Physics V2 and ENSMA
EreaDrone has now an entirely new physics system thanks to the ENSMA (National School of Mechanics and Aerotechnics).
The drone has now a better drag, better acceleration, better fall, etc...
It has been made to be the closest possible to the reality. The simulator is now great for freestyle too. Just try it and you'll see ;)
FAI World Drone Racing Championships 2018 Shenzhen map
For the FAI WDRC 2018 Shenzhen, EreaDrone has been chosen by the FAI to be the official simulator of the biggest FPV event.
During this race, 128 competitors from more than 40 countries participated.
Quotes:
I think EreaDrone is one of the most realistic I've tried and was great for remembering the course!
J’ai pu mieux me repérer et avoir de bonne trajectoire grâce à ce simulateur.
I was able to find my way and have a good path with this simulator
This was the first time I used this simulator. Could pick it up and start flying in the really quick and was easily able to learn the FAI Shenzhen track with it!
For me, EreaDrone is one of the best sim because the tracks are really the same that in the real. The Top of realistic simulators
Factory map
The Factory map is the all-new freestyle map! This map contains many little gaps and, the most interesting part: a Train!
This map is 500m by 500m.
New logo and UI
The design the simulator has entirely changed to a more modern version of it. The UI and the logo has been entirely remade.

All the minor bugs of animations, buttons, etc, are fixed.
The menu is the first step toward a big future feature of the simulator.
NEW UI (INTERFACE)
The UI has been entirely remastered to get a better and homogenous design and also to remove all the known bugs.
NEW PHYSICS BEHAVIORS
We flew a lot to compare the simulator and the reality.
The physics behaviors have changed a lot to get a better fall due to the gravity and get a better inertia.
MOTION BLUR AND MINIMALIST MODE OPTIONS
You can now enable and disable the motion blur to get a better performance or even enable the minimalist mode which removes all the trees and grasses of a map which has a track to get the best performance (multiply the FPS by 2-3).
TRACKS ON THE FIELD OR IN THE STADIUM
Are you bored of the empty field with only the track and few trees around ? Do you want it in the stadium ?
Now, you can choose for each track where you want it between the field and the stadium.
BETTER GRAPHISM
The graphics are now more realism than before.
The textures are more beautiful. The motion blur is better.
And all this is optimized !
KNOWED BUGS FIXED
We forced everything to list every bug. And now, they are now fixed !
Arriving in an all new world
