At ZALA's certified training centre, training highly qualified specialists is a priority. For this purpose, Russia's first virtual reality (VR) simulator was developed to practise BVS operation skills.

The virtual reality mode turns the hardware and software module into a full-fledged flight simulator, allowing operators to regularly maintain their skills at a high level and to teach additional skills of UAV control. Initially, the simulator was intended for technicians, allowing them to hone their skills in pre-flight training and post-flight inspection of the drone. Today, the virtual reality simulator is adapted for training and practising command actions of UAS Operators.

The simulator allows practising the full cycle of work with the complex from deployment to landing of the BVS. All virtual reality objects in the simulator behave similarly to material reality objects. The flight task is formed individually for each user, taking into account the complexity of the task, the type of aircraft being flown, weather conditions and terrain for the simulated flight.

The virtual reality simulator is also used for advanced training and retraining of BVS Operators.

The introduction of a virtual reality simulator maximises the effectiveness of training in a classroom environment, while eliminating all operational risks.
