January 3, 201115 yr Hi, I posted this on the FSX forum but thought I should also put it here so maybe JD can suggest a solution to my quest. I am interested in using voice recognition to work the ATC portion of the sim experience.My current setup is as follows:Main PC running FSX onlyLaptop running RC4 over WideFS (The laptop is also running Plan-G over WideFS and ASE over SimConnect, but they are not the subject of this post)Windows 7 on both machinesI fly with the main speakers producing the engine noise and I wear headphones connected to the laptop for ATC.Even though RC4 is on the laptop, I still hit the keyboard numbers to control RC4. This works quite well for me because unloading the software from the main PC allows zero stutter and a rock-solid 30 FPS pretty much anywhere.So, my headset has a boom microphone and I want to use its mic to control RC4. I am not interested in any other uses for voice recognition like setting my radio frequency and the like. I like doing that manually since my arms still function.Since RC4 is remote, I don't think the keyboard will be controlled by my voice. Can anyone confirm this and possibly suggest a solution? I have a copy of Shoot and VoiceBuddy, but I also don't mind investing in something like IYP or some other software if it will work. What do you think?Thanks in advance,Dolph

January 4, 201115 yr Author there is a pinned topic about "its your plane" - that would be good choicejdYes sir, I agree it would be a good choice. I have no doubt that the program would do the trick if it was running on the FSX computer, but it will instead be running on the laptop over Wireless LAN. As I stated, it needs to run from the laptop via WideFS since my headset is interfaced to the laptop (which runs RC4, ASE and Plan-G). The question still stands: Will IYP control RC4 remotely?
January 7, 201115 yr " Will IYP control RC4 remotely?"Yes, it will. It's using FSUIPC (registered version, be sure to have the latest ).Please read "Installing It's Your Plane Across a Network Using WideFS" on the IYP website.agutz Regards, Andreas Gutzwiller
