Trippy Plains

LEARN TO FLY FPV, THEN FLY ANYWHERE

Trippy Plains is an FPV drone simulator for complete beginners and experienced pilots alike. Learn step by step on the BEGINNER field, from your first hover to your first flip, then fly freely across 15 worlds. It runs smoothly on everyday laptops, including integrated graphics and Macs, with a keyboard, a game controller or your real RC radio.

50 STEP-BY-STEP LESSONS

BEGINNER field — a quiet flying field with pads, big gates and a pit area. Pick BEGINNER on the start screen and the lessons start by themselves.

25 ANGLE lessons — from starting the motors and your first hover to a full course and a landing on the pad. Height help and auto-brake come off one at a time as you improve.

25 ACRO lessons — the mode real FPV pilots fly. Level it by hand, banked turns, then your first roll, your first flip, a dive, a split-S and the ACRO course.

Always clear — a guide ribbon to the next gate, a height gauge and the exact keys or sticks for your device. If a lesson is too hard, it gets easier by itself.

15 WORLDS TO EXPLORE

The Yard — the map the game opens into: a working freight yard with forklifts, container stacks, warehouses to fly through, AI drones to chase and a mirror hangar where you watch yourself fly.

BEGINNER — the quiet flying field where the lessons happen.

Star — a rocket launch site on the Gulf coast: stainless steel rockets you can launch yourself, a tower that catches the returning booster, a tank farm and a real sea to the horizon. At night, the Milky Way.

Central London — Westminster: dive inside Big Ben's tower, fly round the Houses of Parliament, thread the Thames arches and carve through St James's Park.

Canyon Run — a desert gorge with cave houses linked by tunnels, a lava flow, highlines and a fire-breathing dragon.

Mars (beta) — cargo runs from landed ships to a base that grows as you deliver.

Bando Resort — an abandoned beach resort: crumbling pools, broken rooftops, stairwells through every floor, and The Arcade, three levels of derelict shopping centre.

Ruhrwerk Factory — turbines, conveyors, a blast furnace and HALLE 7, a 256 m factory shed with room mazes, racking runs and drop shafts.

Fractal — a psychedelic dreamscape: dive a Menger-sponge mind, thread golden-spiral gates and portal rings, and fly with a herd of unicorns.

Trippy Plains — where it all began: neon portals, rolling hills and wide open skies.

Speedway — a tight race circuit with beacon gates, live lap timing and AI rivals.

Twister — a technical race track with banked corners and elevation changes.

Atompark — a nuclear plant with dive-through cooling towers and hollow reactor buildings.

Field — wide open countryside for high-speed runs.

Sandbox — place your own obstacles and design your own course.

PLAY YOUR WAY

Freestyle — dives, gaps and roof drops everywhere.

Race the AI — on Speedway and Twister: three rivals tuned to your own drone.

Target lock — lock on to AI drones and other pilots for points and combos.

Clip recorder — press C to record your best 60 seconds and save it as an MP4.

Golden ducks — hidden on every map.

10 AIRCRAFT

Each craft has its own weight, motor response and handling profile:

APEX 5 — 5" freestyle quad. Snappy, punchy, the all-rounder.

GHOST 5 — 5" freestyle with a softer tune. Floaty and forgiving.

VENOM R — 5" pure racer. Fast, stiff, unforgiving.

SILK 3 — 3.5" cinewhoop. Smooth and cinematic.

STING 2.5 — 2.5" sub-250 g micro. Twitchy and quick.

HORIZON 7 — 7" long-range cruiser. Effortless power.

ROTOR CP — collective-pitch helicopter. A completely different challenge.

FLEX 3.5 — 3.5" freestyle. Nimble and punchy.

PICO 65 — 65 mm 1S whoop. Tiny but fierce.

TITAN X8 — 8" cinelifter X8. Heavy, stable, cinematic lift.

FLIGHT MODES

Angle mode — self-levelling. Pick it up in minutes.

Acro mode — full manual, no self-levelling. The real FPV experience.

Switch between them at any time with a single key. Each mode has its own 25 lessons on the BEGINNER field.

FLY TOGETHER

Online multiplayer through Steam. Open Fly together on the start screen, join a room of up to 8 pilots and see each other's drones live on the same map. Keep the default room to meet other pilots, type your own room name for a private session with friends, or invite them straight from your Steam friends list.

Fly together works on The Yard, Bando Resort, Ruhrwerk Factory and Central London. It's shared free flight: drones pass through each other, so you can chase and follow your friends without crashing into them.

Battery simulation with real voltage sag

Ground effect near the ground, over rooftops and above container stacks

Portal teleportation between worlds, with no loading screens

WHO IS THIS FOR?

Complete beginners — start on the BEGINNER field: the ANGLE lessons get you hovering, flying through gates and landing on the pad, one small step at a time.

Experienced FPV pilots — switch to acro, tune your rates, and use it as a muscle-memory trainer for the real thing. The ACRO lessons take newer pilots to their first flip.

Sim enthusiasts — 15 worlds, 10 craft, full physics. Enough variety to keep you flying for hours.
