Simionic G1000 (PFD)

まずPFDについて、表題の環境で動いてます。さすがにメモリ512MBのipad2では無理のようで、落ちます。 フライトプランを作りたくなったので別でMFDアプリも買いました。PC起動してなくてもスタンドアローンで動作するのが良いですね。 アップデートにも期待します。

It should not be hard to make both to open in same screen!

Sim ionic has yet to publish a plug-in for x-plane Linux. Thus, this will not work with xplane if you are running it in Linux. I feel that should be clearly indicated on the App Store, so you can tell it won’t work before you spend $10.

Great app! However, it seems to always crash when approaching an inner marker with Marker audio enabled (found on KPDX Rwy 10R ILS).

Graphics are great, but the knobs are extremely frustrating to turn. Trying to choose whether you’re on the inner or outer knob is a real pain. I wish they’d take a page from Garmin and set up their Sim knobs the way Garmin did. Also, THERE IS NO CENTER AUDIO PANEL ON THE PFD OR MFD VERSION. I tried to follow along with a King School video while using this, and it was almost impossible. Save your money and skip these Sims…..

Great app. Wish they could’ve had more functionality by adding a steam gauge or round dial option

Missing VNAV functionality, unable to declare altitudes for arrivals. VNV button non-functional for approaches. However, once you’ve manually reduced altitude to the faf using charts, it does capture the glide slope on the final approach leg. If this worked, it would be a usable substitute for the simulator’s G1000, but as is I had to scrap it and go with a second monitor instead. Update: I fly a real G1000 equipped trainer when able, but look to the sim for supplemental time. I’ll post a side by side video when I have time to clarify. But in short, yes your software can load an approach but it appears that I cannot modify the vertical profile. Unable to rotate the FMS outer knob to even select the altitude fields. Also missing is the ability to arm VNAV. In the real G1000 when you press the VNV button, you will see VNAV appear in gray until active where it turns green. In the Simionic app, I press VNV button and nothing happens. It appears that this app is limited to GS arm for final approach, but no VNAV arm for arrival and initial approach portions of the flight plan. Also, for what it is worth, this functionality does exist in the Laminar G1000 emulation included with X-Plane 12.

This iPad app is a remarkable implementation of the G1000 functionality. I’m using it with X-Plane and as a standalone trainer. Since I’m flying a lot in European Airspace, the fact that this app only supports altimeter settings in IN and not in hPA is annoying. The developer had the idea to support that functionality since it is in the settings, but the app ignores the setting. It also does not matter if you have an X-Plane aircraft showing QHN in hPA; It does not cause this iPad app to switch. The app also supports custom profiles as in-app purchases, but the settings UI has a defect, so you can only select the bottom four profiles since the settings screen does not scroll up. Like I said in the beginning, overall a great app, but I wish Simionic would pay more attention to smaller bugs, since those add up and weigh on the overall perception of a quality product.

I’ve submitted an email asking support about this problem. The airspeed, attitude, and altitude work however the cdi is way off and at times won’t show dme from a navaid even though it is shown on the actual flight sim. Is there any way to fix this? I was thinking about buying the bezel but won’t if this problem persists because I am working on my intstrument rating and this won’t be much help if the cdi and other navigational information doesn’t work on the app. Also the altitude bug lags a lot and the heading bug and cdi selection is regularly off by 1 or 2 degrees…

Almost everything works except for obs button, timer, loading a flight plan does not seem to be connected to Microsoft flight sim
