FS global RUNS SLOW WITH HELICOPTERS IN iPAD

  • Using the Beech Baron yoke clock and a real world external stop watch the aeroplane iPadOS mobile sim is found to run at true time.

    Using the R-22 instrument panel clock and the same external stop watch the iPadOS R-22 minute in Aerofly FS global scenery edition took two minutes and forty seconds exactly in two different measurements.

    The iPadOS Aerofly FS global scenery helicopter time runs at 60/160 or 0.375 times real time. An interval of time in the helicopter sim takes 160/60 or 2.666 repeating X that time in the real world.

    iPad pro M1 12.9" 8 GB.

    This time difference on my ipad9 is only ~60/80 sec or 0.75 times real time.

  • iPadOS update installed Mon 21 April. iPadOS 18.4.1 (22E252)

    R-22 still flies in slow motion and is unusable. One minute on the R-22 instrument panel clock takes exactly two minutes and forty seconds on an external stopwatch.
    This is unchanged from the performance before the OS update, the R-22 on a iPad pro M1 12.9" 8GB runs at 0.375 times the true rate.


    I previously tried the UH60-M and it also ran at a slow rate. All the fixed wing models that I tried ran at the normal time rate.

  • Being a bit slow myself I just noticed the mathematical relationship, 60/160 and 60/80. My iPad runs at 0.375 speed and yours at 0.75 speed. For our friends who are uncomfortable with tens, that is 3/8 and 3/4. The iPad pro M1 is twice as unusable as the iPad9 with the FS Global R-22.

    See why it is worthwhile keeping old Aerofly versions on your device!

  • My Android FS2022 R-22 has semi-stuck touch collective and pedals! I have to release the touch before sliding.

    I just re-installed FS2023 and realised that I hadn’t got the R-22, iPad or Android🤬, however FS2021’s R-22 is good. Android’s FS Global R-22 is of course unaffected.

    (Buying the FS2023 plane bundle #2 on top of bundle #1 and most of the scenery add-ons was just too much! Only good for one year too in that new sim every year era. It was a shame to me as I really liked FS2023, it was smooth and stable.

    I had PC, iPad and Android Aeroflys to support😢)
