The intent is to provide a G5 Attitude indicator + G5 Horizontal Situation Indicator stacked on the display in vertical mode. The pyG5 connects to X-Plane flight simulator. It does not require any plugin and use the standard DREF UDP interface from X-Plane. It should not require any configuration. Start it and it will connect to X-Plane and fetch the required data. This is currently developed on macOS with python 3.9 and testing on a Raspberry Pi 4 with Raspberry Pi OS and an official 7 inches display in vertical mode. Below is a view of the user interface. And you can see it in its simulation environment Second Display It's also possible to run pyG5 with a secondary window. In my sim setup this contains all the missing items to fly a C172 without display. In thery you could do a complete IFR flight switcing of displays right after take-off down to minimums. The secondary window contains: - Transpoder control and status, works with a touch screen to input code - Fuel selector status - Carb heat and Fuel pump status - Advisory Panel - Flap indicator - Trim indicator The view: With the XPDR expanded: Maturity It's currently in pretty early phase. It's functional and should be easy to install but might suffer from issues here and there. Not all the features of the G5 are implemented. It's currently missing: Glide scope lateral guidance on the AI Distance to ne","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/blauret","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/blauret/pyG5/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
