Hey, thanks for the tutorial. Came at just the right time. I've been waffling on the next sim upgrade. Air Manage+knobster -vs- new joy stick -vs- 737-200. AM+knob!!! Can't wait. Thanks

Good stuff! Thank you for taking the time to explain. I just bought the 750 and 650 RealityXP files. I'm a CFII trying to recreate a panel in our trainer fleet with G5's and a 750.

Very possible and the GTNs use Garmin Trainer do very high fidelity. Keep me posted. Interesting project.

Hi Russ. Thank you for these videos. Appreciated. When making the modifications to the panel on the touch screen do you use two screens or a single screen? If a single screen how do you "chop and change"? Thank you

Thanks for yet another good video. I’m about to buy a setup of 3 screens for scenario and one touch screen for AM with two PCs, based on your earlier recommendations. In this video, though and from some of your answers below, I have the impression you have updated your PC to an i7 with better graphic card (1070Ti). Can you confirm that you are running all of of it on that PC or do you still have a slave PC for the scenery? Any tips (refresh rate, input lag time) about the monitors or any 50-55’’ full HD (1080p) TV will do?

Thanks Russ, Very informative.....good timing as I just installed the knobster. Who can I talk to about making a PFD available from GRT Avionics so we can build and fly a panel like some put in their experimental aircraft? 👍

I am a subscriber to your channel, and really enjoy your educational videos, including this one! I am a long time user of FSX along with the Carenado Seneca V aircraft, Flight1 Aspen EFD1000, and Reality XP GNS530 V2 add-ons. Together, these do a really nice job of emulating our actual Seneca setup. After watching your various videos, including this one and the one on multiple monitors, I am in the process of upgrading my flight sim computer to WIndows 10, and implementing X-Plane 11 along with Air Manager. My plan is to build an Air Manager panel that includes an Aspen PFD, the Reality XP GNS530 v2, along with the GNS530 bezel, and run it on a separate laptop with a touch-screen monitor. I have two related questions. First, will the approach that you outline in this video also work with the RealityXP GNS530 V2, or only the X-Plane 11 GNS530? I believe the RealityXP unit does a better job of emulating the actual GNS530W including LPV approaches, and would prefer to use it. And second, if I run Air Manager on my laptop including the GPS unit, should the laptop be setup as the main computer, and then my tower as the secondary / visuals? My yoke, throttle quadrant, and rudder pedals are all currently connected to my tower computer. Sorry for the long message, but trying to connect all of the various dots from several of your videos.

Awesome Russ👌 thank you

Hi Russ, thank you very much for your video and for sharing all your experience with the topic of building advanced panels with AIRMANGER. My query is I have AirManager running on a second computer, not on the main computer where Xplane is running. Is it possible to implement this functionality to put the GPS in the panel that is running on the second computer where I have the touch monitor where AirManager is running? Thank you very much for your help.

Hi Russ ,thanks for making all these educational videos.I have a question that I am not sure if related to this video but I would like to run a separate computer to run air manager on a 22 inch screen and was wondering how it would connect to my other computer either wirelessly or possibly ethernet not sure all the connections or if it would work was wondering what your opinion was on this thanks for any help

Hi Russ, I really enjoy your videos! BTW, what’s the name of your inflight map program you have on your iPad. I believe you mentioned in a video that it was free?

Hi Russ I have the Cessna 172 REP ,AND IT IS SET UP FOR THE OLD beat up,rental version which makes the tachometer vibrate a little bit like in a real rental . This does not however transfer to the tachometer in airmanager. Thanks again for any info and for all you do on your channel

Mr. Barlow, Will you be considering doing this for MSFS 2020?

Thanks for the great videos!! I'm using the G1000 overlay on a second touch screen. Every time I use on the of the switches or knobs the screen I pull down from MSFS as a insert, the overlay disappears. Is there anyway to lock that so it will stay when I'm using the overlay (G1000)?

Hi Russ, I followed you suggestion of re-sizing the Air Manager window to make room for a GTN 750 window on the right side of the monitor... which works great because it’s a touch screen... thx for that! Do you have a jet panel suitable for a Citation Bravo?... I have tried looked through the Air Manager free and premium panels but have not been able to find one... thx again! Joey (long time lapsed commercial pilot, now having fun again flying in the sim)

I know this is an older video, but I'm curious if AirManager plans to support the G3000, particularly the touchpanel (like in the TBM930) for MSFS2020. Unfortunately, MSFS pop-out panels don't interact well with touchscreens as of update 8.

Awesome stuff!

Hi Russ. What ever happened to the overhead 737-800 panel you design about a year ago and when can we expect to see it in Air Manager?

Hello Russ ... found your channel after purchasing Airmanager and trying to use the Pop Out Laminar displays ( G530, 430 G1000 etc ) in Cut-Out Panels. I followed your video above and I am not sure how you created these panels and having a cutout with click-through areas. would it be possible to do a video with more explanation and step by step example?

Russ Barlow, probably a dumb question, but how do I make the knobster interact with the dials on the gtn 750? Thanks!

Hi Russ, I know you now have had a chance to play with touch monitors for a while now.

Hi Russ, as always, great detailed vids! I’m a private pilot and have a sim in my home. I run FSX (boxed) with Saitek controls. I really want to build a nice panel to insert my Saitek gear (Yoke, TPM Throttle controls, Radio Panel, Switch Panel and Auto Pilot Panel), and would also like to incorporate a touchscreen (iPad Air 2) for a G1000, and an iPad Mini (separately) for the Garmin GTN750. I also use an iPad Mini on the yoke with ForeFlight linked to FSX. But I’m struggling with how to accomplish running the G1000 and the GTN750 on separate iPads. I’m also considering including the Knobster as well. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the great work! Ray

I'm not an FSX expert but you cant really do what you want with iPads except by using some programs that allow you to use your iPad as an external USB monitor. This is because the GTN window or G1000 window needs to be an undocked window for the simulator. Does that make sense?

If I already own the GTN-750 (I've been flying it in the SLO-TATION and have had great success with it)... is there a way to use it with air-manager without any other purchases, or are there GTN pieces/add-ons required ? be nice not to buy things twice as that GTN-750 wasn't cheap.

Hi Russ, as I mentioned I have 2 touch screens for Air manager, My intention is to put the Garmin and other comm & nav in a stack on the second monitor. trying to gain as much knowledge as I can as I start to put this together at 71 not the sharpest knife in the drawer when it comes to technology

@rbarlow

I liked the smaller monitors to use as part of a panel with some physical buttons and switches (and maybe an autopilot control ) too so you only need to display a limited number of instruments on the monitors and they can be larger more life sized. see my video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pWRqvI-EY5fLops.htmlsi=1g4l2Ia9qmDTcIyv If you plan to use the monitor(s) as most of the controls than a 23-34 inch touchscreen is a good size so the instruments are bigger and easier to manipulate with the finger. As for the Knobster I'd go with a single mounted between the monitors where it can be easily reached. One Knobster can support as many panels as are running on the computer the Air Manager instance that the knobster is connected to. The only exception might be if you have an overhead panel it is awkward to haave to look and reach down so mounting a second Knobster up there makes sense. Good luck.

Hi Russ. Thanks for that great tutorial, it's exactly what I was trying to figure out! Since you have already done all the hard work to created the GPS Backdrop image for the 172SP, could you possibly make it available as one of the online instruments in Air Manager? That would be a huge help to me and to those of us not yet proficient in this area! Cheers Bob

Thanks.....Tom

Thanks so much. I know my problem is simple but I just don't get it right. I have a Laminar Research B58 with a Reality GNS 530W. The GNS 530W window pops out just as your G1000 in the video and all the controls on the popped out GNS window work as well. However, with the Air Manager "on top", the air manager bezel controls are on top and they don't work, and of course neither does the knobster. There is no connection between the Air Manager GPS overlay instrument and the Reality XP GNS. Any help please?

Hi Russ, thank you for all your time and sharing ways to enjoy Reality XP and Air Manager, and the "Knobster" I have been trying to use both Reality XP and Air Manager to build a panel using your GNS 530 overlay along with Reality XP GNS 530 incorporated inside an Air Manager panel I have created, everything works, except the ability to use the touch screen and knobster for only the Reality XP, I have not since you only showed how to remove the bezel on the X Plane 11 530 the bezel for Reality XP, what files do I need to locate in order to remove the bezel for Reality XP GNS 530? Will this make the touch screen and knobster work once the bezel has been removed, I tried using Reality XP pop out on the Air Manager panel with an area that is transparent, and only the mouse can control the functions, previously I used the X Plane 11 530 pop out with your 530 overlay and everything works on Air Manager with knobster. What am I missing, or is the Reality XP GNS 530 unable to be incorporated with your GNS 530 X Plane 11 overlay?

Rod I don't have the RXP 530 but only the GTN750. It has an option in the setttings to pop out the window and also to hide the bezel. I would imagine the RXP530 might have that option but not sure. The manual shows a way to adjust the frame rect of the window to hide the bezel but it is a little complicated. If you are using the Air Manager 3.5 beta the overlay can have a transparent background and clicks on the RXP530 will not reach it so as long as the panel is set for always on top the RXP bezel will stay behind the Air Manager bezel. . RXP530 has custom commands for the controls so to use the overlay the datarefs would have to be changed or I believe there is a setting to have it use the standard XP11 GPS 530 commands. look at the manual at files.100megabyte.com/realityxp/manuals/Reality%20XP%20GNS%20V2%20User's%20Manual%20(XPlane).pdf.

I suspect you have not popped out the GTN to a separate window. There is a way to do that in the settings. Otherwise it can’t be dragged outside the X-Plane window. The bezel should come with it so since you can do everything by touch I didn’t make a bezel. Just frame the GTN with your Air Manager panel set it always on top and enable click through so your touches can get to the GTN. Cover the top title bar of the GTN window with part of your AM Panel to hide it as it is an immersion killer for me.If you need more help let me know

The MFD was still there and functional. I have (3) 49" monitors for the cockpit view and a 20" Samsung touchscreen for the instruments. Iv'e always configured the touchscreen in X-Plane as "not used." That way, I can drag the popups to it with nothing else is there but Air Manger. I've spent maybe 4 hours today trying to get it to work, but no success. At this point I can't even drag the pop up windows onto the touchscreen at all. With or without Air Manger running. They will drag off the edge of my last monitor but they are not showing up at all on the touchscreen. The mouse is there, but not the popups. I've tried different panels, rebooting, etc. Do you have any suggestions for fixing this?

C.E. Sherrod ... interesting problem. I assume you mean the X-Plane pop out G1000 windows are the problem and not the Air Manager Bezel? Sounds like a problem with your windows display setup or more likely a problem with XP setup. Recheck your display setup first. Then you may want to delete your XP settings files to reset everything. Deleting X-Plane’s preferences is an easy way to reset the simulator to its default settings after a setting has been changed that caused X-Plane to crash. It is also a good idea to delete the preferences after updating the simulator, due to the fact that the preferences files are continually changing. To delete X-Plane’s preferences: 1. Open the X-Plane 11 installation directory in My Computer, the Mac Finder, etc. 2. Go to the Output folder, then open the Preferences folder. 3. Delete the files within this folder (not the folder itself) to reset X-Plane’s preferences. It sounds to me like the windows coordinates in XP11 are messed up. Resetting the prefs is pretty radical but it seems like a possible solution for all your problems. Let me know how you do.

Sorry for the long delay to reply.Good news. Version 3.5 of air manager will be released any day now and it will have several layouts for the Cessna and the Baron pay panels that will have integration with the realityXP GTN 750

@@rbarlow Thanks Russ. I just downloaded 3.5 but don't see them (at least can't find them) with the 750 but will be looking. Let me know if they didn't get added after all.

@@rbarlow What about the Flight1 GTN 750? Will it also work with it?

Yes all on one PC with i7 4.2GHz and gtx1070ti. I really think Air Manager uses hardly any resources from the PC.

Hi Russ. Thanks very much for your channel. I think we flight sim builders are very lucky to have someone of your experience to help us. My question is can I run X-Plane 11, Air Manager and expect it to work with Duet Display (Map) on an Ipad. I thought I saw another one of your videos that showed you running air-manager on a 'stick'PC, and either you or someone else saying that if you run it all on the same PC there are issues with getting it to work with an iPad. Ideally, I would like to run it all from one PC. My plan is to have three 43"cheap TVs. a 24" Dell touch screen and an iPad for a map.

Air manager, it's really too expensive for a software , anyway I installed the demo version to try it, but I couldn't manage it to work on x- plane 11, why the setup should be so difficult , I wish someone come up with a video, how to make Air manager work on two separate computers as well same computer, the on x- plane 11.

Brian Sha I don’t know how involved you are in flight simulation but people routinely pay $20-30 for a single airport scenery package. Some addon airplanes, like the Flight Factor A320, are $100. Air Manager offers almost 500 free instruments to build panels, worlds with FSX,P3D, and XPlane, and runs on Windows, Linux, and MacOS. There is no sin in playing with the stock X-Plane scenery and airplanes with only a mouse and keyboard but for many of us we want more realism and diversity. The Air Manager setup is very simple but there are a few common mistakes that are made. First, you must install the software program and the plugin for XP. The Sim Innovations website has a support forum that has helped thousands figure out what they are missing and get things working. Sim Innovations also has a KZread channel covering basic setup of Air Manager. My video may have seemed a bit complex but is why it was entitled Advanced Panels for Air Manager.

Yes I know all abut the cost, I'm flying X-Plane since the earliest version and involved in all upgraded versions as they released, the money spending on aircraft, and airports is happening to me too, but when I tried Air manager once in past it came kind of not not working on my setup, yes I'm one of those plug and play lovers 😅 it's cool now I will give a shut and try it one more time. Thanks

XPlane??? ha ha MSFS 2020 is the stuff!!!

cutouts oh. well its free just drag that gps from xplane to other monitor. if that is air manager need. becouse paysoftware not acrually have working gps. i pass. just cutouts

and trottle,switch,trim wheels,can build real switch and potentiometer under display panel easy, lot better than all have display. and touchscreen display cost super expensive if uses, under plywood gauge panel have all gauges at display and you see at hole all gauges have lot cheapen and realistic, arduino you can buiuld all switch own panel real switch under gaugepanel, trim wheels you can build wood and paint and 2 potentiometer center console down, flaps can build plywood little panel were have switch or potentiometer can use flaps position easy. FSUIP spftware can controll ewery input what do. mobiflight software can add 7-segment displays radio panel, realistic, and all switch to arduino mega board, all leds,lights arduino board,encoders gauge adjust coder, arduino can build real radio to panel, 7-segment display,encoder knops,buttons, 7-segment dispaly max 2918 chip driver work best, old car seat can use seat in cocpit, and you have under 200.$ full lot better realistic cocpit than this.

were this software can download FREE, anybody NOT pay this ,why pay if can build own cocpit easy.

lot better cocpit have plane windows have own 3 display, NOT gauge panel, and gauge panel has build plywood under outside wiev display, and 2 display have inside plywood panel were have all gauges and diplay front hav thin plywood painted black and this have holes drilled ewery gauge, you can see gauges at holes.and add some tablet right side were have all navication instruments. this work lot better and realistic than this shit.

Hi Russ, thank you very much for your video and for sharing all your experience with the topic of building advanced panels with AIRMANGER. My query is I have AirManager running on a second computer, not on the main computer where Xplane is running. Is it possible to implement this functionality to put the GPS in the panel that is running on the second computer where I have the touch monitor where AirManager is running? Thank you very much for your help.

Marcos Jaimovich this can only be fine by running a second copy of XP11 on the computer alongside Air Manager and making it the master. Then run your current XP computer as the external visual. The only way to drag the popped out GPS display window to behind the AM panel is to be on the same computer. And only the Master XP copy updates the GPS display.
