Camera Drone Pro is not included — that is a separate $4.99 add-on below.

Nine more venues, all included

Eleven venues in the release package: the free mainstage and the free line-of-sight trainer, plus the nine below. Every one of them comes with the $9.99 unlock — along with every venue we release from here on.

Odysea — a festival on a cruise ship anchored in a tropical bay, water slides running down the ship's side and a breaking-wave stage at the stern New

Odysea

A festival at sea, on a 210-metre ship anchored between two palm islands. Four open decks around an atrium that drops the full height of the hull, three open-top water slides that swing right out over the side so you can fly and dive through them, and a stage at the stern built as a breaking wave — the inside of the curl is the screen. A helicopter flies a circuit of the bay, and a lighthouse works the headland after dark.

The Cove — a night lagoon ringed by sea cliffs, lasers fanning across a crowd on the sand and rafts out on the water Included

The Cove

A water festival inside a circular sea cove. The stage is a 360° island in the middle of the lagoon under a giant disco ball — a mirror by day, and the light source for the whole cove at night. The crowd dances on the sand and floats out on rafts, a moored fleet packs the outer water, and there are sea cliffs to dive off.

Frostwing Summit — a snow bowl at a ski resort with a giant penguin stage, its wings forming the LED walls, and hot air balloons over the slopes Included

Frostwing Summit

A winter festival in a snow bowl at a ski resort. The stage is a giant penguin whose wings span the full width of the bowl and double as the LED walls — it breathes, turns its head, blinks and opens its bill on the drops. Chairlifts carry skiers over the crowd, and columns of coloured powder fire off the deck on every drop.

Festival Grounds — ferris wheels, a coaster and a drone show spelling out over three stages Included

Festival Grounds

A whole festival site rather than a single stage: three stages spread across the grounds, ferris wheels, a coaster, perimeter fireworks and a drone show overhead. The biggest crowd in the game.

Sandstone Amphitheatre — bench rows climbing between two towering sandstone monoliths Included

Sandstone Amphitheatre

Seventy bench rows climbing a hundred feet between two 300-foot sandstone monoliths, with silhouette floodlights sweeping the rock faces and the plains glowing far beyond the stage.

Dragon’s Den — a jade dragon coiling the ceiling of an indoor club above the decks Included

Dragon’s Den — Indoor Club

The indoor room. A jade dragon coils the full 159 m length of the ceiling and opens its mouth over the decks — that’s the DJ booth, and you can fly straight into it. Everything is close, hard and enclosed.

The Orb — the inside of a giant sphere with a wraparound video dome and a sunken stage Included

The Orb

Flying inside a giant sphere. The entire inner surface of the dome is one continuous video screen, so the sky above you is the show. The stage is sunken at the bottom and the crowd bowl climbs the curve all the way around you.

Temple of the Sun — a jungle pyramid at golden hour with hot air balloons drifting overhead Included

Temple of the Sun

Golden hour at a jungle pyramid in the tropics. A fleet of hot air balloons drifts across the sunset overhead, fire burns on the tower tops, and a stone guardian breathes flame from the summit.

Lost Lands — a colossal dinosaur skull stage in deep forest Included

Lost Lands

A dinosaur bass festival in deep forest. The stage is a colossal T-Rex skull — you can fly in through the mouth and out through an eye — with a brontosaurus wandering the treeline and a second stage out in a crater.

Optional add-on

Camera Drone Pro — $4.99

Not everything at a festival is shot on a cinewhoop. Camera Drone Pro swaps the acro quad for a GPS-stabilised camera drone — position hold, altitude hold, and the heavy cinematic brake-and-settle when you let go of the sticks — so you can practise the moves that actually get hired, on the same stages.

  • Full gimbal operation. Three axes, camera pitch on its own axis, and yaw that trails the turn instead of snapping to it. On a real remote it maps to the gimbal wheel.
  • A 24 / 70 / 170 mm lens stack. Wide for the reveal, medium for the orbit, telephoto for the compressed long shot from the back of the field.
  • Cine, Normal and Sport. The three profiles you already fly, each with its own tilt ceiling and speed limits.
  • Tune all of it. Speeds, angular velocity, tilt angle, yaw smoothness, sensitivity, brake and attitude sensitivity, plus advanced gimbal pitch and yaw speed, smoothing and wheel expo.
  • Fly it with your own remote. A DJI RC-N2 or RC-N3 connects straight from Chrome or Edge — here is how that works.
  • It stands alone. Not part of the $9.99 game, and it flies on the free mainstage without it. Want both? $14.99.

The airframe · DroneCo Productions

The drone you fly here is a real frame.

Festival FPV is modelled on the SnapRing 2.5″ Cinewhoop by DroneCo Productions — Chris Teal, who also wrote this game’s original soundtrack as TAURU5. The mass, the momentum, the way it carries speed into a corner: all of it starts from this airframe.

It is a 2.5-inch cinewhoop built for festival shoots and cinematic FPV work. Full-ring prop protection so it survives a room full of people and truss, replaceable top and bottom plates so a bad landing costs a part instead of a frame, and light enough that it still feels quick with a camera on the front.

Complete frame — 29.8 g Bottom rings — 9.6 g Motor plate — 11.6 g Full-ring prop guards

Frame kit only — electronics, motors, propellers, camera and batteries are sold separately. Pricing and availability live on DroneCo’s shop.

The people who actually fly these shows

Festival FPV is a simulation of a job real people do for a living. This is where we introduce them — the pilots, the frames they build, and the roads they took to get there.

Questions

FAQ

Is the web simulator really free?

Yes. The open-field mainstage and the line-of-sight trainer are free with no account required. If you want the rest — nine more venues, and every venue we release in future — that’s a one-time $9.99 unlock.

I paid for an unlock and it's gone after clearing my browser.

Head to the support page and enter the email you used at checkout — we’ll restore it. Unlocks are tied to your purchase, not your cookies. If you bought a single venue under the old per-venue pricing you keep it, and you have been upgraded to the full game at no extra cost.

Does it work on my phone?

The simulator is designed for desktop with a controller or keyboard. On mobile you can browse and join the waitlist, but flying needs a desktop browser.

Are more venues coming?

Yes — new venues are added all the time (three shipped in the last week), and every one of them is included free if you own the $9.99 game. Join the list above and you’ll hear first.

What is Camera Drone Pro?

A GPS-stabilised camera-drone flight mode with a 24 / 70 / 170 mm lens stack, for the smooth push-ins and orbits an acro cinewhoop can’t do. It is a $4.99 add-on, bought separately from the game in both directions — it works on the free mainstage on its own, and it is not included in the $9.99 unlock. Both together are $14.99.

The studio · Big Sky FPV

Built by the crew that flies the real shows.

Festival FPV is made by Big Sky FPV, an aerial production company flying concerts, festivals and live broadcasts nationwide. Chief pilot Jason El Moussa flies the events this game is built from — over crowds, during drops, on live LED feeds — and every flight model in the simulator has been tested by Jason and other working festival pilots in the industry. If it didn't feel right on the sticks, it didn't ship.
