The big winter sale has started. For FPV pilots, the haul is mixed: the big simulators (Liftoff, Uncrashed, TRYP) are discounted, but at 15% to 25% off, they are more expensive than in previous sales.
Prices listed are based on the Euro store (DE). Regional pricing and currencies may vary depending on your location!
Uncrashed : FPV Drone Simulator
- The Deal: 11.04€ (down from 12.99€) | -15%
- Release Date: 2021/09/01
- Last Update: 2025/11/08
- Genre: Racing Sim / Arcade
- Steam DB: 91% (5898)
- Last 30d Player Average: 622
- Note: I have the game. On the day of the post, 33 hours of playtime.
Who is Uncrashed for? It’s perfect for pilots who prioritize nice visuals and love ripping freestyle and racing through massive environments (like abandoned buildings or mountains). The included track editor and Steam Workshop support ensure you won’t run out of content anytime soon.
Who should skip it? If you are looking to train specifically for Tiny Whoops or need ultra-hardcore 1:1 racing physics, look elsewhere.
Liftoff®: FPV Drone Racing
- The Deal: 15.99€ (down from 19.99€) | -20%
- Release Date: 2018/09/13
- Last Update: 2025/11/05
- Genre: Racing Sim / Arcade
- Steam DB: 92% (12293)
- Last 30d Player Average: 479
- Note: I have the game. On the day of the post, 9 hours of playtime.
Who is Liftoff for? Liftoff is widely considered the “Gold Standard” and offers the strongest foundation on the market right now (Multiplayer, Workshop, Physics). But note: To get the truly “complete” package, you are dependent on the paid DLCs. If you want to fly Tiny Whoops, Night Mode, or Drift Cars, you have to invest beyond the base game.
The Catch (Racing): While freestyle is excellent, the racing mode can be frustrating: Track layouts are sometimes hard to read. You might find yourself searching for the next gate because the visual guidance isn’t always intuitive.
FPV SkyDive : FPV Drone Simulator
- The Deal: Free
- Release Date: 2021/05/31
- Last Update: 2025/12/23
- Genre: Racing Sim / Arcade
- Steam DB: 80% (2491)
- Last 30d Player Average: 116
- Note: I have the game. On the day of the post, 21 hours of playtime.
Who is FPV.SkyDive for? The perfect entry point for tight budgets because the base game is completely free. The standout feature is the excellent Flight School, which teaches stick basics broadly better than many simulators. The developers also keep things fresh with frequent seasonal events (e.g., Halloween) or fun additions like Drone Soccer.
The Catch: “Free” comes with limits. The selection of drones and maps in the base version is very sparse – to get real variety, you are forced to buy DLCs.
