Beta testers needed. Control your sim from your tablet!

**Ben@TouchPilot** · 04-13-2012, 06:52 PM

Hello fellow sim pilots. I'd like to announce that my brand new company, Touch Pilot, is looking for beta testers for our new tablet app. The app allows you to adjust your throttle, mixture, prop, landing gear, flaps, and more with just a tap. Now you don't have to remember all those keyboard commands. It works with any simulator or game running on a Windows PC. It especially works with FSX. It works by emulating a joystick on your PC, and transmits your inputs over WiFi. You map the controls just like you would on a regular joystick. There's a server component that you run on your PC, and of course the tablet app that runs on an iPad or Android tablet. You can sign up for the beta by visiting the link below. Looking forward to hearing your feedback!

Shouldn't these be in the commercial developer's screenshot forum like I had to oblige by so much?

hmm, perhaps you're right. this thread isn't just about screenshots, so i initially didn't think it belonged there. however, upon closer inspection, i see that the screenshot forum is not just about screenshots, it's for all commercial software. the name "screen shots" is a bit confusing. hopefully an admin will move this thread there.

Wha???? Screenshot forum is for our personal enjoyment of flightsim software. I fail to see the miss understanding of any of that title.....

I think he was referencing the Commercial Developer Screen Shot forum.

any opinions on the new background?

I really do like your concept. I wish I had a tablet, I'd be a beta tester for sure --- I'm always looking for ways to make my sim more interactive, and that does seem really cool. Best of luck to you.
