Liftoff for Windows

Liftoff®: FPV Drone Racing offers a flight simulator that centers entirely on first-person view (FPV) drone racing and freestyle mechanics. The game delivers fully simulated physics, emphasizing precise control and aerodynamic realism. It includes single-player and multiplayer modes, allowing you to test your piloting under various conditions in structured races or open environments.

In Liftoff®: FPV Drone Racing, you can modify drones and even design tracks. The integration with physical radio transmitters is also supported, emphasizing simulation accuracy. It focuses on FPV racing mechanics, offering options tailored to technical control, modular drone builds, and highly specialized flight modeling throughout all gameplay modes.

Physics-based drone simulation

Each drone handles differently based on weight distribution, motor specs, and environmental factors. Liftoff®: FPV Drone Racing calculates thrust, drag, and inertia to approximate real-world performance. There’s a deliberate absence of arcade-style handling, so movement is dictated entirely by simulated aerodynamics. This makes precision control the defining interaction across all modes. However, there is no simplified control option for casual play.

You can create a customized drone using a wide variety of components, configurations, and frame styles. The system lets you swap motors, batteries, and propellers, adjusting drone stats and behavior accordingly. Each choice reflects actual performance differences, impacting speed, balance, and stability. This mechanic is paired with a workshop-style system where custom drones can be saved, reused, or shared. It allows experimentation, but always with behavior grounded in mechanical changes.

Track creation is also available, offering map editors and community integration. Players can place race gates, barriers, and environmental objects to construct tracks, then share them directly through the in-game browser. These tools rely on a grid-based placement system for precision and include options for terrain, lighting, and object density. Shared tracks are downloadable, adding variety across single and multiplayer sessions.

Sim racing, not simplified

Liftoff®: FPV Drone Racing delivers a simulator with consistent mechanics across drone types and environments. It offers detailed drone building, realistic flight physics, and user-generated content without shifting toward arcade-style racing. The focus is on accurate handling and structural customization rather than gamified progression, narrative, or an attempt to ease players into the simulation. Multiplayer support and community integration give it long-term scope, but everything remains grounded in FPV realism.
