Yep. This one has been around for a while as a connector between FSX or P3D or X-Plane and several different moving map programs, including Foreflight. Recently updated to also connect to MSFS. I’ve been testing it in the beta and it works well.

Does anyone know if there is a setting in MSFS that you can tick to enable communication with Foreflight on an Ipad (like in P3d)?

Nothing built into MSFS yet. At the moment you have to use a connector program as mentioned above.

It works amazingly well, but as with any simconnect programs, it makes the sim unusable because of stutters. It's not XMapsy's fault, and we'll have to wait for a fix in the sim.

Thanks, I guess I’ll wait for the August 27th MSFS update patch. Apparently, some known simconnect issues will be resolved.

The patch isn't out on that date, that is the date they are going to announce when the patch is available.

No, the MSFS team has announced that they will release the patch on the same day as the August 27th update. The following post has further information https://fselite.net/news/msfs-august-20-first-post-release-development-update/

It clearly states on the blog update:-

The team is currently working hard to provide a patch update to address issues that have been recently reported. Expect a release date for the patch in our August 27th update.

And it clearly states in the FSElite article, “The team then announced they would release their first patch on the same day as the August 27th update.” More than likely the FSElite reporter misunderstood the blog post.

So, who do you believe? FsElite, or the main developers themselves? 

I’ve already answered your question in the last sentence. But who knows, maybe FSElite has insider info 🙂

Well let's hope so, could do with a patch sooner rather than later.
