Pilot RTP and fairness
Pilot is Gamzix's first crash game, released at the end of September 2022: a red plane climbs across a dark sky and you cash out before it flies off. This page sets out what is published about its return and its maximum win, flags a figure that belongs to a different game, and is clear that no provably fair system is documented for it.
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Published RTP | 96.5% |
| House edge | 3.5% |
| Average return per 100 units staked | 96.50 |

How a Pilot round plays out
Before take-off you place one or two bets. Once the plane leaves, the multiplier climbs from 1.00x until the plane flies away at a point the game has already decided. Each bet can be cashed out by hand, by an auto cash-out target, or in part: the 50% cash-out banks half the stake at the current multiplier and leaves the other half in the air. A bet still in play when the plane leaves is lost, and no single bet can win more than 1,000 times its stake.

Gamzix's launch announcement gives neither the RTP nor the maximum, so both come from game databases. They agree on 96.5% and 1,000x, although one SlotCatalog tag rounds the RTP down to 96%. This site uses 96.5% and 1,000x.
Is Pilot provably fair?
Not as far as any published source shows. The launch announcement mentions "fair play" only in passing, one aggregator lists Pilot as not provably fair, and we found no seed, hash or verification procedure from Gamzix. We also found no testing-laboratory certificate for the title. Gamzix itself is listed as holding a Malta Gaming Authority supplier licence (Sigma directory).
So there is no check you can run on a Pilot round yourself. The protection you have is regulation: play only at a casino whose licence you can look up, and read the RTP in the game's own rules screen there. Any guide that tells you to "verify the hash" of a Pilot round is describing a different game.
96.5% in money terms
Over the long run the house keeps 3.5% of everything wagered, about 3.50 per 100. Cash-out timing does not change that: a 2.00x target lands in roughly 48% of rounds and a 10x target in under 10%, yet both return 96.5% on average. The half cash-out also returns 96.5%. It only makes results swing less, because each half behaves like a separate bet with its own exit. Two bets per round double the amount the edge works on. The Pilot RTP article works through the half cash-out step by step.
Pilot is not Pilot Coin
Gamzix later released Pilot Coin, a reskin that is listed with a 5,000x maximum (Sigma). Pages that give Pilot a 5,000x top win have usually mixed the two up. If the game in your lobby shows a different maximum or RTP, its own rules screen takes precedence over this page.
A note on this site's data
The results, records and dataset shown here are generated by a model of Pilot's published 96.5% RTP and 1,000x cap, not collected from casinos. The methodology page explains how the model works and where it falls short.
