Train Like a Pro, From Home: Why the Cirrus Home Series Changes Everything

by Keaton

Part 1 of 4 in our Cirrus Home Series Spotlight

This post kicks off a 4-part series exploring how the RealSimGear Cirrus Home Series brings professional-grade training into your home. From what makes it unique, to how it’s built, how real pilots use it, and what’s coming next—we’re pulling back the curtain on the most immersive home training system we’ve ever created.


At-home flight simulation used to mean compromise. Clunky setups. Makeshift controls. And avionics that barely resembled the real thing. But with the RealSimGear Cirrus Home Series, that tradeoff is gone. Whether you're a student pilot, a current Cirrus pilot, or just serious about staying proficient, our Cirrus Home simulators bring a level of fidelity and ease that’s unmatched in home training.

Re-Framing The "Home Sim"

These simulators aren’t toys—they’re purpose-built training tools modeled after the Cirrus SR & SF series, with true-to-life ergonomics and replica Garmin avionics. Every knob, button, and screen feels familiar because it's designed to be. This isn't just a sim—it’s a cockpit you already know.

Setup That Fast and Easy

We’ve taken the guesswork (and the toolbox) out of the equation. Each Cirrus Home system is designed to be turnkey:
✅ Pre-wired
✅ Pre-assembled
✅ Ready to go out of the crate
✅ Easy to fit through doorways, move up stairs

You’ll be up and flying in no time—no engineering degree required.

Who Is the Cirrus Home Series For?

The Cirrus Home Series was built for one simple reason: to help more pilots train more often. Whether you're brand new to flight training or have hundreds of hours in a Cirrus, there's real value in being able to practice with the same systems and flows you’ll see in the air.

  • Student Pilots: Get ahead on checklist flow, avionics interaction, and aircraft familiarity—so every lesson in the air is more focused and productive.

  • Instrument-Rated Pilots: Maintain currency, Fly holds, approaches, and procedures without burning Hobbs time or booking a plane.

  • Pilots Transitioning to Cirrus: Just upgraded to a new aircraft? The Home Series helps you build comfort with new avionics, refine workflows, and shorten your transition time before your plane is delivered. 

  • Instructors and Mentors: Guide students or aircraft buyers through avionics, workflows, and what to expect—without ever leaving the ground.

If you fly a Cirrus (or plan to), training at home is one of the smartest, most affordable ways to become a safer, more confident pilot.

Making Safer Pilots

At RealSimGear, most of us fly the same aircraft you do. We understand what real training looks like, and that perspective goes into every home system we build. From flight control feel to avionics behavior, we don’t just replicate the cockpit—we recreate the experience.
