TLDR: if your machine struggled before, it wont now!
Let us start by saying that this update is larger than anything we've ever done before. It is packed to the brim with new content and features, as well as a ton of optimizations. And the best thing is, this update is completely free of charge!
Large parts of the simulator have been rewritten to boost performance through the roof and to reduce input latency to the absolute minimum, so much that AccuRC 2.0.6 will run 60FPS in 1080p on Intel HD4000 graphics with no issues and no noticeable lag whatsoever. We managed to almost double the physics FPS compared to 2.0.5, which means that 2.0.6 will easily run on an dual core 3GHz processor.
AccuRC 2.0.6 was a huge project and redefined the simulator that AccuRC is. With this leaner, meaner and faster platform, we're expecting to be able to do amazing things in the future. As a little preview, 2.0.7 will focus a lot on adding new helicopters, quadcopters, training modes, StickMover integration and much more to look forward to.
Last but not least, we'd like to thank our amazing community for their feedback, testing, contributions, suggestions, and support. We couldn't have done it without you.
Here's what changed since 2.0.5:
Greatly improved overall performance:
-PFPS increased by up to 100%
-Decoupled graphics from physics FPS
-Loading times significantly shortened
-Graphics performance increased
-Framerate smoothed significantly, now runs stutter free without VSync
-Reduced controller latency to absolute minimum (sim viably flyable at 30fps now)
New Models:
-SAB Goblin 700 KSE
-MSH Protos Nitro
VR support:
-AccuRC now supports all popular VR headsets through SteamVR
-Select Play VR from the Steam start options when hitting "Play
Training modes:
-Added hover training for different orientations
Sound:
-New engine sounds for several models, especially Goblin 700 KSE and LOGO 700
-Proper triblade sounds for 3 bladed rotors
-More depth and load dependency to tail rotor sounds
-Better low rpm main rotor sounds
-New crash sound for helicopters, sampled from a real KSE (dont ask)
-New & Improved Car sounds
Miscellaneous optimizations:
-Added a No Disc Blur Mode which leaves the rotors unblurred
-Added Fly/Workbench buttons to model select menu
-Multiplayer now works better than ever before
-Renamed FBL presets to the flying styles they suit
-Canopy Hue change Feature added
-All default setups reworked and improved (applies to NEW heli from the hangar ONLY)
-Recalculated drag values for all helis (they fly faster now)
-Sharpened control response of all default setups
New components:
-RotorTech 700mm Ultimate Blades

Realism is our #1 priority
AccuRC is designed to simulate the entire model from the servos to the blades and control surfaces, with control geometries and components accurately affecting the way things feel– it's not just simply a picture of a model. Your models can be set up to individual tastes and requirements, simply by swapping electrical and mechanical components and adjusting settings as you would do with your own model. That all is done via our unique workbench area, where you can get so close to the model that you can almost smell it.
You can setup modes for training with enhanced stability options to get you started if you so require, but also for intermediate and advanced pilots who just want to have a good time making the air burn! Using our very own AH720 flybarless unit and our unique virtual transmitter, you can customize your model setups for each aircraft down to every nuance and learn how to use advanced RC equipment.
AccuRC's broad selection of features
Choose from countless helicopters, fixed wing and scale aircraft, drones, quads and buggies. Flying in 3D sceneries, you can also choose from a range of camera views to customize your flying experience even further– including first person view.
AccuRC comes with super-detailed sceneries based on actual RC flying sites along with our new 3D rendered super-scape sceneries which include stadiums, cities and remote islands– ideal for any flying style from helicopter 3D, aerobatics to drone racing and first person view flying.
AccuRC's super accurate aerodynamics- and physics engine ensures the most realistic and rewarding flight experience– recognized and used by many of the world's leading RC pilots.
