Android version



There are no bridges programmed on the Android version of Air Navigation Pro.
However, there is an Android App named "X-Plane to GPS" that can be acquired through the Play Store and it will allow users bridge Air Navigation Pro with the X-Plane simulator.

You just have to:

  • Search for "X-plane to GPS" app in the Play Store.
  • Download it.
  • Follow instructions to get GPS signal from X-Plane.
  • Run Air Navigation Pro.


Here's a link to the page of "X-Plane to GPS" App: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appropel.xplanegps


iOS version



In order to connect Air Navigation Pro to the X-Plane Flight Simulator, a special plugin must be installed in the «plugin» folder of X-Plane.

El plugin para Mac o Windows puede descargarse desde nuestro sitio al final de esta página:

http://airnavigation.aero/support

El plugin «Air Navigation_mac.xpl» o «Air Navigation_win.xpl» deben ser copiados en la carpeta «Resources/Plugins» dentro de la carpeta de X-Plane. Si el plugin fue instalado correctamente, se debería ver «Air Navigation» en el menú «Plugins» de X-Plane, que se encuentra en la barra superior al comenzar un vuelo.

Una vez que el plugin haya sido identificado en X-Plane, clickee en «Start Air Navigation bridge», en el menú «Plugins».

En computadoras Mac utilizamos la función "Bonjour" para encontrar X-Plane en la red.

En computadoras Windows, el servicio “Bonjour” es necesario para la detección automática de la dirección de red de X-Plane por el iPhone o iPad. Si usted ya tiene instalado iTunes no es necesario hacer nada, ya que Bonjour viene con iTunes automaticamente.

To manually download the Bonjour service for Windows, follow this address:

https://support.apple.com/kb/DL999?viewlocale=en_US&locale=es_LA

Download the installer and follow the on-screen instructions.

Once you have started the Air Navigation bridge on X-Plane:

  • make sure you have your iPad/iPhone and your PC connected to the same wifi network;
  • make sure to switch the X-Plane Sensors ON in the «Tools» menu.
