Just kidding - I am VFR only and would like to replace my 396 with the big bright screen of the the Nexus 7. All I really need is heading mode, but flight plan mode would be nice.
I have seen links on the web to doing this with Avare - just wondering if anyone here has it working that I could bounce ideas/questions off of.
Thanks!! |
Ok Pete, you've had most of 2016 to get this Nexus/autopilot/bluetooth thing figured out. What is the solution?
My refurb Nexus 7 is by my side....waiting for your reply so I can drive the Trio Pro Pilot with Avare down to minimums in icing conditions and charge the tablet at the same time. The solution has evaded me thus far....
Linear Mode
