X-Plane Connecting

[Administrator]

Does anybody has an issue where the launcher starts X-Plane but it's showing "Waiting" on the launcher window?

PK, think I found my issue.; and it wasn't the newer version of the launcher. In X-Plane, under Network, there is an option to allow/disable incoming traffic. Mine was set to 'disable'. Once I enabled that the launcher showed connected, and the gauges came to life. That said, everything seemed to function perfectly in the Cessna 172 model. However, in one of my non-Laminar planes (Piper Cherokee), the gauges seem to work fine (all except the turn coordinator) and none of the knobs have any effect. I'm guessing there is some configuration file that can be copied over to those planes?

Great! Thank you for the update.

For the third party planes, it might be easier to map it with something like Mobiflight

Just glad it works, but I have no idea what Mobiflight is

It's a very great tool. Please see a quick intro here
