Re: Over all question

Hi Frans and welcome.
In my opinion 100% go with the desktop version. This will allow you to create your own gauges and instruments and offers far far more flexibility. The ipad version does not allow you to create your own instruments or gauges. Note - the licences are not interchangeable

Re: Emulate key press with air manager

Hi, you can do this without air manager. An Arduino Leonardo or preferably the chinese Pro Micro at a couple of euros can be programmed to emulate a PC Joystick with up to 32 buttons, you can use some 165 shift registers for the inputs for the buttons. Your sim will recognise the unit as a joystick...

Re: Air Manager 4.2.9 stop loading! (SOLVED)

Absolutely ridiculous. I see it is 3 times now. 1 post is enough. I don't care how much you paid or how much you think you deserve special treatment.

Re: AM and Raspberry Pi pico won't talk in Linus

@jph didn't you get the Pico going on Message Port? Hi Ralph , yes, no problems - but - I use 4.1.6 version of air manager. There is also a thread with myself and gilles talking about 'neopixels' and messageport on the pico and it was working fine. I believe SimPassion will be using the later versi...

Re: Not working autopilot instrument

I don't know anyone who uses a 'mac'. That may be part of your issue. Send a support ticket into the company (SI). I think they may have a mac for testing. Most people use windows.

Re: MAX7219 daisy chain connexion

Thanks, I'll make 2 daisy chains of 2 and 3 modules then. But just to be sure, according to this: https://siminnovations.com/wiki/index.php?title=Hardware_id_list I can connect the 2 daisy chains to (almost) any pin on the arduino mega? like this : Yes, but note the gnd connection needs to be conne...

Re: FMC/MCDU screen with an arduino. Possible?

Hello, I would have liked to know if it was possible to use an arduino (or other USB system) to display the FMC/MCDU screen without using an HDMI screen (VGA etc...). I know that it's possible to retrieve information from FMCs and display it elsewhere on an Android tablet, for example, so I'm think...
