Whether you need to modify your legacy training systems to achieve concurrency with aircraft configurations or to insert modern technology to improve reliability or training effectiveness, CymSTAR can provide the experience and expertise to meet your requirements. Simulator modifications have been the primary core business of the staff of CymSTAR for the past 10 years.

CymSTAR is especially cost effective at modifying other manufacturer's equipment. We have a penchant for implementing and integrating difficult modifications without disturbing the remaining aspects of the trainer. These capabilities range from minor subsystem or component modifications to complete cockpit upgrades, new avionics insertions, computer re-hosts, and I/O replacements.

The CymSTAR staff has successfully completed over forty concurrency and technology modifications to training devices built by various original equipment manufacturers. In addition, we have designed and produced seven Flight Training Devices which featured the re-hosting of GFE full flight software loads. Successful completion of these projects is direct evidence of CymSTAR’s excellent capability to interpret and understand original manufacturer designs and to modify these designs with minimal disruption to the original systems. This demonstrated experience translates directly into lower cost, schedule and performance risk in training device development, modification and installation.

Frequently, the most elegant or comprehensive solution to a modification is not always possible, due to budget or schedule considerations. Accordingly, CymSTAR's experienced systems engineering staff can custom design the most cost effective solution, given the constraints of the customer.
