Description
PicaSim is a free flight simulator for radio controlled aircraft. You can use it to learn how to fly, to practise aerobatics, or just to have fun flying around on a rainy day.This is the full/"donation" version - so if you've tried the free version and you enjoy it enough that you would like to support its past or future development (or just say thanks!), buy this to make a donation.
If it helps, this includes some extras that aren't in the free version:
A variety of races - currently F3F-style and cross-country (the free version has just one race).
Gliders: Tigger (2.9m F3F slope racer), ASW15, "The Plank", magpie, and an electric version of the Neoslope.
Terrains: Panoramic version of the "Mountains Dynamic Soaring" scene, plus a "Snowy Hills" scene (3D and panoramic).
Over time it will acquire as many extra planes/terrains that I can fit into about 20MB!), as a thank you for donating, if you like! But the functionality will remain free (you can always create your own planes/terrains just like I've done).
My aim is to recover some costs of making this app - in particular licenses for Marmalade and Terragen. That will then let me release it for other platforms (including Windows, where it will be easy to support joypads/transmitter interfaces), amongst other things.
There's now a forum for posting bugs, suggestions and general discussion at http://picasim.freeforums.org
Thanks
Permissions: PicaSim needs internet access for the online leaderboards. It saves settings to the SD card, mainly because it supports using user-generated content. It needs the "Phone calls" permission for Marmalade - I think this is to handle interruption by incoming calls properly. PicaSim does not access any personal data on the device, and the only connection it makes is to the Scoreloop servers.
