HoverPilot
Minimal Python client to connect to RealFlight Link (TCP 18083), exchange RC commands, and expose a Gymnasium-compatible hover environment.
Quickstart
Recommended with uv:
uv sync
cp .env.example .env
uv run hoverpilot-demo
Install the optional reinforcement-learning dependencies to train or play a PPO policy:
uv sync --extra rl
uv run hoverpilot-ppo train --timesteps 50000 --save-path ppo_hoverpilot.pt
By default HoverPilot connects to RealFlight Link at 127.0.0.1:18083. Set
RFLINK_HOST when RealFlight runs on another host or outside the current network
namespace.
Gymnasium Environment
import numpy as np
from hoverpilot.config import HOST, PORT
from hoverpilot.envs import HoverPilotHoverEnv
env = HoverPilotHoverEnv(host=HOST, port=PORT, max_episode_steps=250)
observation, info = env.reset()
action = np.asarray([0.0, 0.0, 0.55, 0.0], dtype=np.float32)
observation, reward, terminated, truncated, info = env.step(action)
The action contains aileron, elevator, throttle, and rudder. See the user
guide for observation layouts, reward and termination behavior, and trainer modes.
