- Will startup process be simplified or full(all noted systems above)?


All systems above will be fully simulated, just with reduced waiting times.
For example, while in reality the gyro takes 2,5min to spin up, in the sim it will be reduced to 25s, the anode heating will be accomplished only in 30s instead of realistic 3min etc...
