Hey. Does Mobiflight support magnetoresistors? If so, how to connect them? Regards to you

Hi ls0077,
if magnetic resistors work like a potentiometer, i.e. with a variable resistor, MobiFlight cannot work with them.

One more question, if possible. Which display is better to use to build the FMC?

So far, the evaluation of analog inputs is not planned. However, it is possible to evaluate analog signals with appropriate interfaces (e.g. Leo Bodnar), which can then be used in the simulator. For this you need the registered version of FSUIPC.

Take a look at this possibility. I have implemented this and use it with MobiFlight. https://hispapanels.com/tienda/en/pedestal-b737/310-b737-fmc.html?search_query=fmc&results=11

I don't know what skills you have so far. So the question arises whether you shouldn't gain experience with simpler things with MF before you tackle such challenging things.

Question is the AddOn.... Does your FMC support Data to a "client" System..... Is it a "Outsourced Window" on main System ? Does it support Networks like ProSim or Jeehell??

Most users work with a VGA Display..... so the small flat screen is basicly a PC Monitor ( Whatever with VGA, DVI HDMI, or DP connector)
The question is..... Is this Monitor set to Flight Sim Computer or a network client.... Does AddOn support the "picture of FMC" to a client or only on FlightSim Computer ??

A Alternate is to work with a "touchscreen" ..... In that case also the Buttons are on the screen! Specialy beginners use this "cheap" solution with a maby 20-30$ App for Android and a nice Samsung Tab or a other Smartphone/Tablet with Android. .... For example for PMDG there exist a wonderfull APP solutuon for smartphones !
Good Luck !
