Forget the adapters, the wires, the confusion about which third-party product to buy – ForeFlight and the makers of the X-Plane flight simulator have put their considerable brain power together to enable seamless integration of the ForeFlight Mobile app on an iPad and the latest version of X-Plane 10 using nothing more than your home Wi-Fi connection.
The latest release of X-Plane 10 – version 10.10b9 – includes a configuration option right in X-Plane that enables it to transmit position and other data to the ForeFlight Mobile app. To make it work, enable ForeFlight Mobile integration under the Net Connections > Data menu in X-Plane. You can then enable it in ForeFlight Mobile by tapping on X-Plane in More > Devices and turning the switch to On.
