This is the repository for the Flow State FPV drone racing simulator
This simulator is a true FPV Drone Racing simulator. The goal is to make it look and feel as similar to a standard racing drone as possible. As such, the goal is not to make the most HD/GoPro-esque visuals. Instead the focus is on simulating what pilots see through the goggles, static and all! Here are some of the founding principles of this sim for contributors' consideration.
- Flight feel is #1 priority
- This means lowest (realistic) possible input latency
- Option for typical FPV aspect ratio, and resolutions
- Use as a practice tool
- Lap times should be similar for most pilots/setups/tracks
- Editable maps with commonly used track elements
- Visual disturbances similar to those found at an FPV racing event
- realistic video static/interference
- Competitive
- The sim does not provide significant advantages to those with high end gaming rigs
- The "sim quads" could be flown "against" real quads, and yield a fair competition
- Field friendly
- Should be usable with or without internet connection
- Should function well on adequately powerful laptops
