ELITE XTS Professional

$995.00

For over 20 years, ELITE’s FAA-approved software has formed the cornerstone of their popular Basic Aviation Training Device (BATD), used by hundreds of flight schools, universities, and academies—and, many individual pilots at home—to learn and practice Instrument skills and procedures. BATD vXTS is the latest version of this software, providing all the features required by the FAA for the new approval document, and more.

Whether the aircraft is simple, complex, high performance, multi-engine piston or turboprop, ELITE has the necessary detail to provide a superior training experience. Each photo realistic aircraft cockpit panel is a beautifully rendered, high-resolution replica of that found in the actual aircraft. All avionics and associated instrumentation, including the GPS, function exactly as their real world counterpart. The Instructor Operator Station (IOS) incorporates many features that permit a wide range of training situations–like setting clouds to meet IFR requirements, changing wind speed and direction to practice holds, and initiating failures to hone emergency skills.

The new FAA Letter of Approval (LOA) is included with the purchase of this upgrade, and will be available on your computer desktop.

Upgrade your BATD software now, and start enjoying the benefits of ELITE BATD vXTS.

ATC Scenarios

These sce­nar­ios fea­ture a real­is­tic ATC envi­ron­ment, with other air­craft giv­ing you a dra­matic sense of being there. ELITE gives you rich visual weather, cloud effects, mist and chang­ing vis­i­bil­ity and some improved functionality.

Expe­ri­ence the Wisconsin/Illinois (EC3), Florida (SE3)& South­ern Cal­i­for­nia (SW2) Approaches in this IAS combo pack.

 

ATC-DRIVEN APPROACH SCENARIOS FOR SE-3 (Florida)
Prac­tice real­is­tic approach sit­u­a­tions in a real-time, non-threatening envi­ron­ment. 25 approaches at 20 air­ports in Cen­tral and South Florida. These inter­ac­tive sce­nar­ios are dri­ven by the voices of authen­tic con­trollers who will expose you to a vari­ety of approaches with real­is­tic, and often chal­leng­ing, clear­ances. You’ll get holds, missed approaches, NDBs, full approaches with pro­ce­dure turns, plus a vari­ety of sur­prises you must be pre­pared for, but may not get the chance to fly in the real world very often. This is sim­ply the safest and most effi­cient way to expe­ri­ence, prac­tice and per­fect all aspects of approaches under sim­u­lated IFR conditions.

USSE included air­ports are the following:

St.Petersburg, Lake­land, Fort Myers, Naples, Immokalee, Orlando, DeLand, San­ford, Day­tona, Ormond Beach, Ft. Pierce, Vero Beach, West Palm Beach, Mel­bourne,Ft. Laud­erdale, Pom­pano, Boca Raton, Kendall-Tamiami.

 

ATC-DRIVEN APPROACH SCENARIOS FOR EC-3 (IL/WI)

USEC included air­ports are the following:

Champaign/Urbana, Dupage (West Chicago), Milwaukee/General Mitchell, Rock­ford, Springfield/Capital

 

ATC-DRIVEN APPROACH SCENARIOS FOR USSW (CA)

USSW features included are the following:

  • 28 dif­fer­ent approaches in the South­ern Cal­i­for­nia area
  • ILS Approaches
  • Local­izer Approaches
  • Local­izer Back Course Approaches
  • VOR/DME Approaches
  • NDB Approaches
  • 12 Fea­tured Airports

Here is a list of the following supported airports/approaches per reigion in the ATC scenarios: EC3  SE3 SW2

SimControlX

Tired of getting up from the pilot seat to change aircraft position or weather?  Would you like to have a comprehensive instructor/operation station (IOS) on your iPad with your EFB? ELITE XTS software is now compatible with the powerful iPad app, SimControlX.

SimControlX is the perfect in-flight companion that helps you focus on the fun of flying without having to navigate tedious simulator menus for routine tasks. Users can try the app from the App Store. SimControlX can be easily installed on your existing iPad and provides a worldwide moving map along with control over weather, scenarios, repositioning, aircraft system failures and many more features within ELITE XTS.

All of this is achieved over a wireless connection to the simulator, allowing solo pilots and instructors to set up their simulator in-flight without getting out of their seats. Users looking for more powerful features on their app or flight schools with commercial use-cases can upgrade to SimControlX Pro by purchasing a license here. SimControlX Pro brings several additions to SimControlX’s already robust feature set, including geo-referenced US IFR charts, advanced weather presets, flight review, vertical approach profile, and cockpit-like instrument readouts.

 

Wi-fi EFB connectivity

ELITE’s soft­ware enables users of ELITE train­ing soft­ware to con­nect the soft­ware to cer­tain iPad flight apps—allowing pilots to bring real-world cock­pit prac­tices into the sim­u­lated flight envi­ron­ment. With this soft­ware and a local WiFi net­work router (pro­vided by user), your sim­u­lated air­craft posi­tion in the ELITE soft­ware will appear geo-referenced on Sec­tional and IFR Enroute charts, IFR Approach Plates, and Air­port Taxi Dia­grams (if those fea­tures are part of the App you are using). Cur­rently, the ELITE Sim-to-App soft­ware sup­ports the fol­low­ing iPad apps:

Handheld GPS connection

Hand­held GPS units and EFBs have become extremely valu­able nav­i­ga­tion com­pan­ions in recent years. The rel­a­tively low cost and capa­bil­ity of these devices is impres­sive, many with func­tion­al­ity rival­ing some of the most sophis­ti­cated panel-mount tech­nol­ogy. Unfor­tu­nately, until now, there has been no good way to thor­oughly learn and prac­tice fly­ing with these devices BEFORE climb­ing in the cock­pit. ELITE rec­og­nized this need and now sup­ports com­mu­ni­ca­tion with hand­held GPSs and EFBs so you can fly with your spe­cific device, on your com­puter, at your convenience.

Become pro­fi­cient in the use of your hand­held GPS and/or EFB devices before head­ing out to the air­craft. Plan a trip then fly it on ELITE uti­liz­ing all the same tools you’ll use on the actual flight. Fly­ing a dry run on the sim will give you a chance to tweak any aspect of your planning/programming as nec­es­sary to obtain max­i­mum safety and util­ity from your air­craft. And, maybe most impor­tantly, sim­ply become famil­iar with the trip and the inte­gra­tion of the devices in a real-time flight environment.

The protocol supported:

  • AV400
  • NMEA

Example of ELITE use with a 696/796 GPS
