Rogue Labs is developing Flight Sight, an immersive flight‑training app for Apple Vision Pro that places trainee pilots in the right (pilot’s) seat of a Robinson R44. The studio says the app—captured with Blackmagic’s URSA Cine Immersive and edited in DaVinci Resolve Studio—combines stereoscopic video, 3D helicopter models and spatial procedure maps to deliver ground‑based training for maneuvers from startup through advanced autorotations. A release is expected in the third quarter.

By filming high‑resolution, first‑person lessons inside the cockpit, Rogue Labs aims to recreate the sensory and procedural context of real flights so learners “feel like they’ve already done it once” before stepping into an aircraft. “Capturing maneuvers from the pilot’s perspective creates a powerful sense of presence that boosts memory retention and training readiness,” said Corey Walter, Senior Product Manager at Rogue Labs.

Founder Matt Barnes highlighted the technical demands of helicopter cinematography and the trade‑offs Rogue Labs faced on stabilization, readability and realism. “We needed a wide 3D field of view so viewers can see hand and foot inputs, changing gauges and the 180° outside world. Eliminating all natural helicopter motion felt fake, but too much shake makes gauges unreadable and risks motion sickness,” Barnes said.

Rogue Labs mounted the URSA Cine Immersive in the pilot’s seat for inflight captures and used hangar‑based crane and tripod setups for external preflight sequences. The team cited the camera’s resolution, high‑frame capability and onboard monitors as key to achieving readable cockpit detail in constrained spaces. “The URSA Cine Immersive and Resolve pipeline met our strict technical needs—especially for gauge legibility and low‑light cockpit scenes,” added John “JR” Racine, Creative & Technical Director.

The Flight Sight product blends immersive video with interactive elements: lifelike 3D helicopter models, airport environments, and spatial Airport Procedure Maps to visualize arrivals and departures. Rogue Labs says the approach reduces training cost and risk while optimizing instruction time, and it will also include sightseeing experiences for general users.

Rogue Labs President Cory Hill positioned Flight Sight as a “state‑of‑the‑art spatial training platform” that leverages Apple Vision Pro’s displays to extend simulation beyond screens into true spatial experiences. The studio expects the combination of cinematic quality, interactive models and Vision Pro’s spatial features to set a new benchmark for remote flight familiarization.

Planned availability in Q3 will give flight schools, students and enthusiasts an early look at how high‑fidelity immersive video can complement conventional simulator and in‑air instruction. Rogue Labs says further production and post‑production work will continue to refine stabilization, color and frame timing to balance realism and user comfort before launch.
