The training packs provide exercises for trenching, pipe placement, excavation around utilities, and more.<\/p>\n<p>The Vortex Advantage can mirror an entire training fleet, with hot-swappable controls and pedals. It also adjusts to equipment-specific sight lines with a rotating 3-display option or the immersive 5-display option.
