WE'RE THINKING BIG
The Simulator
- Saturn Flight Simulator is a patented flight training simulator, developed from the scratch to enhance flight training.
- Positioned to be disruptive with its unique design, allowing for unrestricted 360 degree rotation on Yaw, Roll, Pitch and Linear motion for Heave.
- Saturn Sim is a concept for a novel flight simulator, which incorporates four degrees-of-freedom (4DOF) of mechanical motion to simulate full 6DOF motion as experienced by the user. As a result of the device kinematic configuration.
- This device can achieve simulation of flight profiles that are not achievable using alternate flight simulator motion architectures.
- The ultimate intent of the Saturn Sim team is FAA certification of a device implementing this technology as a full-flight simulator (FFS).
- Saturn Simulator has garnered lot of positive feedback from aviation industry, including pilots and training facilities around the globe.
- Although a three-axis gimbal system has been well-proven for angular motion control in various other applications, it has not yet been applied to a flight simulation application and represents a novel approach which allows flight path trajectories that are not achievable with the Stewart platform.
- The Saturn Sim team is interested in securing investment resources which will enable the construction of a prototype and performance of initial feasibility testing.
- Designed to overcome limitations on traditional steward platform simulators, which has maximum displacement of 25-30 degrees, and are inheritably expensive for purchase, operation and maintenance.
- Designed for all level of flight training and aircraft configuration, it would be vital equipment for all-inclusive training replacing existing simulator fleet.
- High return on investments is anticipated for this venture.
Simulator Highlights
- Full unrestricted 360 degree rotation on all axis (Yaw, Pitch & Roll) and Linear motion for Heave.
- High fidelity, as close as it gets to the real aircraft flying experience with unsurpassed audio, visual, motion & intelligent feedback systems for enhanced sensory perception.
- Designed for comparatively low operations, maintenance and training cost.
- Requires no major infrastructure or facility upgrades.
- Display 220 degree x 40 degree
- Boundless training device for Initial, Recurrent, Instrument, Commercial, Type-rating, Aerobatics, Unusual Attitudes, Stalls-Upset Prevention & Recovery, Combat, Agriculture and Fire-fighting.
- Easily scalable & configurable for light single engine aircraft to heavy multi-engine aircraft, including combat training.
- Combat configuration planned to include wrap around display with high rate, yaw, roll and pitch capabilities.
- Hobbyist, Students & Pilots at all levels can have access to FFS experience & training.
Timeline
Saturn Flight Simulator is in engineering/architecture phase for electro-mechanical, electronics and other components for prototype.
We are currently seeking Funding, Partners & Collaborators for further development to prototype and production of simulators.
Successive to funding inception, we estimate test/working models to be operational within 12 months and, production & delivery starting in another 12 months.
Market
Global simulator market is expected to grow to USD $40+ Billion by 2025.
Rising concerns over pilot demand, training cost, fluctuating fuel prices, and saving on actual aircraft maintenance & repair cost are some factors favorably driving the global simulator demand including, importance of aircraft safety, and need for substantial training.
Advanced / FFS Simulators currently available in market have high acquisition cost, coupled with high on-going operation and maintenance costs.
