Leave a Review iControl DCS
An Essential Component!
While the app sure needs a few tweaks here and there, it definitely provides the best interface for the MFDs and other components as well.
While I understand some of the review claiming that it is only usable in a multi-monitor setup, this isn't completely true. You CAN use the app in a single monitor setup but you will have to sacrifice places for the MFDs from your screen. You can resize them and make them smaller but you will sacrifice the quality of the screen on your iPad.
Using a second monitor surly provide a better experience since you can place all three exports (2 MFDs and CDU) on your second monitor and resize them to be bigger for better picture quality on your iPad screen, and leave your main screen for the beautiful cockpit view.
So far, I used the app for a couple of flights including cold starts and aside from some small instances where I had to use my mouse for input (such as powering on the ILS) things were great.
I definitely recommend this app for those looking to improving their Sim experience.
Sure, the price tag is high and if you are worried you might try the free versions first before you decide on paying.Show lessHard To Set Up But Finally Worth It.
I had a hard time getting this app to work. After I totally gave up, I sent an email to the app developer without expecting a reply, but I was surprised when he replied to me immediately and started helping me with the thing: A true rarity in an app developer these days. He deserves 4 stars for this, if for nothing else. He helped me step-by-step via offering suggestions and tech support, till finally we got it to work the way it should...........................It had something to do with my PC resolution. So for all those having problems, try tweaking around with your resolution in DCS options menu as that might help. Full screen mode have to be NOT checked..........................UPDATE: It works well with track IR (but you gotta know how to set up the TrackIR properly). After I leant how to set up both really good..............I am now living in the skies. I really love this thing. You can't know what you are missing till you use it in-game.Show lessCan't get it to run
Spent 3 hrs trying to get this app to run without success, checked forums, contacted support and tried trouble shooting the heck out this thing. I had a lot of hope, but just about to give up when it asked me to rate it!
