Hi Guys,
Copple of questions as currently building my sim cockpit and want to use Air manager.
Am I right in saying I need 1 licence per device...?
This will then lead on to question number 2 lol..
I will probably only use Air manager for the "Six Pack" and Saitek FIP for the others..
Should I get an iPad for the 6 pack or a monitor which is probably bigger and if so what size. I would like as close as 1:1 scale as possible.
Thank you
Dave

Re: Licence
Easy: an iPad is way too small to house a six pack with the standard size of instruments, especially when considering and adding the blank space between all the round gauges in a real dashboard.
A tactile screen of 17 to 19 inches is definitely the way to go IMHO. This because on most of planes there is a bunch of additional gauges that need to fit as well.
I found out that a 22 inches screen allows to add on the side the engines instruments pack as well, even though a slightly low in overall height space for a complex turbine twin engine gauges such as a Beech 200 Here’s the 22 inches monitor in action, with real sized instruments There are three standard sizes of round gauges: 3-1/8 inches , 2-1/4 inches and 1-1/4 inches
The height is the limiting factor here, a six pack is two rows of full size instruments, with some mounting space between them, and sometimes a bunch of annunciator lights on top of that.
