Good for my flight sims
I really appreciate the updates!
Used to work. No support.
Have had this for a bit. Was going to upgrade to paid version. No longer works. And no longer can get support from creator other than a FAQ on the website with a link to a forum. So no help at all.
How do you play?
I got the app but I don't know how to play!
It need a help option.

Superb support
This is a fantastic way to start interfacing your A-10C with an external touch screen. It means more "head up" time, less messing around with mouse clicks, and ultimately a more immersive sim experience.
Installation and connection is easy. Some users however, may experience difficulty getting the setup right for their monitor layout; But persevering and finding lateral solutions is the key. For eg, if you have two monitors and use the right monitor as the main (as opposed to the required left monitor as main). Use windows apps like Ultramon and create monitor profiles, so that when its time to sim, switching screens around is one click away.
Besides the software itself, what really impressed me was the rapid tech support and customer service. Grade A and well above any tech support i have ever received for an app. These guys means business and want to get you enjoying the sim.
I highly recommend trying the free version, and then diving into the full price app when you know what you're doing. The full price app may seem a little steep compared to other apps, but when you consider what you might pay for a decent joystick or another interface device, its peanuts in the sim world. I look foward to further developments bit-shift!

Very very Complicated and Hard to Set up. But Finally Worked!
Ive done everything needed to get this app to work. No luck. I'm running DCS A10c. my IPAD has IOS 8, the server on the pc is running, and the app connects perfectly with my computer, but when I press a button in the app such as the steerpoint rocker button, nothing happens to the same button in the plane inside the computer. After many days I've finally gotten it to merely show me a picture of my computer screen. But that's all it does. Just a small plain picture of my PC screen displayed on my IPAD and nothing more. Buttons and cockpit dislay still don't work. I will never ever plunk down cash on this till if or when I see the free version working fine. No way ho say!......................
UPDATE:
I have reconsidered my above negative review after had I contacted the app developer and am receiving extremely superb and detailed technical support on this app as we speak. A true rarity in an app developer these days. He deserves 4 stars for this, if for nothing else. We are working step-by-step together via emails, to see what could be causing my problem, and I feel confident that we will solve the issue soon so I'll be able to install the full version without fear.........................UPDATE: Finally. It worked. But it took a lot of tweaking of my PC resolution. I can't determine wether or not it's due to full screen, or windowed mode. I seems to be running in both. ......................BTW: this update is for the full version, Icontroller.

Eh
I see no reason for the full version of this to cost $30
Terrible
Don't waste your time with this app.
DCS runs in window'd mod on the pc. It says it in the description.
The two LCD panels are on the left of the pilot's view window. The ipad app just streams a magnified picture.
The buttons work in real time but who pays a lot of money to tailor their PC to play DCS at high settings just to play in window'd mode.
Amateurs!

How to use mfcd
How do you use the Mfcd?
What they don't tell you
What they fail to tell you is that the PC app this connects to has to modify game files that disable full screen and mess with your MCDs. They make no mention of this fact and include no uninstall procedures for it. I read on some unrelated forums that they do make backups of these files but I could neither find these backups or what they actually modify to begin with. Prepare to reinstall your game to get this back to normal.

Promising but disappointing
Great idea! However you seem to have to have your MFCDs constantly overlaying on your screen for it to show up, or a 2nd monitor. If it was able to show MFCDs on the iPad without cluttering up the screen on my single monitor, I may have a hard think about purchasing the somewhat over-priced paid version of the app (though I do suspect it would still be too over priced for me to purchase it).

Great app, lower cost of full one!
A great app. Runs fast & smooth with no impact to system speed. PLEASE lower the price of the full version. $30 is too much, heck, it's nearly what the sim itself costs!
Crashes
Connects to server app for about 1 second, disconnects, then the iPad app crashes.
Works great!
This thing is neat! I was thinking about purchasing the MFD Cougar from thrust master but i think i'm going to just get the paid version for the extra features, the only suggestions i have are:
#1 The ability to modify the screen and lay it out however you want. LIke a drag and drop so each screen is customized.
#2 Option to have buttons on each screen to take you to other screens rather than 2 finger swipe.
#3 The ability to link the free version with the paid version, for example i own an iPad and so does everybody else in my house but they each have their own iTunes so they would have to buy the app if was to use their iPads as well randomly, if i could instal the free version on theirs and i have the paid version it would be great to link them so i can use the same screens from the paid version.
Either way it's a great app as it is and thank you for making a free version for testing it before spending the money!
