SkyPilot is a crash game from Aardvark Technologies, a betting and gaming technology supplier with a South African address in Illovo. You stake before take-off, the multiplier climbs, and you cash out before the plane flies away or lose the stake. The rules allow up to 100,000x, add a 2x cash-out that appears at random and let you run two bets at once. The studio's page gives 97% for online play, and the rules in its own demo say 96.6%.
RTP (return to player): the share of bets the game pays back over time, as Aardvark Technologies publishes it.

How a SkyPilot round works
Stakes go in before take-off. A bet placed while a plane is in the air waits for the next round, and a Cancel button takes it back until take-off. Once the plane is up the multiplier climbs, faster the longer the plane stays in the air.
The Cashout button shows what your bet would pay at that moment. Press it before the plane flies away and the stake is multiplied by the figure on screen. Miss it and the stake is lost. The multiplier runs from 1.00x to 100,000x, and the lowest auto cash-out is 1.01x, so a flight that ends at 1.00x pays no auto cash-out.
Double Betting lets you place "two independent bets in a single game round", each cashed out separately, so one can leave early while the other stays on.
Auto cash-out, auto play and the random 2x
- Auto Cash Out. Cashes out by itself at a multiplier you set, from 1.01x to 100,000x.
- Auto Play. Plays a set number of rounds at a set stake, and stops early if total winnings, total losses or a single win pass amounts you choose.
- The random 2x cash-out. It "appears randomly during a round", and while it is active all cash-outs are doubled, with a 2x icon below the multiplier. Nobody says how often it comes, so it is nothing to stake around.
- Round history. Past multipliers run along the bottom of the screen: a record of finished flights, not a forecast of the next one.
Which return figure applies: 97%, 96.6% or the shop's
Aardvark's game page gives 97% for online play, while the rules in the studio's own demo say 96.6%, and neither explains the difference. The 92.5% or 95% on the same page belong to the retail version in betting shops.
So read the figure at your casino before you stake. On R1,000 of total stakes, 97% means R970 back in theory and 96.6% means R966. A single session swings far more.
Volatility is listed as "Player-dependent" rather than a rating. The game's own tips say early cash-outs win more often in smaller amounts, while holding on wins less often but can pay much more. The rules give one RTP whatever your target.
When the signal drops mid-flight
A connection lost before take-off means a refund. During the flight the game "will try to auto-cash out your bet", and with auto cash-out on it will attempt to cash out at the multiplier of that moment: an attempt, not a promise. A software or server failure voids and refunds bets.
Auto Play resumes by itself when the connection returns, so a run you thought had ended can carry on. Above a ping of 1,000 ms, shown bottom right, the rules recommend auto cash-out. A Data Saver switch turns the animations off "to save device power".
Free bets now, jackpots and a 50% cash-out coming soon
Aardvark's page for casinos lists Free Bets among the online features available now, with one line: "Encourage players to try". The rules say nothing about them, so read the terms of any free-bet offer at your casino.
Tournaments, leaderboards, multi-tiered jackpots and a 50% cash-out (half now, the rest later) are "Coming Soon" online. The studio's pictures already show jackpot bars and a 50% CASHOUT button, but the rules cover neither. The retail version in betting shops has its own extras, such as one-minute sessions and bets placed up to 100 rounds ahead.
SkyPilot predictors and the next crash
The flight runs on the game's servers, the rules publish no seed or hash a player could check, and the history bar shows only finished rounds. An app that promises the next crash can take a fee or your casino password, so type that password only into the casino's own site or app.
The game's own strategy tips, in rand
SkyPilot's description lists five approaches. Each changes how much you stake, not the return on each rand.
- Low and high volatility. Cash out early for more frequent, smaller wins, or hold on for rarer, larger ones. At R10 with a 1.50x target, a win adds R5 and a crash costs R10: one miss cancels two wins.
- Martingale. Double the stake after each loss, which the game itself warns "can deplete your balance quickly during losing streaks". From R5 at 2x, seven losses cost R635 and the eighth bet is R640, to finish R5 ahead, if the casino's maximum stake allows it.
- Reverse Martingale and mixing. Raise the stake after each win, or mix approaches. The crash that ends a streak takes its biggest bet.
