RC Plane 3

We worked on RC Plane 3 and the technology behind it for over three years. Learn to fly a large selection of RC planes in huge, beautiful scenarios full of detail. Grab an easy flier to enjoy a majestic sunset over the hills of Tuscany, or hop in a fast stunt plane to fly through barns and high-voltage pylons. Practise landings, stunts, wind handling and cow scaring, or compete on global leaderboards across many challenging game modes.

Simulation or Arcade

Switch between Simulation and Arcade from the main menu: every game mode and plane works in both, and each has its own scoreboards to keep the challenge fair. In Simulation you choose how much the plane's electronic stabiliser helps you, and Pro mode is completely unassisted. During a flight, you can cycle control-rate presets with one button: high rates for stunts, low rates for takeoff and landing.

Air Combat

Air Combat was new to the RC Plane series: a team deathmatch where two teams start from different airstrips with a limited number of tickets. Planes carry a paintball cannon, and you can pick up firework-based homing missiles. Your team's airstrip has battery, ammo and repair pickups, and anti-RC-aircraft cannons guard every airstrip, giving you a semi-safe patch of sky to retreat to.

One account, every platform

RC Plane 3 launched on iOS, then came to Mac, Android and Steam. Your FrozenPepper account carries your progress, preferences and purchases across all of them. The Mac and Steam versions support a wide range of joysticks, with deep input customisation, and the Steam version adds higher-resolution textures, image effects and anti-aliasing. On Android, a video settings panel lets you tune performance to your device.

On iOS, RC Plane 3 needs an iPhone 5, iPod touch (6th generation), iPad 4, iPad mini 2 or a newer device.
