Needs updating

There is no altitude control when running app on a Mac which renders the simulator useless.

Nice idea, won’t climb

I have tried to get this trainer to track the autopilot and fly an altitude. You can have it fly a heading and altitude but you can’t have it track the flight plan and set an altitude. Instructions says to set altitude to cross a waypoint, tried it.. just flys at 20 feet and tells you to pull up and it still won’t track the FMS. Good for practicing frequency changes.

A disappointment

Where is the PC version?

Heading up not working on IFD 440

Heading up not working on map display. Always shows north up. Please fix.

Needs documentation

You can play with all the controls but there’s little to help how to set up common things like approaches. Also not obvious how to set a start point, altitude, etc. Speed is the only obvious setting.

Great Simulator

I’m flying with a friend who has Avidyne equipment in his Mooney and Lake Amphibian. This is very helpful.

Version10.3 IFD 540 trainer

Does not have CHARTS tab on MAPS page In navigation mode the course slider is covered up by the iPad bar and is not usable.

Can’t control simulator altitude. Demo this terrain. No documentation for app use.

The demo app, is stuck at Zero altitude, so of course it won’t work. Documentation is lousy.

Hardly works and only on good days

Gets stuck crashes inputs are difficult especially for the knobs, in short I hope the devices themselves are better.

Not too great

There are a number of items that simply do not work. For example, the tutorials don’t address the IFD unit you might be trying to learn. The Flight Plan tutorial only addresses the IFD 540 when you are trying to learn the IFD 440, and the two are not even similar.
