Connection Issues

Tried everything recommended by Simionics and others to connect iPad to PC. All results in G1000 PC application saying “timed out, reconnecting”. Im sure the MFD is great when it works, but a $10 app should not be this finicky.

X-plane 과 호환은 잘됨

엑스플레인을 사용중이라 앱자체는 엑스플레인이랑 호환이 잘되어서 좋은데 FPL작성하다보면 자꾸 튕겨서 자꾸 리셋되어서 이부분좀 해결해주셨으면 좋겠습니다

FS2020 Nav Sync

Nave settings don’t sync with FS2020 G1000. I won’t buy the basil until this is fixed. I’m using two iPads and the program otherwise it works perfectly.

FAQ

What does the Simionic G1000 (MFD) app do?

This app simulates the Multi Function Display (MFD) functionalities of the Garmin G1000 avionics system, commonly found in aircraft like the Cessna 182T and Beechcraft Baron G58. It allows users to practice IFR training and familiarize themselves with the MFD's operations.

Does this app include PFD functionalities?

No, this app only emulates the G1000 MFD functionalities. To obtain PFD functionalities, you need to download a separate PFD app from the App Store, which can then cooperate with this MFD app via a Wi-Fi connection.

Is this app suitable for real-world flight navigation?

No, this app is strictly for practice purposes. The navigation database included may be outdated and differ from real-life data. It is not a substitute for certified flight training or real-world navigation equipment.

What are the system requirements for this app?

Due to its high memory consumption, it is highly recommended to install this app on an iPad with at least 1GB of RAM. Installation on iPad 1, iPad 2, or iPad mini is not recommended. For optimal performance, use an iPad Air or newer devices.

Can this app be used with flight simulation software?

Yes, when connected to the companion PFD simulator app via Wi-Fi, this app can work with flight simulators like FSX, Prepar3D, X-Plane, or Infinite Flight to provide a more complete G1000 experience.
