  1. I bought FSradiopanel, which in fact provides not only a radio panel, but also a basic PFD (primary digital instruments), moving map, gear and flaps panel, autopilot and more. I use it with 3 Android phones and 1 tablet and it's a great addition to the 4K primary and FullHD secondary screens! But I was wondering if there's a way to see a complete Garmin G1000 PFD on the tablet and Spacedesk seems to be worth trying. As for touch screen, it's great for buttons, good for handles, but so far quite a disasters for knobs (turning them). Sliding is supported with FSradiopanel, but it's a fight. So much that I'm thinking of purchasing some HW, i.e. HW autopilot panel. Downside of Spacedesk, I expect, would be that the extra screen is still processed by the PC, specifically the image by the GPU. Having a 4K+FullHD on i7 notebook is already a bit of stretch, one extra monitor might be too much. With native Android apps like FSradiopanel, the external device gets only data (altitude, speed, flaps settings, etc.) and it creates itself an image of the panel(s). The performance impact is unrecognizable, I'd say.
  2. No, in Roman numbers, XX is not read as 1010, but as "20" and that is spot on, since the game will be most likely released in 2020. Well, if we don't consider the reality, that most of SW developers name their products according to the next year, not current (stupid marketing action). It didn't get to my mind until the point that it's a good name for the game, but it is really not bad, makes a lot of sense.
  3. @Larry: I know that, that's fine. I'm looking for answers WHAT is actually included and what not to expect. It's difficult to say, whether a feature is missing or I'm unable to operate it...
  4. Křepelka's page (like all the other on his web) are the exact copy of the Learning Centre pages. In fact that is what I read, as it's way more convenient to read from a web site, than from the dumb tiny FSX window. The second link looks like a great stuff to extend G1000. Thank you very much for both links! I'm still hungry to hear about other G1000 questions, if anyone knows the answer or can me point somewhere
  5. Hello fsx comunity, I've read the Learning centre lesson and searched online for posts and watched YouTube videos, but the info on G1000 is between broken and basic. So I have some questions... Is it possible to make a Flight Plan in G1000? There are a lot of tutorials mentioning "Direct to" function, but can you insert MORE WAYPOINTS? I found no info on that, if/how it is im/possible. Also, I see only approach procedures in the Procedures, all the rest are greyed out. One YouTube stated that "it's greyed out right now, but you can use it if you wish". However from my experience, I'd say there are only (some) approaches and nothing else. I checked some and they seem to conform to the real wold ones. So am I doing something wrong or is that it (just approaches)? Are there any community extensions to the G1000? I will not buy any commercial extensions now, when FS2020 is coming soon... Finally, is there any way to allow mapping of some rotating knobs or other G1000 to joystick? I.e. large ring (moving in list) to Saitec's flight system endless little wheel, small wheel to the nearby up-down knob. I'm not afraid of CFG, XML or else, if it takes to accomplish some tasks.
