Aviator is the game that started the crash genre — a plane takes off, a multiplier climbs from 1.00x, and you cash out before it flies away. Simple to explain, harder to play well, because the only skill involved is timing your exit. I tested it at Johnny Kash to check the RTP, the payout cap, and what the maths actually looks like once the plane starts climbing.
How does the Aviator multiplier work?
Spribe built Aviator around a published probability formula: P = 97/M, where M is the multiplier you're targeting. At 2x, the plane has roughly a 48.5% chance of still flying — just under a coin flip. At 10x, that drops to 9.7%. By 50x you're down to under 2%. The multiplier has no theoretical cap, but most rounds crash well below 2x — big multipliers are rare by design, not by bad luck.
The default RTP is 97%, giving a 3% house edge. Some operators configure a lower RTP variant (94–96%), so it's worth checking the in-game info panel at Johnny Kash before you assume you're on the standard build. Dual betting is supported — you can run two separate stakes in the same round, each with its own cashout target, which is how most experienced players manage the timing decision.
| Target multiplier | Chance plane survives | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 2.00x | 48.5% | Roughly a coin-flip outcome |
| 5.00x | 19.4% | Under 1 in 5 rounds reach this point |
| 10.00x | 9.7% | Roughly 1 in 10 rounds |
| 50.00x | 1.9% | Rare — most sessions won't see this |
The pattern in that table isn't linear — each doubling of the target multiplier roughly halves your odds, which is exactly what the chart below shows visually.
Author's tip from Chloe Summers, Lottery & Bingo Specialist: "Set an auto-cashout target before the round starts, not while the multiplier is climbing. Watching the number rise in real time is exactly when most players talk themselves into waiting one more second."
What's the payout cap, and is it fair?
Max cash win is capped at A$10,000 per bet at most AU-facing operators, including Johnny Kash — regardless of how high the multiplier reads on screen. The theoretical record multiplier documented across the game's history sits above 2.5 million times the stake, but that number is irrelevant to your actual payout once the cap applies.
Every round is provably fair, verified with SHA-512 and a player-generated seed, so the crash point for a given round can be checked independently after the fact rather than taken on trust.
18+ only. The live multiplayer bets panel and chat can create pressure to chase other players' cashouts — that's a social dynamic, not a strategy, and it's worth recognising before it shapes your betting.
