Ambats moved from a Cessna 172 into an Avidyne-equipped SR22 during her private-pilot training at Santa Monica. Other pilots had questioned whether the powerful Cirrus was an appropriate student aircraft, and she initially shared their concern. Her first lessons brought stronger acceleration, much more right-pedal pressure on takeoff and a cockpit full of unfamiliar information.

Learning to stay ahead of a more demanding trainer
Ambats moved from a Cessna 172 into an Avidyne-equipped SR22 during her private-pilot training at Santa Monica. Other pilots had questioned whether the powerful Cirrus was an appropriate student aircraft, and she initially shared their concern. Her first lessons brought stronger acceleration, much more right-pedal pressure on takeoff and a cockpit full of unfamiliar information. The side control felt natural, but sensitive electric trim and quicker responses made familiar exercises such as steep turns harder to perform neatly.
With instructor Liz DeStaffany, practice gradually made the busy cockpit manageable. Ambats learned to use the display pages she needed while keeping her attention outside, and to make small trim adjustments after establishing the attitude. The traffic pattern began to feel less hurried. When DeStaffany and Cirrus pilot Rachel Tanzer stepped out for her solo, apprehension had become excitement. Ambats remembers climbing away while the same 172 she had previously soloed circulated nearby, now seeming remarkably slow.

Lee approached the 2012 SR22T with the prejudices of a pilot who preferred biplanes and tailwheel flying. A trip from Southern California to the San Francisco Bay Area, accompanied by Cirrus representative Matt Bergwall and editor Jessica Ambats, changed his view. Hand-flying the first part of the journey, he found substantial, balanced control forces rather than a lightweight feel. The side control still required adjustment, but it freed space in front of him.
As the trip continued, the cabin, integrated avionics and straightforward presentation of information began to make sense as aids to an enjoyable journey. He describes cruising above California farmland, trying the satellite telephone and arriving at San Carlos without drama before a Golden Gate photo flight. On the return, Ambats flew while he stretched out in a reclining rear seat with a book. He still wanted his biplane for an open-air flying experience; the Cirrus had shown him why comfort and convenience matter when the purpose is getting somewhere with friends.

Zimmerman writes after seven years flying an SR22, having spent his first thousand hours largely in Cessna singles. A real journey in the Cirrus convinced him that its popularity involved more than appearance. He values the comfortable passenger cabin, integrated avionics and relatively uncomplicated workload for its performance. The side control ceased to feel unusual after his first flight, and he enjoys both family trips and short solo outings in the aircraft.
His appreciation includes practical irritations. He dislikes the lack of nosewheel steering and rudder trim, finds the cabin noisy, and recalls climbs where engine temperatures required more attention than he wanted. Those are his operating impressions rather than a controlled comparison of every SR22 version. He also regards the parachute as useful equipment while explicitly saying he has never deployed it. For the kinds of journeys he regularly makes, the balance remains favourable: a capable travelling aircraft that is sufficiently straightforward for him to relax and enjoy flying.

The simulator model and controls
The SR22 entered production in 2001 as a more powerful development of Cirrus's SR20. A low wing, fixed tricycle gear and side-yoke controls define the basic layout. The Cirrus Airframe Parachute System is a prominent part of the aircraft's design.
This profile selects TorqueSim SR22 for X-Plane 12.
How this profile feels
Spring resistance builds with the selected airspeed response. A separate aerodynamic term adds speed-dependent control load.
Valid trim provides the configured pressure relief. Autopilot following is off.
Controls and trim
Laminar's manual is titled SR22 but describes its simulated SR22T. It explains an electric motor and mechanical springs changing the side-control neutral instead of an elevator trim tab. The documented 50/100-percent flap settings and 150/110 KIAS limits belong to that aircraft. TorqueSim, REP and Carenado represent other engine and avionics configurations, so Laminar's assignments are not their qualified interfaces.
The selected implementation
TorqueSim separates 310-hp IO-550-N SR22 from Tornado Alley SR22TN, with Perspective/Entegra editions and mechanical side-yoke scope.
About the values
The gains are normalized profile settings. They describe the chosen effect balance; hand force depends on the device and its output limits. IAS references are tuning values rather than operating limits. Physical acceptance of this revision remains pending.
Documentary review and sources
These decisions describe the documentary basis and remaining gaps for this revision. Aircraft documentation and a starting setting describe different kinds of evidence.

Trim
InheritedElectric spring-based trim changes neutral, providing mechanism context for pressure relief without deriving an exact hardware authority. Pitch authority 0.3 provides load relief and permitted centre movement; roll authority is 0.12.
Autopilot and stability

Speeds and limits
InheritedThe indicated-speed references set the profile response scale; they are separate from aircraft operating limits.
Simulator integration
InheritedThe profile targets xplane12. Add-on-specific controls use only the supported references configured by this profile.
Force-feedback settings
InheritedThe settings define the profile’s effect balance. Device output limits affect physical hand force.
Starting settings and their rationale
These configured values are starting estimates. The explanations describe what each setting controls; physical validation appears separately below.
| Setting | Starting value | What it controls and why |
|---|---|---|
| Spring strength | Starting value0.74 | What it controls and whyMechanically connected side yokes motivate control loading; these controls are not passive Airbus-style sidesticks. The baseline spring is 0.74. Low-speed spring blending is off. |
| Master force gain | Starting value0.85 | What it controls and whyScales overall profile strength while preserving effect balance, subject to device and output limits. |
| Profile force gain | Starting value0.8 | What it controls and whyThe aerodynamic-load gain is 0.8 with an indicated-speed reference of 160 KIAS. This supplies speed-dependent loading alongside the spring. |
| Force tuning speed/reference | Starting value160 kt | What it controls and whySets the IAS reference for aerodynamic loading. It is an estimate, not published cruise TAS or a flight limit. |
| Spring response reference speed | Starting value65 kt | What it controls and whySets the IAS where the low-speed blend reaches baseline strength; high-speed stiffening also uses it. |
| Aileron force scale | Starting value0.72 | What it controls and whyRoll and pitch aerodynamic scales are 0.72 and 1, respectively. They set the aerodynamic axis balance. No custom spring-travel curve is enabled. |
| Elevator force scale | Starting value1 | What it controls and whyScales pitch aerodynamic loading; pitch spring travel and trim responses are separate settings. |
| Trim feel | Starting valueDisabled | What it controls and whyRetained for compatibility and group membership. Trim relief, rather than this flag, controls centre movement. |
| Trim relief | Starting valueEnabled | What it controls and whyAllows trim relief with supported control law and valid telemetry. Axis authorities set its amount. |
| Autopilot follow | Starting valueDisabled | What it controls and whyAutopilot following is off; the configured spring and load retain the hardware feel. |
| Autopilot neutral hold | Starting valueDisabled | What it controls and whyPermits centering hold during a supported AP state, separate from following a moving target. |
| Output force limit | Starting value0.55 | What it controls and whyCaps directed-force output. Native spring effects and device limits remain separate. |
All 44 starting settings and their rationale
The settings define the profile’s effect balance. Device output limits affect physical hand force.
| Setting | Starting value | What it controls and why |
|---|---|---|
| Spring strength | Starting value0.74 | What it controls and whyMechanically connected side yokes motivate control loading; these controls are not passive Airbus-style sidesticks. The baseline spring is 0.74. Low-speed spring blending is off. |
| Spring deadband | Starting value0.045 | What it controls and whySets travel around the centre before the baseline spring resists. Smaller values engage it sooner. |
| Profile force gain | Starting value0.8 | What it controls and whyThe aerodynamic-load gain is 0.8 with an indicated-speed reference of 160 KIAS. This supplies speed-dependent loading alongside the spring. |
| Master force gain | Starting value0.85 | What it controls and whyScales overall profile strength while preserving effect balance, subject to device and output limits. |
| QBlend Enabled | Starting valueDisabled | What it controls and whyAllows baseline spring strength to rise with indicated airspeed where the control law permits it. |
| QSpring Minimum Factor | Starting value0.5 | What it controls and whySets low-speed spring strength as a fraction of baseline when blending is enabled. One keeps full strength. |
| QSpring Start Knots | Starting value8 kt | What it controls and whySets the IAS where the low-speed spring blend starts rising. This is a feel threshold, not a flight limit. |
| Spring response reference speed | Starting value65 kt | What it controls and whySets the IAS where the low-speed blend reaches baseline strength; high-speed stiffening also uses it. |
| Force tuning speed/reference | Starting value160 kt | What it controls and whySets the IAS reference for aerodynamic loading. It is an estimate, not published cruise TAS or a flight limit. |
| Airspeed spring stiffening gain | Starting value0.15 | What it controls and whyThe high-speed spring-stiffening gain is 0.15. It strengthens the permitted spring response above 65 KIAS, with the squared-speed ratio capped at 5. |
| Airspeed spring stiffening limit | Starting value5 | What it controls and whyLimits the squared airspeed ratio used for high-speed spring stiffening; it is not a device-force cap. |
| Aileron force scale | Starting value0.72 | What it controls and whyRoll and pitch aerodynamic scales are 0.72 and 1, respectively. They set the aerodynamic axis balance. No custom spring-travel curve is enabled. |
| Elevator force scale | Starting value1 | What it controls and whyScales pitch aerodynamic loading; pitch spring travel and trim responses are separate settings. |
| Output force limit | Starting value0.55 | What it controls and whyCaps directed-force output. Native spring effects and device limits remain separate. |

| Elevator Authority | Starting value0.3 | What it controls and whyElectric spring-based trim changes neutral, providing mechanism context for pressure relief without deriving an exact hardware authority. Pitch authority 0.3 provides load relief and permitted centre movement; roll authority is 0.12. |
| Aileron Authority | Starting value0.12 | What it controls and whyScales supported roll-trim relief and permitted centre movement. Zero removes roll response. |
| Force Trim Enabled | Starting valueDisabled | What it controls and whyEnables local force trim, separate from aircraft-owned trim and add-on integration qualification. |
| GLoad Enabled | Starting valueEnabled | What it controls and whyAllows load-factor changes to modify permitted spring laws. Passive fly-by-wire feel can suppress it. |
| Rate Damping Enabled | Starting valueEnabled | What it controls and whyEnables rate damping with the configured coefficients and control law. |
| Autopilot follow | Starting valueDisabled | What it controls and whyAutopilot following is off; the configured spring and load retain the hardware feel. |
| Autopilot follow authority | Starting value0.1 | What it controls and whySets admitted AP-follow gain, not a percentage of travel. Runtime ownership and input limits still apply. |
| Autopilot neutral hold | Starting valueDisabled | What it controls and whyPermits centering hold during a supported AP state, separate from following a moving target. |
| Autopilot neutral hold strength | Starting value0.6 | What it controls and whySets admitted AP neutral-hold strength; inactive while neutral hold is disabled. |
| Enabled | Starting valueEnabled | What it controls and whyEnables aerodynamic cues; each still needs nonzero strength and its simulator conditions. |
| Gain | Starting value0.35 | What it controls and whySets stall-buffet strength. Zero removes the cue without changing simulator stalls or warnings. |
| Gain | Starting value0 | What it controls and whySets high-Mach buffet strength; onset and full-strength thresholds are separate. |
| Gain | Starting value0 | What it controls and whySets flap buffet at the configured position and speed gates. Flap movement texture is separate. |
| Maximum flap index | Starting value2 | What it controls and whySets the final flap index for detent normalization. UP plus three detents uses maximum index3. |
| Minimum flap index | Starting value2 | What it controls and whySets the first flap detent that admits buffet; this is a handle index, not degrees. |
| Gain | Starting value0 | What it controls and whySets gear aerodynamic buffet; movement and ground-contact cues are separate. |
| Shaker Enabled | Starting valueDisabled | What it controls and whyPermits shaker at supported warning conditions; the switch does not establish aircraft equipment. |
| Stick shaker amplitude | Starting value0.5 | What it controls and whySets triggered shaker strength; inactive while the shaker feature is disabled. |
| Enabled | Starting valueEnabled | What it controls and whyEnables ground effects; each still needs its own strength and contact or motion telemetry. |
| Gain | Starting value0.4 | What it controls and whySets rolling texture strength, modified by speed, surface and undercarriage configuration. |
| Gain | Starting value0.25 | What it controls and whySets gear-bump texture during ground motion, separate from touchdown impact. |
| Gain | Starting value0.65 | What it controls and whySets landing-impact strength; landing telemetry and response shape determine the pulse. |
| Gain | Starting value0 | What it controls and whySets reverse-thrust vibration with valid reverser and engine conditions. Zero removes the cue. |
| Enabled | Starting valueEnabled | What it controls and whyEnables engine cues with nonzero settings and valid running-engine telemetry. |
| Gain | Starting value0.12 | What it controls and whySets estimated engine vibration using configured telemetry and response, not measured cockpit vibration. |
| Enabled | Starting valueEnabled | What it controls and whyEnables accessory cues with configured strengths and observed accessory movement. |
| Gain | Starting value0.12 | What it controls and whySets texture from observed flap movement; a command without movement does not establish the cue. |

Limits and open questions
- TorqueSim SR22; xplane12. Previously observed titles and implementation identifiers are retained; installed matching remains deferred.
- Mechanical side yoke with spring-cartridge centring and residual aerodynamic loading. No passive-FBW classification, gravity stick drop or mass-derived torque. Persistent spring support is retained at zero airspeed.
- Estimated pitch/roll neutral movement models the spring-cartridge concept; it is not an external moving trim tab. Exact add-on normalized-trim mapping is unqualified. No addition of trim to simulator joystick output.
- Distinct G1000 and Entegra AFCS packages; early mechanical roll-trim/AP description does not prove the installed add-on exposes a valid servo target. AP servo-follow and neutral hold remain disabled; engagement indicators are not force-demand signals.
- Fixed tricycle wheels and flaps. G1000/Entegra display options preserve primary mechanical geometry; G3TN is not the later SR22T airframe. SR22G3, normally aspirated IO550N; matching stays separate from TN.
- 160 KIAS is an estimated feel reference, not cruise TAS or a certified limit. No invented Mach, VNE or weight scheduling.
- Read-only native telemetry for aircraft motion and accessory positions. Custom switches, display animations and mode lamps are not calibrated servo targets. No unverified LVars/datarefs or simulator writes.
- Spring 0.74; lateral scale 0.7; trim authorities 0.3/0.12; per-axis output cap 0.55. Editable engineering estimates, not measured hand forces. No body-rate torque, surface following or fabricated hydraulic-failure loads.
- New physical and installed-product checks deferred by owner. Existing separately recorded acceptance retains its original device, simulator, add-on and version limits. Source review does not broaden custom telemetry acceptance.
- Only actual accessory position changes drive movement texture; static drag and command-triggered kicks are disabled. Select and save an aircraft default when telemetry lacks a discriminating developer/configuration identity.
Physical validation
No physical force validation is recorded in this public catalogue for this revision. Documentary review and software checks do not establish how a particular device feels.
