• Fixed manual controller calibration issue where the 'Invert' toggle would not always have the desired effect.
  
• Fixed button setup UI issue where clearing or overwriting an action would not properly reset the overridden action.

Dquad has been with Liftoff since the early days and have never disappointed in offering a unique top quality experience. Try it in Liftoff first and find out why we are so excited about this news. Currently the Dquad Fixation is only available in Liftoff, but soon in real life as well!




With this update we are not just extending our long-term partnership with drone manufacturer Dquad, we are finally joined by one of the biggest names in the FPV world. Please welcome Gemfan to the Liftoff family!



In this update we include top-of-the-line Gemfan props, represented as the first translucent propellers in Liftoff.

And that's not where this partnership ends, we have some exciting things in the works that we will reveal soon.

Liftoff wouldn't be here today without the help of our awesome partners. A big thank you to everyone that supports this one of a kind community!

The long awaited Slipstream DLC is finally here!

Don't know what Slipstream is about? It's our answer to the many "please add things to chase" question, and its effin' glorious too!

Slipstream is an optional DLC that brings a new layer of excitement to Liftoff: FPV Drone Racing: - a time trial on Short Circuit, a drag race in Bando City, mining trucks going about their business in The Pit and so much more. All of this for the sweet price of "buy us a coffee".

The Liftoff team is at Gamescom to celebrate the Liftoff franchise and its amazing community. To share the celebration, we have activated a double XP week for Liftoff!

Playing Liftoff will earn you double the amount of XP points in-game to unlock more cosmetic items!
Note: A free Liftoff Pro Account is required to earn XP and unlock gift boxes.


As an additional celebration, we have more news to share during Gamescom:
Between our regular Liftoff updates, the team at LuGus Studios has been working on a new exciting simulator. We will reveal the name and logo of the project next week during Gamescom 2022, but here's a first teaser for our fans!

Blades spinning
A solemn cutting of the first of the corn
An offering is made

Each year we bring back the age old Lughnasadh harvest festivial, a celebration held on the first week of August, dedicated to the celtic god Lugus. Let's celebrate!

Find and harvest (activate) all LuGus cubes in a single environment during the LuGus festival event to unlock the time limited "LuGus Fest" achievement.

Fixing some long standing bugs and including a bunch of community requests, Liftoff update 1.4.7 brings some extra shine to the polish.
