SkyYoke is free to download and try. **SkyYoke Pro** removes the free version's limits and unlocks the advanced features.

## Free version limits

The free version is enough to set up, taxi and try a short flight. Two limits apply:

| Limit | What happens |
| --- | --- |
| **85% thrust** | The throttle and TO/GA stop at 85%. Keep pushing for three seconds and **Subscribe to unlock full thrust** appears. |
| **500 ft for 60 seconds** | After 60 seconds more than 500 ft above the ground, a **Subscribe to keep flying** screen covers the cockpit. Before it appears, SkyYoke sets the autopilot to a safe climb (240 kt, +400 ft/min, current heading) so the aircraft is never left uncontrolled. Only Pro removes it. |
