  • Need Feedback about Thrustmaster

    Oh! Another suggestion IPACS Support :


    If I use my phone or tablet and use ITS gyro (I fly with the device in my hand) I would love to have another option how my view behaves:


    I don’t like it when turning my device, the whole world turns with it. It might be nice, if the horizon stays where it is and just my view turns with it. Hard to describe for me. Like the virtual head of the pilot is turning left, if I fly left, not the whole world. You know what I mean?

    It shouldn’t be that hard to implement. Something like using VR.

    Unfortunately it doen't work on iPad.
    I'm not sure about other brands, but I believe there is no available flying joysticks compatible with iOS.

    Oh no. That’s sad to hear. 😢 It would be an awesome feature if there would be a joystick specifically for mobile users. Kinda smaller for portability but much more precise than using a gamepad. I simply can’t butter a landing with my PS5 controller, cause the input is so massive if I slightly use the thumb sticks, that my flare results in a climb. The sensitivity settings somehow doesn’t change a thing here for me.


    Another thing would really be to implement the use of the gyroscope inside the PS5 controller. IPACS Support Is there ANY plan to implement this? So the Gamepad feels more like a yoke. I would love to see this. 🙏🙏🙏 Does the Controller even send this data to another device than a PS5? Could you please try to implement it?

    Hey, can anybody, at best iPacs itself, verify, if the Thrustmaster Stick in the link (it says PC) also works for Aerofly on macOS, iPadOS and iOS without any additional software?

  • Development Teasers

    Well, actually ground services have been thrown out of the “teaser game”, as Jan already said not yet due to the need of moving paths at all airports.


    Let me throw some things in here that might be still in play for me:


    - ambience sound at airports (kinda easy to do with a generic sound that suits all airports which would be way better than the total silence we have just yet)

    - jet bridges that really can be attached (very unlikely I guess, but hey, maybe a surprise)

    - integration of “global real time” with the correct sun and moon position as well as the correct moon phase for a specific calendar day (maybe not THAT difficult. Don’t know the coding requirements for this)

    - Integration of SimBrief and Navigraph (my absolute favorite and I hope it so much as AF is one of the only major sims that doesn’t have such an integration). But therefore some airports need to be updated with runways and SIDs and STARs as well, which makes it again unlikely for me while I’m typing this… 😭

    - more weather options like rain, thunderstorms or gusting winds or more precise settings for the actual winds like variable directions, maybe seasons?? (Just guessing around)

    - a possibility to actually doing a walk around (nobody mentioned this option here, right?)

    - multiplayer would be cool, but therefore airports have too less spawn and parking positions some places and it might require the integration of ATC or people would fly like crazy, and even with ATC they fly crazy (I’ve seen A LOT in IF as an IFATC…)

    - contrails and tire smoke would be a nice adding as well as the ability to see the heat air shimmering behind active engines (you know what I mean)

    Well, I’m getting out of ideas. Anything of these would be nice for me. Can’t wait 2,5h from now to the next teaser 🤞🤞

    Quote from ZK Aviation

    In regards to the fuel slider feature,

    Will fuel consumption be simulated as well?

    As they said: not yet. If you use time skip, it will simulate a consumption. But if you fly real time, there is no consumption yet. But take off at full load, at cruise reduce the load to something medium, and on descent set it to your landing weight. It’s better than nothing. Real consumption will be added for more and more aircraft over time, I guess. With every update a bit more planes as they are done with the calculations and implementation. My guess at least

  • Question about the Ingame purchase

    Hey guys,

    Today I tried FS 4 on my Mac and I was BLOWN away. It is so much better than mobile. It feels so much more realistic and the graphics are amazing! Very well crafted, IPACS!!!


    now, is it correct that I had to buy the airplane Set again? I bought it already in the mobile Version. I used the Same Apple ID. If Something went wrong, is there a Chance of a refund?


    Thanks guys

  • Development Teasers

    Oh yeah, Embrear would be a nice add on as well as an A220! 🤩


    But I also hope, one of the remaining teasers will be the integration of simBrief or even Navigraph as AF is kinda the only sim without it. I don’t know if it’s available on PC/Mac, but I really hope it’ll come for mobile as well.
