@Chris,

You beat me to it.

The sim is actually pretty good, so good that  it can be used to regain currency if it lapses. Per the regulatory requirements for the use of a Raven A (and B) system by Department of Interior employees: 

"...If currency is lost prior to a mission, the operator must regain currency by flying three emergency scenarios in the UAS simulator OR fly under the observation of a current UAS pilot or certified trainer".

Given the cost and difficulty of airspace access, it's a great option.
