Aerial Camera Simulator

Unlike other flight sims, mastering a cable camera requires a different skill set. Precisely position the camera dolly within a fixed 3D space — a control entirely independent of the camera's aim. Test your spatial awareness in this unique simulation, playable solo or in local co-op.

About the Game

Unlike other flight sims, mastering a cable camera requires a different skill set. Precisely position the camera dolly within a fixed 3D space — a control entirely independent of the camera's aim. Test your spatial awareness in this unique simulation, playable solo or in local co-op.

--- Key Features ---

AUTHENTIC PHYSICS

Master flying the Aerial Camera System commonly used during huge sports events like soccer. Navigate the realistic stadium with responsive, physics-based controls.

FLY SOLO OR TEAM UP

• SOLO MODE: As the Pilot, concentrate on your flight path while the camera automatically tracks key points of interest.

• LOCAL CO-OP MODE: Replicate a real broadcast crew! One player pilots the dolly while the second operates the camera head, working together to capture the perfect shot.

A WIDE RANGE OF CHALLENGES

Test every aspect of your skill across a variety of scenarios. All modes support solo and co-op play, with global leaderboards for competitive challenges!

Free Flight: Unrestricted exploration to learn the controls and scout the environment.

Soccer Opening Ceremony: Master complex cinematic camera work for a scripted live event.

Shape Flying (Precision): Maintain a perfect distance and side profile on a moving target as it travels along complex paths like circles and figure-eights.

Pop Up Targets (Reaction): Hunt down and collect randomly appearing orbs against the clock in a fast-paced test of your reaction time.

Thread the Needle (Spatial Awareness): Navigate narrow tunnels and gates, demanding absolute control and precision.

Race Track (Handling): Push your speed to the limit and find the perfect racing line on challenging aerial courses.

Lens Survivors: Clear the field. Don't collide. Survive.

PROFESSIONAL HUD: An optional Head-Up Display provides critical flight data like speed, position, and camera direction to help you fly with absolute precision.

DEEP CUSTOMIZATION: Fine-tune your rig to match your style. Adjust speed, acceleration, sensitivity, response curves, and deadzones for both the dolly and camera head. Save up to four distinct presets and switch between them on the fly.

OPTIMIZED PERFORMANCE: Includes an optional low-performance mode for smooth gameplay on a wide range of hardware and to save battery on mobile devices.

Note:

*Use of a gamepad controller is highly recommended (optionally with 3D printable drone flight sticks).

*At least one gamepad is needed for CO-OP.
