‘Fly for Rhino’ offers an alternative method for exploring the Rhino viewport, inspired by video games and game engine viewport navigation. Fly around your 3d models from a first person perspective or walk through architectural models.
This plugin is currently only available for Windows.
DISCLAIMER:

As an independent developer, I have a limited capacity to help resolve issues.

You can also ‘walk’ by locking the height of movement with the ‘Lock Height’ checkbox.
