  • Not 100% working on fs2020

    Inputs to fms does not reflect in fs2020
  • Very Glitchy

    Hard to scroll with knobs. Behaves very strange. Will not track localizer only approaches. Very frustrating and negative learning as don’t know if this is the behavior of the sim or the G1000.
  • Did not work as expected

    Purchased and tried using it on a flight in X-Plane. GPS nav did not sync with the setting in the sim. Nav mode would not engage. Altitude capture did not work. In fact none of the autopilot buttons worked correctly with my aircraft (using the default X-Plane G1000). Some of the features worked well, but I didn’t feel like fiddling with it so I requested a refund. Some people may find it useful but it isn’t for me.

    The app isn’t designed to mirror the built-in G1000. It runs independently as well as the autopilot. Please find user manual for the real G1000 to get to know the details of how the autopilot and flight director work.
  • Professional simulation of G1000

    This is the best and most complete simulation of G1000 and works not only as a stand alone iPad app, but also in conjunction with MSFS 2020 and other simulators, which makes it perfect to practice. Be sure that all the details have been simulated correctly, so if you can do something on the real unit, you can practice and replicate it in this fantastic simulation. Great job! I am super happy with the fidelity that this simulation brings me to practice while at home, even during hotel layovers where I don’t have my flight simulator setup, just with an iPad I can still practice everything I need. I highly recommend this G1000 simulator.

  • No instructions/ guidance

    This app comes with nothing at all…god forbid you want to use it with a Mac
  • Excellent learning tool - with a couple major issues

    Great G1000 implementation and sim connectivity, but one flaw makes it borderline unusable in a sim - the fact that the hotspots of the dial buttons keep disappearing almost instantly (why not provide an option to display them at all times..??) leads to a *lot* of unnecessary try and error tapping just to reactivate them first, and then you have to be super quick before the disappear again. Using the FMS in particular is basically impossible just because of that. Also, would it be possible to sync the CDI type/source (GPS/VLOC) with the sim..? That would also be very helpful!
    Lastly, can the FPL be in sync with the sim in the future..?

    The purpose of making this app is to build a G1000 simulator which runs independently even coupled with desktop flight simulator. This is because the default G1000s in either in X-Plane or MSFS are not fully implemented. The processing logic of the default G1000 in those flight simulator is also more or less not in accordance with the real G1000. So, be coupled with the built-in G1000 in flight simulator has never been a purpose of making the apps from the very beginning. So only basic parameters like heading and altitude are synced with flight simulator. Things like autopilot and flight plans are G1000 specific which are not synced with flight simulator as synching those things may involve conflicts. Except for that, our apps can also work pretty well with aircrafts which don't have a G1000 implemented in flight simulators. I appreciate your understanding for this. For the knobs on the virtual bezel, you can slide instead of tapping. See if that works for you.
  • Brilliant version of the G1000

    I love this app, it works seamlessly with my FS2020 and turning on the bezel makes it look unbelievably realistic. I wish I could afford the actual bezels that they sell on their website but maybe one day. The PFD is great but the MFD could do with some more integration work into FS2020.
  • Awesome app and working well with msfs2020

    I don't usually write comments, but this simulator is awesome
  • Does not work

    The action freezes and locks in the wrong positioning. This would actually ruin your performance ability and cause you to become non-proficient. Absolutely a nightmare of a program
  • Nav data base out of date

    Please update the air nav data base to current, I use this to practice my local airport approaches and I can’t even fly them correctly due to the IAF’s being non existent in the FMS. Unless I missed a way to update it myself, this is now only good for getting familiar with g1000 PFD controls.
