# Using the DeltaQuad Evo simulator

The DeltaQuad Evo simulator can be used to get familiar with the Auterion Mission Control interface and to use the pilot controls before actually flying the Evo for the first time.  

Requirements:

* A registered Auterion Suite account.
* A computer running either Linux, Windows 10/11, macOS, or any Android device.
* An installation of AMC.
* A stable internet connection.

{% hint style="info" %}
The simulator has some limitations to be aware of:

* The simulator does not accurately simulate battery usage.
* The simulator uses always a wind direction coming from the east. Therefore all the missions flown in the simulator will take off and transition in that direction.
* The simulator is limited to three locations to choose from.
* The available ISR payload is limited in its functionality.
* The simulator runs best with AMC v.1.22.3 available via the *Downloads* tab in Auterion Suite.
  {% endhint %}

To use the DeltaQuad Evo simulator, please follow the instructions:

#### 1) If you haven't done so yet, please register an account in Auterion Suite. Instructions can be found [here](/evo/auterion-suite/create-an-auterion-suite-account.md).

#### 2) Log in to your Auterion Suite account.

* Set the *Simulation Run Time*.

<figure><img src="/files/TZEOxBAhFKWV8J3Bdh8x" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* For full functionality, we recommend selecting Software Version 2.5.1.

<figure><img src="/files/pMwmHRhFRw2MgnJafJVo" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* Click on *Creating simulation*.

<figure><img src="/files/nZsIpsGXXY0g551RwX3s" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* As the simulation is cloud-based, the process of creating one may take several minutes.
