  • On Monday 30th October 2023, PMDG will be releasing the Universal Flight Tablet for their 737NG Series for Microsoft Flight Simulator, and this video serves as a tutorial to show you how to use numerous features within it which are included in the Release Day version.
    PMDG have already stated that in the future, additional features will be added but this will focus on the EFB "app" as well as the Performance "app" within the UFT upon release.
    We'll navigate through adding Simbrief and Navigraph Accounts, as well as discussing various mapping features and I'll show you how to load your route into the FMS via the UFT too! Towards the end, we'll work our way through the three Performance Calculators included too so there's a lot to cram in!
    Here's a REALLY useful link which will take you to the PMDG Forums... where the UFT Manual lives - forum.pmdg.com/forum/main-for...

    👋 a few reminder points from our preview livestream the other day:
    1. It's only releasing via PMDG Operations Centre NOT via Marketplace yet
    2. It isn't immediately available for Xbox because of the above
    3. It won't be added to the DC-6 as it stands currently
    4. It'll be included in the 777 on release in the near future

      @@frap9965 oh door control yeah.....I sort of figured it would at least have what every other EFB offers on release. I mean I get it - for it to be available on XBOX they had to jump through hoops until the SDK was finally made to work and I get that. But, payload and fuel, doors, ground equipment along with charts and perf calc are sort of the basics. It's nice for what it is, but yeah.

    Glad to see the tool being *finally* released, though I'm a bit disappointed that it doesn't feature any UI for ground handling. Its omission is not a huge issue per se, but considering most other EFBs handle it no problem, and this one took a laughably long time to be released, it's a bit comical that it's something that may come as a later update.

      @QazmeHabu 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Ground handling would have been nice - but for me anyways, I use GSX - so hoping GSX does an app for this! The glaring omission to me is the fuel and payload loading. You still gotta do that through the EFB, which isn't a huge issue, but would have been nice and probably my only "complaint" atm.

    • @BritishAvgeek
      @BritishAvgeek  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I always use GSX so don't need it in a tablet though they said they'll be adding a lot of the FMS features into the tablet - hopefully it'll come in future as one of those features

    • @viktorekman863
      @viktorekman863 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I mean i do understand using RTE files. But still, PMDG being a study level addon, i think it's more genuine to insert the flight manually. However i only stopped using RTE files because i hated the fact that you had to load it into the files and then you restart the flight. It super sucks imo.

    I had issues getting Simbrief connected, it took 10 mins of trial and error for it to finally connect so I'm wondering did anyone else have an issue connecting to their Simbrief profile?

  • @markscars1069
    @markscars1069 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    So the plane may be study level but the EFB certainly isn’t. No OFP fuel readout load from Simbrief, to my mind, is very poor. Given the lead time, I was expecting this to do EVERYTHING.

    Thank you for the great review as always.
    It's just disappointing seeing the end result after all this time in development. The interface is really basic and outdated, just looks ugly in my opinion, and the functionality is lacking. The promise of future apps doesn't really overcome the fact that this is very underperforming at launch after all the hype it had.
    I still love the aircraft and will continue to fly it but I really hope the 777 launches with a much better EFB/UFT.

      The Fenix EFB isn't even an EFB really. It has the functions of an EFB but it's a much wider scope than that, there's an EFB within the UFT which is why they've been specific about it being a UFT instead.

Just flights tablet which is one Xbox for their warrior, archer, and bae 146 is far far better than this in every way.

      @@sean1388 That's from an addon that was enabled by the same thing that enables the tablet, and thats in the GPS which WT built into the engine.....not an efb. So yeah...and any EFB currently in the sim does ZERO communication outside the sim. PMDG will be the only one that can do that on XBOX. I never said the PMDG is almighty - but people acting like all the other EFBs/tablet can or do offer what PMDG claims there is, isn't paying attention.
      As a side note - georeferencing isn't outside communication - that's literally just coordinates system which is inside the sim as well, it's how waypoints work... From streams today it looks like plane #2 that will be Xbox ready WITH OUTSIDE communication from the sim will be the FSR500 which has navigraph in it's tablet and will release this week and in a couple of weeks with v1.1 to Xbox users!
