The End of an Era: DJI Flight Simulator Discontinuation
On March 21, 2024, DJI brought an end to its Flight Simulator, a tool that had become indispensable for many Air2S pilots. The DJI Flight Simulator was a training software designed for DJI drone operation, supporting both keyboard and DJI remote controller inputs, but limited to the Win10 64-bit operating system.
March 21, 2024: Official Shutdown Date
The shutdown date marked a significant turning point for the drone simulation community. DJI’s Flight Simulator had been a crucial platform for Air2S pilots to practice complex maneuvers and maintain their flight skills. With its discontinuation, thousands of pilots are left without a critical training tool.
What This Means for DJI Air2S Pilots
The discontinuation creates a critical gap for commercial operators who require regular simulation training. Without the DJI Flight Simulator, pilots face potential skill degradation and increased risk during real flights. The timing of the shutdown has left many searching for alternatives that can provide the same level of fidelity and aircraft-specific training experience they had come to rely on.
