Yes — start completely free, no credit card. Just register with your email and we'll send you a link straight to the simulator. Practice all you want and crash our models, not your expensive real one. The Free plan uses the same full-realism physics and gives you free models with a daily flight allowance, so you can really try it before you decide.

For less than the price of a coffee, you get a full month of flying across 450 models — the best value in RC simulation. And yes, you can cancel anytime: open My Account → Manage Subscription and click Cancel Subscription. You keep full access until the end of your billing period.
Your email is your login — so you never have to create or remember a password. When you enter your email, we send you a magic link — a one-time login button in your inbox. Click it and you're in, no password required.
The link expires after a short time and works only once, which makes it more secure than a password in most cases. Once logged in, your browser remembers you — no need to log in again next time you visit.
For Windows, you can purchase a personal license for the original ClearView RC Flight Simulator at rcflightsim.com. Either way works: subscribe here and fly 450 models in your browser for less than the price of a coffee a month, or pay once and own a license. The online simulator needs no installation, runs on any computer or operating system, and works across as many phones and computers as you like.
Yes. Absolute RC runs in any modern browser — Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge. No download or plugin required. It works on Windows, Mac, ChromeOS, Linux, iOS, and Android.
Yes — a real RC-style transmitter is exactly what you want for realistic flight. You can also fly with touch, keyboard, or any gamepad / Xbox controller, but regular gamepads self-center the throttle, which is wrong for planes. A dedicated USB simulator transmitter (around $30–40 on Amazon) gives you a ratcheted throttle and proper stick feel and works on Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android.
That said, we designed the simulator to be genuinely enjoyable and easy to control on phones with touch — so you can fly on the go!
