About Us

Hi, my name is Roy, I am the developer of XPRealistic, here's a quick story,
It all started like this...




One month later and XPRealistic Pro was released. Here in rkApss, we believe in bringing ideas to reality, creating them, and delivering a high quality products.


rkApps has been around since 2010, mainly focusing on delivering real world aviation apps. Since X-Plane 11 was out (such a great product), it got most of our attention to the point of creating XPRealistic. We are already working on one more project for X-Plane 11, more details to come later on this year.

"I give V2 a score of 11 out of 10 points. It’s like going from XP11 to XP12."


"In my opinion, this is the best add-on ever for XP11. The effects are totally jaw dropping, it makes the experience light-years more immersive."


"Thank you for making such a great product for the community. This plugin I would vote X-Plane's best plugin of the year!"


"This plugin really adds so much immersion. I’m used to the head shake plugin but this is so much better because the plane shakes rather than the view."


"Surely a must have. Absolutely amazing!"


"I bought it and it’s indeed a fantastic addon. It completely transforms XP11, taking the immersion to another level."


"Great addon. Must have for X Plane."


"A great enhancement for X-Plane. I think the effects provided will really make X-Plane as close to the real thing as is possible."


"I loved the 1st version,this one looks very amazing specially the sounds. It's a must have for me as well as a weather engine"


"The V2 is great with the new ASXP integration. I experienced a lot of turbulence today on my flight."


"XPRealistic V2 is an amazing program. It's like 'ear candy'. There is more to this add on than just Vulkan support which I am very happy to see. One of my favourite plug-ins."


"This is honestly the best addon I have ever purchased and used in X-Plane. The new GUI is absolutely perfect IMHO. "


"XP Realistic Pro V2 is truly a MUST HAVE! It elevates X-Plane to an unprecedented level of immersion."


"Great plugin! I‘ve been user since v1. Therefore I‘ve made use of the very fair update option for v2. And I must say, it‘s absolutely worth it. Great effects and a nice clean UI. Working like a charm for me. Highly recommended!"


"All seems to work great. Especially liking the water and splashing sounds with sea planes, very well implemented."


"Since the day I met XPrealistic Pro V1 I never stopped using it, it's the best immersion plugins for aircraft, now the V2 version looks fantastic."


"Just upgraded to V2. Wow its amazing. Very easy to use. Goes great with my DIY Buttkicker."


"Yesterday I was able to test the trial version of XPRealisitc V2 and it is spectacular. One of the best addons, no doubt. It gives you a realism that is necessary in a flight simulator."
