Just downloaded the app. Does the app send flight plans to x-plane or receive flight plans from x-plane? Unable to do so here. The com and nav interacts bi-directional. Is it possible to post a few notes regarding capabilities. Thx rf

For certified software, we have FAA rules. For iPad apps, we have Apple rules :( ...

Awesome!
Well now I’m checking the App Store about 5x a day to see when it will be available. This really is a powerful development and I believe will help see more IFDs. Thanks John Freeman

Do you know if the trainer can be set to drive the autopilot and interact with other instruments as a true nav/com 1 or nav/com 2?
For instance it would be great to have true VOR signal simulation to use with the IFDs. Thanks John Freeman Memphis TN

Oh my goodness! This is such good news. I have been waiting for this for a long time. The ability to use IFDs in the simulator environment is huge for me. It really increases my “muscle memory” of working the IFDs and thus my safety and competency in single pilot IFR.
Thanks Avidyne John Freeman Memphis TN

Well, thanks for that, a step in the right direction. Any chance you will be looking at doing something similar for L-M's Prepar3d (P3D) ? * Orest

Looking forward to this.
Now if you could make it work with the Redbird flight sim (BATD) that I use for currency ...

Whoo hoo, sweet! I just built a sim with XPlane 11. Can’t wait to start practicing instrument procedures using the IFD 540 Trainer instead of a faux G* GPS. This will really help with proficiency.

Be on the lookout over the next few days for a new IFD Trainer app for XPlane which will be available soon on the app store.
The iPad app will automatically connect to an instance of XPlane that is running on the same network. No plugin for XPlane is required. We know it works with XPlane 11 and it probably works with previous versions. You won't see a picture of the IFD if you zoom in on the XPlane cockpit. Doesn't matter, though, because you'll have a nice big IFD running full time on your iPad! |
