2.12.6

November 16, 2023

Release 2.12 brings a couple of new features. Instrument changes: I have added a VOR and HSI densensitisation option. This is to prevent the needle bouncing all over the place when you get near to and transit a station - which is true to a real instrument - but we can do better than that! This option defaults to ON and can be found in the VOR and HSI instrument options page. Map changes: I have added new weather overlays for cloud base, cloud coverage, visibility, sea level pressure, temperature and wind speed in addition to the existing precipitation layer. I have also added new icons that you can choose from such as airliner, military, transport, helicopter and Spitfire :-) You can also manually choose what colour you want your icon and history track to be.

Description of fDeck

fDeck is an aircraft flight deck in your pocket that provides real-world functionality to a suite of full-featured, graphically beautiful flight instruments for your mobile device. It allows you to virtually tune any radio aid from a worldwide aviation database, or create your own 'virtual' radio aids whever you want to practice radio navigation. Use the app as a training aid, or use it as a set of complimentary flight instruments when flying. In addition to the beautiful flight deck instruments, fDeck also has a built-in aviation moving map that shows your location as well as relevant airspace, airport and weather and navigation data. You can move your location on the map to reposition your virtual aircraft and the flight instruments will reflect this new location. This allows you to use fDeck as a radio navigation trainer - you can see in real-time what the VOR, HSI or NDB will look like at your new location! The following instruments are currently available in the app: • Horizontal Situation Indicator (HSI) • VHF Omnidirectional Range Receiver (VOR) • Automatic Direction Finder (ADF) • Artificial Horizon • Groundspeed Indicator • Vertical Speed Indicator (VSI) • Aircraft Compass, with functioning heading bug • Altimeter - with functioning barometric pressure adjustments • Chronometer with fuel totaliser • Flight Planner • Weather and Wind - display live weather and wind information including live TAF & METAR reports If you use the X-Plane flight simulator you can even drive the flight instruments straight from X-Plane! Key features: • Instruments are proudly graphically accurate with ultra smooth animations • Grid and Swipe user interface modes • Go full-screen to focus on a single instrument, or use multiple of the same type • Tune each instrument slot to a different radio station • Simulate flight by panning your location on the map - use the app as a radio aids trainer! • Worldwide aviation database containing over 20k airports and radio navigation aids, updated monthly • Fully searchable navigation database, filterable by type • Map view with aviation overlays showing location and tuned radio stations • Each instrument has an associated video tutorial • Add your own navaids - want to practice VOR radial tracking on your house - now you can! • Supports tablets and phones and both portrait and landscape orientations This app has taken years of work by the developer, who provides it free for your use. The app does have in-app ads. By joining the fDeck Premium Lounge via an in-app subscription or one-time purchase you can remove all in-app ads, remove the 5 user station limitation, get monthly navigation database updates, display map weather overlays, live virtual weather radar, live TAF & METAR reports and obtain unlimited access to the X-Plane connector.

  • Brilliant product

    I have this installed on my iPad and I use it in my AION EVTOL, The depth of this program is incredible

    Developer Response

    Thank you so much for the review! Your EVTOL design is incredible and I ams so happy that you have chosen fDeck as its flight instrumentation :-) Let me know if you need anything improved. Regards, Darren.
  • Really cool app

    I have been searching for this app for a long time. There used to be similar ones but they disappeared. Thanks to the author. Keep up the good work.

    Developer Response

    Thanks Mike, appreciated, and I am happy that you found my app. All the best, Darren.
  • Truly excellent

    Beautiful app, clearly with a great deal of care and attention in its development. Great for simming but I’m also using it in real life as a heading bug tool on an aircraft that doesn’t have one fitted. £30 seems a reasonable price for a lifetime unlock and the dev is very responsive to feature suggestions.
