Remote Control FSX from Ipad/Iphone

Featured Replies

Hi, I am considering buying fsx (I am an x-plane a really excited user)

 

However, I do not have a joystick and I dont have the space or cash to buy a good or even a decent one.

 

Therefore I was wondering whether you could control FSX using the ipad/iphone - i.e. an x-plane remote equivalent for fsx?

 

I heard about a couple of apps but I will like to voice my concerns:

 

FSXControl - Very laggy, bad design (+thrust/-thrust buttons - why not have a slider), and no AP control!

AirTrack - No flaps/gear/thrust control

 

These are the only two that seem remotely (pun intended) decent. Which one should I choose?

 

I am currently thinking of getting airtrack but I want to know if you can control thrust and gear and all that before shelling out £17 on it.

 

If you can help me - PLEASE reply!

 

Thanks!

Imran - Save your £17 add another £5 and you can get a decent enough joystick from PCWorld better than any iPad app.....I have an iPad..It's not worth the bother..Believe me - maybe in the future, but it's not there yet..My joystick cost me £30

 

Hope this helps
