45-MIN SETUPThree items. Then you're flying.
Every extra hour in the airplane costs $180 to $250. The students who finish fastest are the ones who chair-fly procedures between lessons. We make that a subscription instead of a purchase.

ONE-TIME DELIVERY AND SETUP FEE: $149 · MONTH-TO-MONTH AFTER THE FIRST MONTH · DAMAGE WAIVER AVAILABLE · FOUNDING-RATE PRICING FOR THE FIRST 50 DFW RIGS
Cost of one aircraft hour with an instructor. Save three hours over your training and the rig paid for itself.
Hours the average student takes to finish a 40-hour-minimum private certificate. The gap is decay between lessons.
Dollars of hardware you have to buy, set up, or resell when training ends.
If it fits a desktop computer, it fits SimCrate.
No special wiring, no dedicated room, no gaming PC of your own. Here is the complete list of what we need from your end, checked during your 5-minute booking call so delivery day has zero surprises.
DESK OR TABLE
48 IN WIDE MINAny sturdy desk or table at least 48 inches wide and 24 inches deep with a straight front edge. The yoke clamps under the edge; no drilling, no marks.
CLEAR SPACE
5 FT x 5 FTRoom for the desk, your chair, and rudder pedals on the floor in front of you. A corner of a bedroom, office, or garage is plenty.
POWER
1 STANDARD OUTLETOne regular 120V wall outlet within 6 feet. The whole rig draws about 350 watts, less than a microwave. We bring the surge protector.
INTERNET
25 MBPS · WIFI OKUsed for scenery data, nav database updates, and remote support. The sim itself flies fine offline, so an internet outage never cancels a session.
FLOOR
ANY · MAT INCLUDEDRudder pedals grip best on hard floor. On carpet, the anti-slide mat we include keeps them planted.
CHAIR
YOURSAny desk chair works. Lock the wheels or use the mat if it rolls. That's the entire list.
Straight answers.
Can I log the time?
On the BATD Pro, yes. It's an FAA-approved Basic Aviation Training Device: up to 10 hours toward the instrument rating with your CFII, 2.5 hours toward the private certificate, and instrument currency for rated pilots with no instructor required. The Standard rig is for proficiency practice and isn't loggable, which is exactly how most students use a sim anyway.
Will it match the airplane I actually train in?
That's the point. Tell us your school and aircraft and we deliver the rig configured to it: the same avionics layout, the same performance profile, steam gauges or glass. Practice at home transfers to the airplane because it looks and behaves like the airplane.
What if something breaks?
Remote support fixes most software issues same-day. If hardware fails and we can't fix it remotely, we swap the rig within 48 hours. Normal wear is on us. A damage waiver is available at signup for everything else.
What do I need at home for it to work?
Four things: a sturdy desk at least 48 inches wide, about 5 by 5 feet of clear space, one standard wall outlet (the rig draws about 350W), and internet of 25 Mbps or better for updates and remote support. The sim runs offline, so spotty internet never grounds you. No special wiring, no gaming PC, no tools. Full details in the spec sheet above, and we confirm everything on a 5-minute call before delivery.
Is there a contract?
Month-to-month after the first month. When you pass your checkride, or life happens, we schedule a pickup and billing stops. No cancellation fees, no remaining-term buyout.
Where is this available?
We're launching in Dallas Fort Worth in fall 2026 with a limited first fleet. Join the waitlist and we'll reach out in order as rigs become available. Outside DFW? Join anyway, shipped rigs are on the roadmap and the waitlist tells us where to go next.
