I've heard there are simulators I should try that are better than the free DJI one. I'm on a Mac, and what I want to do is use the DJI Remote Controller 2 that came with my DJI FPV Combo to operate the simulator.

Any suggestions? It would be super helpful to hear why I should prefer a third-party solution to the free DJI sim.

Thanks in advance for any guidance!

Velocidrone works on the Mac, its supposed to be one of the better ones.

Thank you for the recommendation!
I went and looked at it. It seems to be heavily focused on racing, with no free flight mode. Also, I can't find anything on their site specifically saying the Remote Controller 2 is supported.


I didn't really say what I was looking for. I'm not at the skill level where I'm looking for racing challenges. I really want to just fly around, try stunts on my own, and generally try to increase my skill level.

Velocidrone might be great in a few months or longer, when I won't come in dead last every race.

I prefer DRL

I've been using liftoff on my mac. It supports the controller with the usb dongle (usb-c -> usb -> usb-c), and it has a freestyle mode.
