Discover the following play modes:

1. ACADEMY MODE

Learn or enhance your skills in flying the most commonly used types of combat FPV drones.

This mode includes dozens of diverse missions in real-life combat zones.

Learn how to:

• Plan and execute combat missions: select platform and loadout, set targets (vehicles, infantry, shelters), analyze their number, locations, weather, time of day, terrain, electronic warfare, etc.

• Complete a pre-flight protocol following a real combat routine: verify components, ground station status, battery, communication type, and payload configuration.

• Learn to think like a commander: anticipate route issues, controller conflicts, resource allocation, and actions under EW interference to complete missions successfully.

• Here, you can also test the Race Mode to sharpen agility and precision.

Our courses:

• Basic pilot course

• Kamikaze

• Bomber 

• Air interceptor

2. BATTLEGROUND MODE

Defend your bunker against endless enemy waves: infantry, vehicles, tanks, and bikers. Each wave grows tougher, while your drones have limited ammo and recovery. Survive, earn points, and choose: fight to the end or evacuate to save your progress.

Available drones:

• Recon drone 

• Two kamikaze drones with different loadouts

• Two bombers (12” and 15”) with various payloads

This mode helps you maintain top piloting skills after completing all training courses. Top the leaderboard, be the ace!
