Flight Sim 2020, Instruments on iPads - a low cost solution
มุมมอง 65K2 ปีที่แล้ว
This video outlines a low cost FS 2020 setup using external iPads to display instruments and other data. *Apologies - the Glass App didn't make it into the final edit. You should be able to get an idea of that though from the other Apps I presented. My equipment and app costs: 3 used iPad Mini 2012 editions = $120 CAD (approx. £77 / $92 USD) Multiple iPad apps as shown = Circa $60 CAD (approx. ...

how to connect the gauges to potentiometers? is it possible?
It’s been very helpful love the video
Try VR. You will never come back to flat screen.
Sensacional Comando.
What’s that main Xbox thing either the wheel and the other things
@@lger_tp9582 it a Velocity One Flight Yoke. I’m using it with the PC but it also has an XBOX mode. There is a small LCD screen on the yoke to switch between PC and XBOX mode and to change various settings
@@georgefindlay thank you I wanted it for pc lol
I deffo wanna see the ipad setup more, happy flying
what app you are using for six pack on ipads?
Very interesting
If i had this i think id use it two days a yr
@@darugdawg2453 I’m using iPad apps from remoteflight.net. I have a longer video on my channel that describes the setup in more detail
so like $10k in flight gear and a $150 AOC monitor?
The yoke and rudder cost a bit, however the iPads are 10+ years old (I have longer video talking through that setup). The radio comms panel on the right is a 3D printed creation of mine powered by an Arduino and Mobiflight software.
@@georgefindlayso basically yes to the original comment.
@@LoudPxckk No, not really. The pricing for a velocity one yoke and rudder can be found online. Low hundreds; not thousands and certainly not ten thousand.
Cool stuff!
Hola. Que versión de tablet utiliza? Gracias
I am using 2012 iPad Minis. Two of them are "MD528LL/A" and the third is the cellular version "MD534LL/A". The reason I have two models is because the second hand electrics shop only had these in stock. Both run IOS 9 and are functionally the same for the Flight Sim apps. These links contain a bit more about the iPad Mini specs: www.sellyourmac.com/mac-product-guides/ipad/md528ll-a-ipad-mini-wifi-16gb.html and www.sellyourmac.com/mac-product-guides/ipad/md534ll-a-ipad-mini-wifi-cellular-att-16gb.html
No offense to anyone, but just use Air Manager and a <200$ 21" touchscreen. Running msfs on a laptop is not a good idea, even a gaming laptop will run extremely hot. Use your ipad for navigraph or mcdu. Why use 3 x $500 ipad. George, you seem like a nice guy, but I have to call you out on this setup.
@@DownTheRabbit-Hole I’m using 10 year old iPads in my demo that run IOS 9. All 3 cost me less than $100 CAD. You don’t need the latest and greatest iPads for this. Whether you use a PC or laptop is up to you - I haven’t had any of the thermal issues you describe.
Hi George. Thanks for the video. Very informative indeed. I'm new to all this. My question might be too obvious or too basic. Anyhow, here it comes... The MSFS pop out instrument panels do not include the knobs. My question is, do the knobs on the ipad app work? I want to be able to control the G1000 pfd+mfd independently. Hope this makes sense. Thanks in advance.
The knobs on the app work, however they are quite hard to turn when pressing the touchscreen. It's much easier to change them from within the plane.
Thanks for this. Picked up the bundle of apps on my iPad for $30 after downloading the free test app and confirming everything worked. This saved me from buying one of the physical pieces..for now!
Nice one George, cheers. I'm also looking into using my tablets like this, though I have a mixture of Apple and Android. As for the dual rotary knobs with centre push button function, how are you adjusting these? I know there's at least one company that advertises these (knobster) on their own (i.e. real, physical dial) and who's software connects to FS. You can also build your own using various breadboards, and here, you can easily extend to have many of these dials and various switches etc (of course, building them into a suitable housing). Alternatively, you can purchase external instrument panels e.g. Logitech.
I've mostly found myself adjusting the radios within the sim and then I use the iPad as a visual reminder to show which frequency I'm tuned into. I've experimented with a Arduino, Mobiflight and dual rotary knobs too, however I observed approx. 1 second lag between rotary turns and the iPad updating. I'm currently experimenting with an LCD connected to an Arduino and using that to display the frequencies instead which is lag free. I'll likely pull together a new video on that soon.
This software will not install on iPad less than ios 4 Ipad mini 1 and 2 only update to ios 2.01
Is it possible to do that on XBOX?
This only works for the PC edition.
Thanks, awesome tip!!
👌👌
This dumbass fails to mention all the apps cost $15+
If you're too dumb to figure that out on your own, and can't afford $15, I guess we all know who the real dumbass is...
Sensacional.
Remote flight only supports up to iOS 14 😢
No...
Just set up the cockpit guages on my ipad and it works a treat many thanks!!
Thanks for this George. I bought this software when I had FSX and had forgotten about it, assuming it would not work in MSFS 2020. However, the good news is that it is now compatible with the new sim, and I didn't have to buy it again! It looks brilliant on the retina screen of my ipad and works well with no lag. Many thanks for reminding me about this great software!
Awesome! Great to hear! 🙂
So how is the compatibility exactly? Asking because in the app store it shows the app itself has not been updated in 7 years...
This is an amazing explanation of how to really enhance my FS setup easily and on the cheap! Thank you!
What if I have a MS Surface Pro 3?
hi Giorgio, is there the possibility of putting the various instruments on another monitor of the PC?, I have 3 connected with the Asus RTX 3060 card thanks for the reply..... if yes, can you tell me how to do it?
Is there a way to do this with the Xbox x please?
Thanks but also, can you switch the Cessna instruments with something like a320 instruments
Thank you for this video!!!!!! Very easy to install and set up. Works perfectly. Guys you need to do this!!!! AWESOME 💯👍🏽👍🏽
Thanks! Glad the video was helpful! :-)
Thanks sir ,do you have to connect WiFi direct on the iPad in order to function?
Yes, the iPads and PC need to be on the same wireless network for it to work.
Do you need the PC software for the iPad screen things to work. Cause I play on Xbox but want this
It only works on the PC
I wonder does this work with Xbox MSFS
This is for the PC only
but why fly 3rd person?
It provides a blend between a real life and arcade experience
Thanks for the video, George. I'm going to give it a try. When I fly the Caribou or the Beechcraft Model 18, it is pretty hard to take my view down to the instruments so this could really solve the issue.
Have fun!
Aye!
How do you connest all these Ipad to the laptop ? Thankyou
The iPads should be on the same network subnet (eg. 192.168.1.XX) as your PC. In my case, my iPads were connecting over wireless to my home router and my PC was cabled into my router. For most home routers, the IP addresses will be auto assigned to each device and the only network configuration you may need to do on your PC would be to create some firewall rules to allow inbound access to the server port.
How far is this from Calgary or Airdrie please?
Mahogany is south Calgary. I'd estimate a 30-35 minute drive to Airdrie via Stoney Trail.
Can you use ipad 1st generation for such displays ?
I haven’t tested on that, however it did work for me on an original iPad mini using IOS 9.
N.A. urbanism literally looks like the backrooms
typical north american car dependant cookie-cutter suburban sprawl lmao you can find like 500 instances of this exact neighbourhood layout throughout the continent with 0 changes. walking here is super unpleasant, not even a tree in sight. with un-necessarily wide roads with tiny narrow sidewalks. people speed through these neighbourhoods all the time. this shit is wider than some highways in this city.
Thanks you just saved me a shed load of money!! And it works beautifully 👍🏼
Awesome! Great to hear! :-)
Excellent!
I Absolutely appreciate you posting this video. Thank you for sharing your FS passion with us!
Thanks! Great to hear the video was useful :-)
Can I use multi ipad for my c172 sim using airmanager? If yes how to do so?
I'm not sure about that, I've only tested the solution in the video.
Tx George, splendid advice. After viewing your video i went for the IpadMini 1 on dutch Marktplaats. Now proud owner of 3 of them ipads, for ca € 30 each, and the remote flight bundle installed. And after the vid of Mark Susak also on youtube I plan to build me a portable cockpit, incl 2 saitek panels (switch and ap). Tx very much ! grtz Jeff, The Netherlands
Thanks Jeff, great to hear my video was beneficial :-) Happy Flying!
Nice video of the drive!
RIGHT RUDDER!
Uhhh.... any reason why your AI is turning the opposite direction?
