has had a special place in my collection. I'm still using RF 4.5 if that tells you anything. Thanks for the vid!
My first experience flying CP helis in Real Flight I was convinced the sim was broken. No way it could be that difficult. Well, turns out the sim is easier as it doesn't cost you when you crash so you don't get the rattled nerves of flying a real one. Helis are crazy difficult at first but an absolute blast and adrenaline kick once you get the hang of it. Keep at it RC Girl!
Real Flight will definitely save ya a ton of money while learning helicopters. I really master everything on the sim before bringing it outside.
Yep, helis are brain bending at first.
CP helos are a whole other world. When I started in it I was told the most accurate analogy I've ever heard.
"Flying a CP helo is like holding a 12" circle of glass on the palm of your hand. Place a glass marble in the center of the glass. Roll that marble all over the glass without it falling off and purposely stop it in exact places on the glass, only by rolling and rocking your hand. You simulate landing it... bring the marble back to and stop it exactly in the center of the glass."
They're tough!!! But it just 'clicks' eventually. Controls become second nature. But unless you have many thousands of dollars to burn... highly suggest many many hours of simulation.
So much more fun than planes though!!!
Fun video! LIked seeing the various models and flight fields and the various options. I currently have version 7.5 and 9.0 in a box that I need to install, hopefully my 7.5 interlink controller will work with version 9.0 and free upgrade to 9.5
Awesome..thanks so much for video..mine just came in mail yesterday...will set up when I get home today.. can't wait.
Nice video, definitely going to pick this up for those winter days where flying is out of the question.
Thanks RC I just brought one to help me learn to fly Sailplane since I live in Cold Weather. My Coach said buy a Simulator so I can get use to the sticks movement. I just saw you today and will join you. Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 Greg of Ohio
I own the NX8 and the NX6 and both work with the SPMWS2000 Dongle. I updated my Real Flight 9.5 to the 9.5s yesterday and it seems to be a lot better so far. But I haven't used it that much as of yet. I learned a few things from you video that I didn't know. So Thank you for that! ;)
Enables any DSMX or DSM2 transmitter * to connect wirelessly as a USB game controller
* Not compatible with the DM9 Module, DX7 Gen 1, or the DSM2 version of the DX5e
"Airbird? Warbird!" Cute! ;) Cool Video, actually also discovered something I was looking for (dual rates settings)... Cheers from Switzerland!
Its very helpful to always take off and land into the wind. And leave some power on when you come in for a landing!
Maybe not the best graphics, but for sure the best physics imo. Great video! ✌
Nicely done. Thanks for sharing as always. Cheers
RC girl, thank you for the information, this helps me a lot. I am hoping to start flying things hopefully soon.
Nice.
Maybe it's time to dig out the old realflight for a small update👍
Nice vid✌️
I purchased Realflight Evo yesterday, and am overall pretty pleased with it. I also have Accurc, which is good, but I wanted something that included Horizon models as I am a pretty big fan of them. Works fine with my modest laptop. One thing I will mention, some folks may be put off by having to access it through Steam. Actually once you are familiar with it, it is pretty nice. You do not have to be connected to the internet to run RF once it is installed. I have a couple of different options for controllers, but I wish the new controllers were a little cheaper. I really don't like using my transmitters as controllers. I have an old Efly 4 channel controller that is pretty good, but you have to use the keyboard shortcuts for channels 5-9. Nice video, as always.
Awesome review...made my mind up. Thank you!
I also run Real Flight on my iMac. Like the other person who commented, I also started out using Bootcamp with Real Flight a number of years ago which was pretty solid, but I recently upgraded to a newer faster iMac and chose not to use Bootcamp. Instead I installed Parallels and then run Windows on top of that, which runs great "and" I can switch back and forth between Mac and Windows on the fly.
Your twisty things and flippy things are really coming along 😀👍
😂
great way to learn indeed 👍🏾💯
Amazing thank you for sharing 😄
Tnx for a great, informative video...
I ordered my 9.5s and a doggle last night..
I sent a text
I like your logo :D ! That is a cool design. Allways thinking, when i see it. Greetings from switzerland.
Thanks!!
I have enjoyed your videos, and I am glad you are happy with this program. Unfortunately, my experience has been quite different. I didn't have a PC, so I looked at other Sims. Ending up downloading Aerofly 9RC for my M1 Mac. Aerofly is outstanding. I still wanted to practice on the Eflight models I owned, so I bought a used PC (pretty fast one) and downloaded RF Evolution. I am very disappointed that RF does not include many of HH best selling planes. Having said that, when I run these two programs side by the side, the difference is beyond description. The AF sim is in a different league entirely. It is a VASTLY superior program in every way. Superior graphics, smoother operation, user interface, flight physics etc. I only point this out because it might be of some value to any of your readers if they are Mac users, or are just interested in exploring other sim options. BTW, I used your ideas to build a model plane rack out of PVC. Way to go! Very smart. Dale.
thanks for the time and effort putting this together.. very informative. what might be fun is to mirror your computer to your large screen tv and do this on your tv rather than a 24" computer screen
I've done that!! it's fun
New follower in Québec Canadá... I loved your video thanks...
Great video got the trainer simulator. Waiting to get laptop lol 👍 again great video
Perfect timing on the video. Just yesterday I was thinking how I need this. The other day I was at my LHS and I was like...is this working? (pointing at the simulator) The kid was like...Ya. And set me up. Oh man did I crash A LOT!!!!! A LOT LOT LOT. It was set up with a hard plane. Then he set me up with a beginner plane and I was able to crash less. LOL Either way. I plan to get it eventually because I really want a plane but really don't want to kill it my first day. HAHAHA Thanks for this!!!
Yep this is the route to go!
If you have a local flying club you can also check with them. They might have a flying instructor. I am a flight instructor for my club. Most transmitters have the patch chord option. You can learn to fly real time and have the safety of another guy that can take control and save your plane. It's instant, no need to pass the contoller over, instructor just flips a switch on his transmitter. That being said, I just bought this software as to learn more 3D moves without the crashes.
You should try a sail plane or a pusher plane.
Nice explosion landing at the end here. You got it, but it didn't want to give it to you. 😄
I have 5.5 I love the jets they make great lawn darts. reset and off again.
Another great video.
I started out with RealFlight Drone with the Interlink controller. At that time they didn't have drones in RealFlight. Then they added drones in I think RealFlight 6.0. Then I upgraded a few times up to 7.5. Mostly I use it for practicing things like Orbiting objects, and for keeping my controller touch during the off months when I can't fly my drones outdoors. I have never used the built in Orbit mode or other autonomous modes in my DJI drones because I prefer to do them manually. Because I have so many hours in practicing in RealFlight I feel very confident with my skills and always disable object avoidance and stuff on my real drones.
---
I have no plan to upgrade to a Steam version. In my opinion Steam is bloated, slow, and basically a pain in the arse.
Very cool! Steam is just the program used to download the update. It doesn't actually run through steam. RealFlight runs independently
cool vid! big like! 👍👍👍
This is great stuff I may get this.
Hi there rc girl ,i am a seasoned flyer " or old" ,anyway i bought on of those 21 in one cheap things and it disabled my computer for a bit ,so i am very interested in the realflight ,i have several 400/450 helis ,my favourite is the blade 400 3d which i think is on the sim ,so i can practice without pain .I would probably go the middle one without trans as i have a dx6 and a tx16s ,just use the wires from the 21 in 1,anyway thank you for an informative and funny review keep up the good work ,i mean look how far you have progressed and improved your flying all the best to you
great video rc girl keep up the good work well done
Excellent simulator👍👍😀
This simulator has saved me millions in crashed planes!
haha same here
The models always look better in a RUclips window than they do in my desktop full screen. That is even with a higher end video card and processor.
When connecting a DX / NX transmitter does it use all the setups (rates, expo, throttle curves, etc) for the current model selected on the transmitter or does it act as a generic controller with any setups done within RF?
cool review. I'd love you to do a review of all the popular simulators out on the market. PicaSim, Wings Simulator etc
Really only one left HH has done a good job at eliminating competition.
I have 9.5 and I like it but I miss the stall characteristics and the ability to practice one engine out ability the old Phoenix program had. Yes you can do engine out in this but unless I'm missing a setting it is VERY forgiving and wont yank you over into a flat spin if you aren't careful. In fact when I was doing it on a couple of the different twins I couldn't even convince it to stall spin the plane.
All in all though still a decent program for stick time when its barely above 0 F outside or you need some practice on a new plane or want to learn something new without paying to fix things repeatedly.
Very good intoduction to the simulator. I am a complete novice in model aircraft and my son is too, so I went straight out and bought this.
Now I'm being humiliated by my son, as he immediately grasped how to control the aircrafts, while I was struggling very much. Turns out that playing a lot of games, gives you an edge! Hrrmmpf. I'm genuinely amazed at his skills. 😀
But how realistic is the simulator would you say? Is it much different from flying the models live?
11:35 "I've been a little timid in real life, oops". 😆😆😆😆 Love that part, great video by the way, looking forward to buying a simulator for practice. Thank you for the tutorial.
Just bought 9.5s trying it for the first time today but had difficulty getting the laptop to recognise the transmitter hope it's as good as they say never flown a rc plane yet
RC Girl your awesome!
Nice video, weeee
Can I change the trims and set up the way I fly? Can you change the expo, amounts of throw, and all other set ups of the plane?
What switch do you use to get out of safe,and what switch to change your rates? I just set mine up the other day.
Bonjour. Merci pour vos vidéos. Existe il une version démo de RealFlight ? Merci
thanks for the bid was fun to watch.i have the easy fly 4 from Ikarus.like 10 y old
Seriously nice software.
noone i saw in the comments pointed this out but when you were first landing the draco, you were basically landing it dead stick. I didn't see the prop spinning at all. it's around the 9:00 minute mark.
I love flippy things and twisty things. Subing now lol
Bravo l'atterrisssage c'était bien
We will have to get on at the same time 🇺🇸🇬🇧. Best thing you can do when you cannot fly outside 👍🏻 Will look out for RC Girl.
Hi there do you recommend the 9.5? I fly rc planes but have never had a sim are they like flying in real life? And is it worth it thanks
question.. is there a step required to make the controller active? i just got FS 9.5s with the interlink DX..
software loaded and launched.. plane ready to fly, but controller does not respond.. thanx
I followed your instructions on down loading 9.5 to9.5S . It down loaded but when you push play it sends a error message and will not open . Dose any body else have this problem ?
im guessing you can just plug in the IX models with usb as well?
Can you change the transmitter mode to either mode 1 or mode 2?
I'm sold, getting the flight sim once I have a plane. That being said do you have a recommendation of plane with camera for beginner - intermediate?
I wonder if you can use it with the DX series transmitters.I currently own and fly using my Spectrum DX8 DSMX transmitter
Thxs for the. Video
Where can I get that. USB fob you showed?
Can you please demonstrate a full control "mess up" then click on the safe select so we can see how the safe select feature works and recovers the air craft.
Ah yes, sorry I did not show that.
Thanks for sharing this video. I've just bought this sim but cannot see where or how to change settings in the tx that came with the sim to get dual rates or expo ? ? ? Any help would be much appreciated. Cheers ! Eddie.

having trouble binding the remote to pc, spektrum dxs
will it work to game
Does this need a network connection to install or authenticate the serial number and run? My school network likes to block a lot of these connections.
Even though you save that $99 quickly in some ways of calculating it, it still a bit steep if you also need to buy separate hardware to connect your old spektrum controller. Phoenix-RC still runs but is getting dated - is it possible to use that dongle (trainer-to-USB) to connect also with Realflight?
To my knowledge, the Phoenix dongle is proprietary and only works with Phoenix. RealFlight can work with any USB game controller if you set it up right, although it is better to use an R/C transmitter so it matches the controls on the real thing. Having flown both, I much prefer the physics and graphics of RealFlight.
so if I had a Mac OS running a virtual machine with windows OS, will it still work in this type of environment?
Do I need a powered usb port for my transmitter to use on eRF9.5S.
it would be interesting for you to fly with it in the electric version with a 1000mm scale of wingspan with an electronics with a not very powerful engine, I believe that the emax 2822 would give a very docile flight and would remove that fear, whenever I shoot down a plane I feel insecure
i have a samsung samsung BOOK-UBBEVTT1V7 laptop..do you think i use it with this sim?
Will one of the mini PCs you can buy on Amazon run that game? Cause I would like to use a mini pc hooked up to my 50" tv to play this.
What is a good PC for this flight sim? Cause I’m looking for a good one to start to fly this as I’m in a program to learn about flying RC airplanes
they have saved me $$$
will it work with flysky transmitter
I got an apprentice s with the stock reciever, can I buy realflight on Steam and connect the reciever?
Will an older realflite 5.5 futaba/ realflite controller work with 9.5 software evolution?
Can i use my HDTV instead of a computer monitor?
Why are there no decent flight sims for OS X?
very cool, will the RF9.5 simulator work with Meta VR ?
I bought the G44 Widgeon model and it is not in the simulator (RC 9.5S), how can I download this model to the simulator, and how to install it in this simulator? How to find it in the NX6 transmitter ?? Thanks for Your help.
I have real flight g2, I cant make it work on windows 10. How do I fix it.
Once this is downloaded can I play it without being on the internet
Where do I find draco on my new 9.5s . I can't find it ?????
The channels on the Interlink DX controller are marked by letters but some plane models use numbers to signify the channel to control a certain feature. How do I find out which channel number correlates with the letter? So far, I know that A=Ch.7, B=Ch.8, C=Ch.5 and D=Ch.6. What is F, G, and H? Also, what does the "I" button and sliders do? Thanks.
Hi. Can i add 9.5s on to realflight Evolution. I just wanted to buy add on 9.5s. I wanted to fly A10 warthog
Hello . I was trying to d/l real flight 9.5 s on steam but all I can find is trainer and real flight evolution I am following your directions I think thank you for you video very interesting
Real flight evolution is the latest edition. Go with that one.
Can you please make a video can you do the rates and expo on the simulator nobody did yet thank you
Does the 9.5 not come with a disc or is it just through steam??
Nice job! I'd love to get this, but all of my devices are Mac. I thought by now they would have made this available to Mac users. 😒
But windows on mac my mate had it
Yea look unto Mac “boot camp”
There is a one to two second delay in moving the sticks on the controller and seeing them move on the radio gadget. I have a new Lenovo Ideapad 5 with the latest BIOS. What can I do?
Lenovo IdeaPad 5 - Iris Xe Graphics G7 "The integrated GPUs are only capable of handling light tasks like web browsing and video playback. The NVIDIA GeForce MX450 performs a little better than the Core i7's Intel Iris Xe Graphics thanks to its dedicated VRAM; however, it's still an entry-level dedicated GPU, so don't expect to perform extremely demanding tasks like video editing or AAA gaming."
Will dsx work from blade 230s work
Hello!!! It is possible to use Radiomaster TX16?
All my aircraft have elevator reversed. Anyone know how to fix this?
Should i buy 9.5s or wait for 10 ?
Can ya do this on a flat screen tv...like 65inch"
